My sun roof is stuck open, manual operation doesn't work as it appears to be hung up or caught on a wire? or cable? How should I attack this problem. Motor still works but roof slows then jams and returns to full open position.

Myself and our vineyard mechanic only saw a slot to insert a broad headed screw driver and twist. Where is the T handle?
