I have removed the motor. The motor seems to be working okay. Is there a way to manually close it so I don't get rained on?

Good afternoon,

If you removed the motor, can you push it down manually?

It should close manually without the motor unless the tracks are seized. Try lubricating the tracks with wd 40.
