I did a search n got nothing about what i really needed so here goes. Just got me an ej1 to beat on with my hatch. the ej1 sunroof goes back and forth and when its all the way it makes a clicking sound if you hold on to the button. Thats my least concern. The real problem is the middle button to just pop it up wont work. Doesnt do anything when you press on it, but back and forth button works. Button messed up?

A lot of the si moonroofs you have to push up on the glass while you push your center button. Its usually the sunroof itself not the button. Mine is the same way lol..

might want to see if it is time to lube the rails, and other parts that been consistently used and dried up by the sun.

I don't recall if I got the lube from Honda or was it at your local part store with my parents accord monotonic maintenance I've done.

if you want to pay $$, you can ask the parts counter at Honda or run to your local parts store and find them. I just remember it was a white lube paste.
