It is the motor cog slipping on the cables.
Either the cables or pulley or both are worn allowing slippage.
The motor only stalls at close, there is no cut off switch! It is a very powerful motor and can easily force the cog round if there is wear.
Inspection of the cog and cables in the roof behind the interior light should reveal the problem.

Hi Rob.
Nice to see you posting on the zone, hopefully the above will be ok and it's just the fact holding the switch is not needed. ?

Thanks for the replies was hoping there would be a cut off switch which I could replace but at least I know the score now .
it happens mostly when shutting the roof whilst driving and just reaching for the switch , due to other engine and road noise I tend to just hold the button until I know it’s closed as easy to leave it slightly open otherwise
