- CLK 320 Convertible
Hi All,
I have recently purchased a CLK 320 convertible (1999 model), one owner, low K’s, bright red, so yes it’s your typical mid life crisis car.
At the weekend I was giving it a good polish, and raised the bow to allow me to polish the cover at the back….. it now looks fantastic, but the bow slowly dropped back to an almost closed position, and now the roof switch will do nothing, when I use the handle at the front, the windows still drop, and the switch lights up, but if I try to operate it, I just get a slow flash on the switch and nothing moves.
Also the boot will not open (switch or key)
Is it just a case of putting enough weight on the bow to lock it down into position?
Please help we have some good weather coming up.
Doug
