roof not working

[shell]

ive had my car for 4 days and the roof worked fine though it sounded rather noisy when going over uneven roads,it always sounded like the passenger side clip was rattling so after dropping the roof to have a look i noticed the bracket where the roof spike locates was snapped and the plastic around the spike distorted so after putting some super glue on the bracket the roof wouldnt work so i did it manually,now all its doing is beeping if i open the clips.if i open the passenger side first there is no beep then when i open the drivers side it just beeps constantly any advice would be great regards shell

Sounds as if you may have got superglue in the micro switch.

thanks for reply,can it be replaced and if so is it a straight forward job.regards shell

[shell]

is the switch built into the bracket? has enright has got one or is it seperate?thanks shell

[Enright]

I've got one - I've just never had to attack that bit before, so I need to work out how to do it without damaging anything. Should be able to have a look when I get home.

[shell]

thanks enright that would be great regards shell

ive replaced the bracket and switch and its still beeping,is there a roof reset fuse or anything that i shouldve done,if there was a roof problem on my crx after finding the problem you took the back up fuse out and it reset the roof fault codes.regards shell

right im now getting the bong when i open the roof catches and no constant beeping,only three beeps when i lift the roof switch but thats it the windows dont drop or anything else,yet if i close the catches the windows work fine any ideas regards shell

[Enright]

The screen is across in the boot, right?

[shell]

yes neil ive done that,i was getting a constant beep once i opened the catches,then i went in for dinner and when i came back out and tried again no beeping just the bong as if it were starting to function

It sounds like you're making progress. Certainly replacing the broken bracket can only be a good thing, and if the windows work when the clasps are shut and the 3 beeps have gone away, then that ought to be a step forwards too.
I've not had to deal with any roof issues (yet) so can offer little advice as far as personal experiences go, but I did notice that if you click on the "Roof" hyperlink where it says "Portal » Board index > 206CC Forums > problems > Roof" above, then there are 9 sticky topics with potentially a lot of clues in them.
If it were me, I'd start from the first page of the top one and gradually work my way methodically through them.
I can only hope that that helps, but if you find any other broken bits then you're welcome to drop me a line because I've still got a full compliment from the car I'm breaking at the moment.

when i had my repaired its was the boots switches, but i got bong on catches but not lower windows or roof then once it did, then did not go back up... so it went to pug garage while it was there they check all switches and test nearly everthing else on it. the battery not very good got advised to change it as this causes so many probs with 206cc, the 307 cc seems to have few probs as well, advised by pug guy to drop roof once or twice a month. i took notice of the things he said as well as info on here and up to now not had any big issues with the car.
