Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

I had the same issue with my Audi TT - took five fixes before they finally got it right (and replaced every motor and sensor in the car)!!

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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Break on, doors closed and no activity when you push the button. Anyone have ani ideas? Thanks

POST 2Original post

Motor? Sensors? I had the same issue with my Audi TT - took five fixes before they finally got it right (and replaced every motor and sensor in the car)!! Good luck.

POST 3Original post

More details please.... Do you see the handbrake light on? Is the top light coming on and flashing? There are tons of possibilities...my first stab at it would be your handbrake switch.

POST 4Original post

I was just on Renntech and saw this thread about power top hydraulic fluid levels: http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=6967

POST 5Original post

I am offering no help - all I could think of was Viva - Viagra sorry

Yeah...I did this fix thinking that the entire system is hydraulic. It actually isn't. Only the actual main top is actuated with 2 hydraulic arms (left and right). The clamshell, and the 2 side flaps move via electric motors (3 motors in total). My driver side flap motor had died.

POST 7Original post

is your engine lid closed??? had this happen to me....

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Ok, after I put my stuff in the trunk and went into the store I came back out and it started working. Totally wiered. I appreciate the help. Sorry for a false alarm.
