Default SUN ROOF STUCK OPEN

The sun roof on my wife's 2001 A8L is stuck in the open position. She is down at our second home in AZ and I am up here in Alaska so I can't help her. Where is the crank located to manually open and close the sun roof?

The crank is located on the back of the fuse panel lid, passenger side foot well.

1. Place the flat side of the screwdriver, (found in the vehicle tool kit, trunk), on rear side of the dome light.
2. Carefully pry the lens downward.
3. Insert the screwdriver into the gap between the light housing and the frame in the rear on the side.
4. Carefully pry the lens downward.

5. Place the crank tool into the hex socket until the crank engages. Keep pressing down and turn the crank to close the sunroof.

Thanks for the help. She was able to get it closed without having to take it to Audi.
