Hi everyone,
I have recently bought a 2004 CLK55 convertible so this is my first post.
When I bought the car I opened and closed the roof and all seemed ok. I have only opened it a few times since but now with the weekend of hot weather I tried it again and I got a problem.
The roof appears to open ok at the moment its closing it where the problem lies. The bow lifts and the roof comes out, closes and locks but then I get the "Visit Workshop" roof error on the dash and the light on the switch. The roof stops at the position shown in the picture. The strange thing is if I cycle the ignition and try again it closes so I'm guessing a switch is timing out but the roof seems to close to that point at normal speed and doesn't seem slower than before.
So, what have I done.
With the help of this forum I managed to get some information. I have changed both the relays next to the pump as I thought that maybe the problem but it still happens.
I have bought a iCarsoft CR Pro but I cant find any option on it to diagnose the roof switches.
I have the WIS/EPC but find the WIS complicated to use.
Any help with be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Mark
