Convertible roof won't work if engine running

Recommended Posts

As the title states, the roof doesn't work properly if the engine is running.

One of the following three things happens:

1. Roof doesn't move at all when pressing the open roof button, solid red light

2. Roof unlocks from windscreen and moves back a couple inches before getting stuck

3. Roof unlocks from windscreen and retracts quite a bit, the rear compartment door opens but the roof gets stuck before entering

What's really strange is that if the engine is off, so key in ignition position 1 or 2, then the roof goes down and back up again no problem.

If there was a broken wire, I wouldn't expect it to work in any case regardless of whether engine is running or not.

I suspect something else is going on.

Anyone any ideas?
