Diagram ref no 6
Designed to replace a worn, damaged or faulty original switch, this component helps restore reliable operation of the vehicle's electrically operated sunroof or convertible roof system, depending on the vehicle's original equipment.
An ageing or defective switch can cause intermittent operation or prevent the roof mechanism from responding correctly, making replacement an important part of maintaining the electrical roof controls on classic Porsche models.
What Does the Sunroof / Convertible Top Tip Switch Do?
The switch provides the driver with an electrical control for operating the sunroof or compatible convertible top mechanism.
When activated, it sends an electrical command through the vehicle's roof control circuit, allowing the appropriate motor or control system to operate.
Correct switch operation is important for convenient and reliable opening and closing of the roof.
Why Does It Fail?
Over time, electrical switches can deteriorate through repeated use, ageing and exposure to environmental conditions.
Common causes of failure include:
- Worn internal electrical contacts
- Corrosion or oxidation of switch terminals
- Damaged or weakened internal mechanisms
- Cracked or damaged switch housings
- Loose or deteriorated electrical connections
- Wear caused by repeated operation
These problems may result in inconsistent electrical contact or complete loss of switch operation.
When Should It Be Replaced?
Replacement is recommended when the original switch becomes damaged, unreliable or no longer operates correctly.
Common symptoms include:
- Sunroof or convertible top failing to respond to the switch
- Intermittent roof operation
- Switch working only when pressed in a particular position
- Loose or damaged switch mechanism
- Visible cracks or deterioration
- Inconsistent operation despite a functioning roof motor
Before replacing the switch, check the relevant fuses, wiring, electrical connections and roof operating mechanism to confirm the cause of the fault.
Installation Notes
Before installation, disconnect the vehicle battery according to the Porsche workshop procedure.
Carefully remove the original switch and inspect the electrical connectors and surrounding wiring for corrosion, damage or loose connections.
Fit the replacement switch securely and ensure the connections are correctly seated.
After installation, test the roof operation and confirm that the mechanism responds correctly.
If the roof remains inoperative, further inspection of the motor, relays, wiring and mechanical components may be necessary.
Porsche 911 & 964 Sunroof Switches, Convertible Roof Controls and Electrical Parts
The sunroof and convertible top control switches fitted to classic Porsche 911 and 964 models form an important part of the vehicle's electrical roof operating system.
After decades of use, original switches may suffer from worn contacts, corrosion or internal mechanical deterioration, resulting in unreliable or intermittent roof operation.
The OE Match sunroof / convertible top tip switch provides a replacement solution for compatible Porsche 911 models manufactured between 1965 and 1989 and Porsche 964 models from 1989 to 1994.
Also replacing the earlier Porsche reference 91161362200, this switch is suitable for maintaining the original electrical roof control arrangement where specified.

OEMatch Roof / Sun Roof Switch — Fit, Function, Confidence
Roof and sunroof switches provide the driver interface for opening and closing convertible tops, retractable hardtops and electric sunroofs on Porsche models. They convert a tactile input into low-voltage signals for the roof control unit, coordinating motors and safety interlocks. OEMatch lists over 4,000 part numbers and more than 8,700 OE cross-references and continues to develop new items for Porsche applications.
Understanding OEMatch Roof / Sun Roof Switch
OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts are made by the same company that produced your Porsche’s original roof and sunroof switch. OE (Original Equipment) refers to parts matching original specifications for the roof and sunroof switch and may be supplied by alternative manufacturers. Aftermarket parts offer alternative options, sometimes with enhanced features or better value. OEMatch supplies non-OEM roof and sunroof switches engineered as direct-fit alternatives to OEM parts, made to original-spec dimensions and tolerances for Porsche models.
The switch itself sends a signal to the roof control module when pressed; the module then drives motors, checks sensor inputs and enforces interlocks such as anti-pinch and comfort-close. Proper operation depends on clean electrical contacts, sound internal mechanics and secure connectors to the vehicle loom.
Available Types
- Standard replacement switches for roof and sunroof actuation
Benefits Include
- Restored, predictable roof movement and responsive tactile control
- Reduced risk of interlock faults that can hinder operation
- Preserves switch illumination and factory appearance where fitted
Why Roof / Sun Roof Switch Wear and Fail
- Worn or oxidised contacts that reduce conductivity over time
- Moisture ingress or corrosion from roof leaks or humidity
- Broken internal mechanisms from repeated use or impact
- Connector or wiring faults causing intermittent signals
The Importance of Replacing with OEMatch Roof / Sun Roof Switch
A defective switch can leave a roof or sunroof stuck, operate unpredictably or prevent interlocks from functioning, which in turn affects safety and sealing. Replacing the switch restores correct signalling to the control module, helps maintain interlock and anti-pinch behaviour and reduces the chance of further electrical or mechanical damage to the roof mechanism.
Advantages
- Direct-fit replacements engineered to match original dimensions and tolerances
- Designed to fit original mounting points and clearances
- Compiled to reflect original specifications and procedures where applicable
