Hi all My roof has started to stop before opening fully. It unlocks the hood raises the back and the hood cover, releases the front and folds back into the trunk compartment but nothing I do will close the final lid????
I have opened it manually and closed the latches and driven the car fine, but her indoors would not be able to do it if she was away in it so I need to solve the problem.

Any thoughts most help full regards Mike

Not a re set,,you can only do this with a battery disconnect.

It explains how it all works, you may need a fault code reader to pin poínt it.

I need an Email address, you can edit this out later

OK go back to your post and edit out the address,,, I have sent a few papers, on the sequence one you should be able to see where the fault is with where the roof stops,,the chances are it is a faulty micro switch.
