I stopped the roof halfway open, to repair micro switch.
from then on the roof slowly dropped down into the boot.
When i tried to close the roof it would not work.
I closed the roof manually as described in the manual.
Now when you unlock the roof it bongs as it recognised the roof is unlocked.
Press the roof switch to open, the windows drop and then the motor operates for a few seconds,but then stops as nothing else as happened, then i get a quick succession of beeps, and thats it.
Has anyone had the same problem?
Thanks.
Andrew.

HI Capncol.
Yes tighten the release valve.
Thinking when roof sagged back into boot, maybe seals blown?
Thanks Andrew

Re: Roof wont work after manual closure.
If you also switched the white hooks back to auto and it still doesn't work, try another manual down / up which should dispell any air in the system.
