As a Jaguar parts expert, I can confirm that the sunroof on your Series III XJ6 is designed to be manually operated in the event of a motor failure. Jaguar provides a special handle for this purpose, which allows you to open and close the sunroof manually. This handle connects directly to the sunroof motor located in the trunk, enabling you to easily crank the roof panel closed if needed.

This tool is not only practical but also incredibly affordable, costing just $2.50. It’s always a good idea to have one on hand for emergencies. You can purchase this sunroof handle conveniently from Jagbits.
