Oh! Would you look at that!!! ……I’m a complete Moron Thank you to everyone who took the time to respond with advice. It is much appreciated

Just supposing, that at the very outset of these problems I’d refreshed the wiring to the hall sensor……..and just supposing that maybe, potentially I might have got the polarity of the wires wrong……..and completely pit that possibility out of my (tiny) mind Surely that wouldn’t have caused any...

Aah ok, appreciated, thankS

This is really helpful, thanks Interestingly I’ve done a functional check on the roof in ISTA to check hall sensor and microswitches. Shell 2 microswitches showed as working fine. But at no point did the hall sensor show an ‘energised’ state I tried manually placing a magnet on and around...

Soooo. Still plugging away with this I suspect misalignment based on this…… Anyone got experience of re-aligning the roof??

Hi! Good to compare notes 😂 I’ve deliberately had a day off it today, but last night I cleaned the grease off all of the pivot points and blasted microswitches and hall sensors with contact cleaner. Interestingly After I did that I pulled the power connector on the roof locking motor and got 2...

Thanks, I’m a Dab hand at manually unpacking and packing the roof so I’ll do that and clean up I’m prone to this kind of idiocy. In January I was cleaning oil seepage from the valve cover and managed to remove all of the lubricant from the steering rack u joint. I’ve been car repairing for...

Thanks for sharing that. I did check it with ISTA D but I didn’t know the correct sensor values…..until now! Really appreciate that

So, I’ve unpacked the roof manually and got it to the midway point of the opening cycle. When I press the open button from here section 3 is trying close instead of open. It’s like the CTM doesn’t know where it’s at in terms of the cycle

Hey everyone, just wondering if anyone has had and can advise on a weird roof issue I’ve picked up! Currently, I press the open roof button, section 2 releases and moves into position on top of Section 1. The motor keeps running but the roof locking mechanism does nothing. I’ve tried measuring...
