Roof problem wont open or close properly

Post by malcassy »

Hi
My wifes 206cc has a problem with the roof which i caused.
The problem is it leaks quite badly, so last year i partly opened the roof and left the roof in the half open position while i was looking at the seals. when i had finished checking them i put the roof down but it wouldn't go back up. in the end i had to close it manually which wasn't a problem, but now the roof doesn't work anymore.
I know now your not supposed to leave it in the upright position but it was the only way for me to examine the seals.
What i need to know is their a reset procedure to get it working again?
The roof will go down but when the small shelf lifts up it doesn't go all the way into place which stops the roof. if you pull the shelf with your hand it works but then it wont close again.
any ideas please as a trip to main dealers isnt an option at the moment.
Thanks

Try following reap's instructions:

Next time I'd read the owners manual thoroughly before operating the roof. Most problems with it are self-inflicted by people who don't bother to read the manual first.

Thanks for the answer, i know i shouldn't have left the roof in the up position but i couldnt see any other way of getting to all the seals.
Thanks again
