Default 2012 Honda Civic sunroof won't close

Hi there
Got in the car yesterday and hit the button to tilt the sunroof open, and when we parked at our stop, the sunroof wouldn't close. It won't even budge.
I can hear a slight clicking sound when I hit the button but nothing happens. I'm not necessarily looking to get it repaired or fix it myself but I would like to know if I can close it manually myself without getting a technician involved.
I've seen videos of folks talking about a manual flat head spot in the headliner but I'm not seeing that in my Civic. Anyone have photos or video of what I should do to close this sunroof? Got rain in the forecast in the next day or two and would love to get my roof closed. Thanks y'all.

Try the steps in post # 4 (the 9 step process) in this other thread to try to reset and close the moonroof.

Appreciate the response!
I gave this a try a few dozen times and had no luck.
Any other tips or methods?
