Hi,
After fully opening my roof, i.e. the red light by the roof open button has gone off, after a bit of spirited driving the light starts flashing again as if i hadn't fully opened the roof. If I stop and then press the open button for a while the windows go down a bit and the light switches off.
The car is out of warranty which is why i'm a bit hesitant about taking it in to a dealer.
Any ideas what might be up?
Thanks

yes, it is in the middle of the boot under the rear window. It looks like a bit of plastic where a pin slides in, that is the switch
