Default Sunroof problem - 95ex

I recently got my car out of the impound, and for the 30 days it was in there a good amount of rain had fallen. Now, when I first tried opening the sunroof after all this, it would raise only enough to retract back-which scratched the top of my car. I can hear what sounds like the motor running, but now it wont raise at all. I've never had a problem with leaking, but I guess what I want to know is, is there any way to remedy this?

Try drying it out completely and using some lithium grease to lube up the tracks.

I cant seem to reach the track to put on any type of lube. I tried Wd40 to loosen it up, but nothing works.

Hm.... Mine sticks a little when I'm in the car. I just have to give it a slight push to get it going. Have you tried that?

Yeah, I have. And I started to push the glass it self of the rim. Now I'm a little concern because I've read threads about how some people had their sunroof fly of while on the highway.
