2012 EXL Sunroof stuck in Open Tilt position. The power sunroof button will close the sunroof from the Tilt position, but will automatically go back into the open tilt position even with the power button being pressed.

Sounds like it needs to be 're-homed' or 'calibrated' - do a google search to see what method(s) Honda uses and see if one works for you.

errr... nevermind. looked it up:

RESETTING THE MOONROOF CONTROL UNIT
Resetting the moonroof is required when any of the following have occurred:
 The moonroof was moved manually while the battery was dead or disconnected.
 The moonroof motor was removed or replaced with a new one.
 Any Components related to the moonroof were replaced or removed and reinstalled.
 Wind deflector
 Moonroof glass
 Moonroof seal
 Moonroof glass bracket
 Moonroof cables, etc.
To reset the moonroof control unit, do these steps:
1. Close the driver's door, and leave it closed until the procedure is complete.
2. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
3. Press and hold the tilt switch, and turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
4. Release the tilt switch, and turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 four more times.
6. Check if the AUTO OPEN and AUTO CLOSE functions still work. If they still work, the AUTO
functions have not been cleared, go back to step 1. If the AUTO functions have been cleared, go to step 7.
7. Press and hold the moonroof open switch for at least 3 additional seconds after the moonroof is fully
opened.
8. Press and hold the moonroof close switch for at least 3 additional seconds after the moonroof is fully
closed.
9. Confirm that the moonroof control unit is reset by using the moonroof AUTO OPEN and AUTO CLOSE
function.

Thank you for your help AND for looking up/ posting the instructions---It worked like a charm!!! It took me a few tries first, because I was pausing until the dinging bell finished before repeating the steps. It should be noted that the repetition should be continuous, with no pauses, through the four cycles.
