2000E46CONVERTIBLE323CI Posted April 15, 2017 Report Share Posted April 15, 2017 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?
