Auto open/close not working on the Moonroof

Had the moonroof open while on the highway and it began to rain so I wanted to close it. Clicked it to auto-close and it closed halfway and stopped. I'm guessing that the roof thought the wind was a foriegn object. Anyways, the auto feature is now disabled, and trying to judge if the roof is totally closed or not is fustrating.

I've searched the manual and it doesnt tell me how to reset the roof. I've tried resetting it like the windows to no avail either. We're in the middle of a mini roadtrip and I dont have access to my service manual.

Hopefully someone will chime in before the next wifi spot!

According to the Sevice Manual, In order to reset the Moonroof Control Unit do these steps:
1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
2. Press and hold the tilt switch and turn the ignition switch ON (II).
3. Release the tilt switch and turn the ignition switch OFF.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 four times.
5. Press and hold the moonroof open switch until 3 seconds after the moonroof is fully opened.
6. Press and hold the moonroof close switch until 3 seconds after the moonroof is fully closed (tilted).
7. Confirm that the moonroof is reset by using the moonroof AUTO OPEN and AUTO CLOSE function.
