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.

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

POST 2 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

well they say even at 50 everyday is a school day today ive learned that 1 im a complete plum 2 the handbrake has to be on to close the roof all sorted thanks

POST 3Original post

Dont worry about it .. we all learn ( i still do after all these years on this model ! ) .. if it stops again then confirm the dash light for the handbrake is illuminating .. these switches can sometimes fail which will stop the roof from working . On a side note .. if the roof opens but stops 3/4 way back .. your side flaps or one of them is sticking and as a safety measure the roof will shut down .

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
