Hello Donald

How are you doing, hope everything is well. Try to ask a help from someone and ask him to push the roof down while you switch it. This can get it back to work again. If the problem persist, try removing the negative battery connector and let it sit for 5 minutes before reconnecting it. This will reset the system and can the roof back to work as well. If the said procedure doesn't work. It must be checked physically by a reputable mechanic to know the fault. I am suspecting that the roof hinge lift can be failing or bent and may need replacement.

Please let me know if there's anything else I can add or help you with. I'll be standing by for your response.

Thank you

Hello Donald

Good to hear back from you. I believe it's time to have the roof hinge lift checked Donald. If it's faulty, it will not close or won't fully open. I'll be standing by for your response.

Thank you
