2000 Toyota Avensis sunroof stuck open is their a manual winder handel

there is usually a manual way to close roof check in hand book you could try the fuse first it might have blown

From a previous post on the same matter .

On my 01 avensis d4d the electric sunroof gets jammed when I put it back, if you encounter this and have managed to get it fixed, do not ever put your keys in the ignition and keep the driver door open when you are opening the sunroof in future, thats the cause of it getting jammed.

This had happened to mine, my local dealer did not have a clue on the phone and the 40mile round trip put me off.

I can not remember how I closed it but it involved playing with the open/close switch with the ignition on and off, but at what stage I can not recall but it may be worth playing with it. I only use tilt now to save this happening again.

I worked out what the problem was by reading a older post. I found that the sunroof only gets stuck when u open the door whilst its being closed with no key in the ignition aswell. After a few days of fiddling with it i found that all u have to do is the reverse in how it happened. so put the key in and open the sunroof fully. then press the automatic button by keeping hold of it and pull the key out of the ignition and open the drivers door and it shut perfectly.

Hope it helps.
