Roof Motor Fixed - Flashing Red Light!!!

Post by Enace » Tue Apr 24, 2018 10:59 am

Hello,
Could you help me with some ideas about my problem? It is an E85 2006. The softop goes fully down but the red light keeps blinking and the motor sounds like working. Seems like it is not fully locked down or something. I ve tried greasing the soft top mechanism, i ve tested the trunk microswitch.
Thank you,

You tube has a good show of it
How can I search it ? I have exactly the same problem

I can't recommend BMW Vines of Redhill enough, very helpful and professional!
Bro my micro tiny sensor is loose because the part where have to be placed is broken, please could you help me? :?
