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.

Hi, i was replacing my top and now the top is stuck. When I engage it with the key, nothing moves, but there is sound. The compartment led moved back and forth but now its stuck too.......From reading on rennlist, i am guessing (Hoping) that nothing broke and its just a time out error.....
How do you fix the time out error? Do you just put everything back into place and restart the operation?
I manually got the top to close to put my hard top on. For those of you who manually closed the top:
Does the convertible light stay on?
How do I know when the compartment lid is closed all the way?
Do the side flaps come out?
My car is 1999 C4. Thanks for the help.
Oh yeah. My 2008 TTR has been in the shop FIVE TIMES for a malfunctioning convertible top. They have replaced virtually every motor in the system. It's back there today having both "flap motors" replaced - if this doesn't do the trick, I'm filing for buyback under PA Lemon Law. Really.
Thanks for the reply, when I was changing the top, i electronic opened the clam shell, when I tried to lower it it stopped ( everything else also stopped).... i manually lower the clam shell now, but the convertible light stays on....
