gbhrps Posted June 27, 2005 Share Posted June 27, 2005 Piranha, There is no fast fix to my knowledge. The Toyota Cressida (forerunner to the ES) came with a tool that allowed you to pull out a plug in the headliner and use it as a crank to close the sunroof. But the entire process disappeared along the way. It sounds like your motor has stripped a gear or the system has come out of alignment and is binding. Your best bet is some heavy plastic, duct tape, and some slow speeds while getting to a dealership, unless you feel confident at lowering your headliner to have a look at it yourself. Good Luck!

SKperformance Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 You need to drop the headliner to fix the gears Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
