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.

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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Please help me out here. I just replaced the hydronic rams on each side and refilled the reservoir with oil. The top was working PERFECTLY and quietly. I�ve had a dash light indicating the roll bars behind the seats need attention. I popped them manually and then reseated them and the light didn�t go away. It made me wonder if a prior owner had a hard top and maybe that triggered it. Here is where I�m an idiot- I took the red tool in the picture and messed with those screws on each side. Now the drivers side doesn�t function and the clamshell for the roof doesn�t close by about 2� I can mess with the screws on each side and I can get the roof to close and latch or drop but the drivers side flap doesn�t work anymore when the roof opens or closes and I think that�s what�s stopping the roof from closing. Worst part, I�m showing the car to a potential buyer tomorrow morning. I�m SO MAD I messed with this thing. Roof is currently down/open but if I close it and reopen it it doesn�t latch anymore and stays open a couple inches unless I mess with these screws. I searched the forum boards and came up short before posting. Any help if highly appreciated. Thanks from NH! Cory

Bump. Any ideas? I think I may have thrown a micro switch or something.
