you need the emergency crank tool to close it manually.

My sunroof opens and closes just fine, but I do not have the emergency crank. Anyone out there have a spare? I'm in Niagara Falls - on the Canadian side! Ian

Does the motor operate when you push the button? Does it seem like the sunroof is trying to close but is jammed?

If you have the little hand crank, try that.

If not, remove the rear seat and you'll see the cable drive mechanism. By removing a couple bolts ....they'll be obvious....you can remove the drive from the motor and slide the sunroof closed. Unless, of course, it is jammed on its tracks.

Cheers
