E89 roof
Hi . Looking for advice/ help . Yesterday my roof warning light came on. With the bong constantly going at over 28 mph . All windows work . But the roof won’t open . And the red light on the open switch constantly flash’s, even with the car locked . Pressed both switches while driving slowly and the close with flash green. But otherwise nothing . I’ve just had a battery fitted at kwik fit . Best price with coding . Not sure if coincidence or not . So I’m sort of guessing micro switches somewhere.

I had that issue a few years ago, although at times my windows would not operate while it was bonging. I also couldn’t lock my car as the windows would not operate. My roof would appear to lock in place but then I’d get the light and the bong.
I had a faulty sensor replaced on the mechanism and that rectified the issue for me. But the problem was intermittent for about a year leading up to it being replaced.
