Hi,
My roof will not close.
The switch does not light up red.
The micro switch on the boot cover seems ok and I have tested the relay.

Is there a fuse somewhere?

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.:wallbash:
 
Just discovered that fuse 7 was blown, i have replaced it but it blows straight away?
 
If the fuse blows straight away then you have a short circuit somewhere in the system.

First step will be to disconnect the hydraulic pump in the boot and see if it still blows fuses. If not then the problem is with the pump, if it still blows fuses then you will have to check all the wiring and switches with a multi-meter.

In the meantime, there is an emergency procedure for closing the roof in the owners handbook.
 
Got the roof working now the central locking is not working.
Think i need a stiff drink.
 
what was the problem
