I was sure there was a way to disable the tension on the roof so that you could use the switches to open the latches, manually fold the roof and use the switches to put the rear cover back down etc.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Okay, it's driving me mad. Where is the DIY to change the 996 convertible roof to full manual operation? I've read it on here before. I've searched for a few hours now. I've seen it referenced on here about 10 times. I even referred to it myself two years ago when I joined! Newbie nonsense I know but I would GREATLY appreciate someone pointing me in the right direction. It's very sunny here in Atlanta and I want to put the roof down! Cheers!

POST 2Original post

I don't know if you "change" it to full manual operation. There is a procedure to operate the top manually in emergency situations. (i.e. your battery is dead and it starts raining) The procedure is in your owner's manual.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks for the input Frisbee. I was sure there was a way to disable the tension on the roof so that you could use the switches to open the latches, manually fold the roof and use the switches to put the rear cover back down etc. Anyone know of this?
