I have an 1997 A-6 AWD Quattro wagon. Recently after jump starting the car due to a weak battery, the sunroof opened and remained open, not matter what position the switch is in. I have since then replaced the battery, and entered the radio code to remove it from the safe mode. The sunroof remains open. I am wondering if there is a code for the sunroof that needs to be entered as well. Please advise

 

no codes for this check all the fuses and if the sunroof is getting power

 

I'v got an A*, not a 6, but, when *my* sunroof wedged itself open, it was due to something getting jammed in the track, and the crappy switch malfunctioning. I popped open the little panel housing the sunroof switch (two screws, located at the front, directly above the plastic lense, at either end) and used the allen-headed wrench hidden there to manually crank the roof closed (I could hear debris crunching under the onslaught of the sunroon slowly inching forward..., no, REALLY, I could). The switch is still crappy, but my sunrrof is functional again. Of course, my roof was "attempting" to move, while I fiddled with teh switch. But, yours should atleast have that wrench-thingie (it's a technical term) to crank it closed with, until you can track down the problem...

 

did you try closing the sun roof via the key in the drivers door lock?

 

Try spraying the switch with RadioShack contact cleaner.
Aftre spraying rotate, the switch back and forth.

 

take the panel down, first, or yu'll get contact cleaner spritz EVERYwhere!
