SL350 2013 Vario Roof not opening with Error "Boot Separator Not Closed"

[Sarang Nandgirikar]

Hello All

On a sunny day like today wanted to drive around in the top down but after the kept getting the Boot Separator Not closed" error on the dash

Tried to manually press the actuator and sensor atleast 7/8 times nothing happened

The boot separator was properly closed

Anyone had the issue before would be great to get some tips to get this fixed ?

It is possible to have the boot separator close but the micro-switch not closed.
I’d open the separator and check that the switch is closing and clicking

As Blobcat said, then check the relevant fuse.

Checked the micro-switch and the actuator on the top .. they are all depressed and the boot separator slots in place
Will check again , any thing I can check on the Dash ?

As it’s advising the boot separator isn’t closed I’d be checking that micro-switch that it’s actually working.

Also when testing are you closing the separator and listening for the click of the switch? If it does click can you make it click again by moving the separator in its latch?
