Sunroof opened a bit and then stucked

When opened the sunroof (for the first time since 20 years I guess)
it opened a little bit and then stopped - no back and forth , no noise.

I opened the small cover in the headliner and knocked carefully against the silver-colored relay but nothing changed.

Is there a possibility to close the sunroof manually ?

How would you proceed ?

When new they were supplied with a wrench / key in the tool kit to manually operate the motor - it fits in that hole on the motor in your pic. If yours has the original tool kit it will be in there. 2021 L405 Vogue SE 4.4 V8 DIESEL ~ #17

I've never seen a metal sunroof on a 322. Could it have been custom made/replaced or custom ordered?
I don't really see the point of this option though - then again I'm not a fan of an opening roof, but definitely like glass roof l=Oo\________/oO=l l:OolΞΞΞΞΞΞΞloO:l

Yes as said above you need to put the CORRECT SIZE allen key in the centre of the bolt hole and close/open it manually sir

OMG.... I looked at the ridges in the roof and still didn’t twig.

It’s in the Classic section too. That’s what happens when you just click on New Posts and go up.....

I’ll get my coat.....

Ok, issue is SOLVED now by a mechanic.
Alan key /wrench didn‘t help in that case as a cable was in the way and has bend something ...
fortunately the previous owner - a Range Rover mechanic - replaced the parts (even when it took a while).
Works fine now.

That’s good. Got there in the end. I’d need a working sunroof.
