Soft top lights not going/no motor sound

Post by mrw187 » Mon Aug 20, 2018 2:46 pm

Just randomly my soft top no longer works.
Me n my mate we checked the 3 fuses but they looked fine.

There is no light at all by the soft top buttons whether car is stationary or not when the buttons are pressed and no motor sound of any kind.

Is there another common place break in the circuit or is it possible the motor is dead?

Thanks.

my guess would be that its this has failed...

Its located under the rear panel behind the passenger seat. Simple to change out.

I had the problem you described and i nearly went mad trying to figure out what it was; eventually diagnosed the module.
