Fixed!!!
Such a stupid issue.
The lever under the shelf ram that activates roof down switch.
That lever wasn't coming up high enough to activate the switch!
I assume there should be some type of plastic fitting over the end of it which I am missing hence why it was unable to activate the switch.
Cardboard and pvc tape to the rescue and it works now as it should.
Took a while to detect that one and thanks Ian and spit

What exactly is on that lever?
Is it some sort of rubber boot?

Re: Boot not closing when roof is in the boot!
With all these hundreds of microswitches throughout the roof system, is it worthwhile just buying a bag of the things and replace the lot?
Are they readily available? Does anyone have a part number for them?

Re: Boot not closing when roof is in the boot!
Apart from a few, there are no part numbers for the individual roof switches. They are mostly combined into electro-mechanical kits, which are presumably what the factory uses to fit the roof. I expect it would cost a small fortune to buy them that way. I think most people who need one get it from a breaker.
