Question Cali sunroof, is there a manual crank?

The motor for my cali sunroof went out. Im talking about the cloth sunroof that is like 3'x4' or something. Its a 96 ti and i was wandering if there is a manual crank located somewhere and if the crank piece would be with the tool kit in the back where the spare is.

Assuming the sunroof is the same as cali top there should be a tool in your trunk and the motor is located behind the button on the roof to open you cali top/sunroof. Just take a flathead and lift up on that panel and it should be right behind there.

Correct. That panel is held on with velcro and when you pull it off, you will see a hole for an allen wrench. That is the manual operation for the California top.
