Cabrio headliner motor...
Cab guys,
My right side "lock-down" motor has siezed in such a way that the roof isn't completely secured all the way and I'm getting a lot of wind noise at speed. How can I manually unlatch this motor so I can retract the roof and remove/replace it? Also, can I manually latch it down tighter to seal the roof better, until I get a replacement motor? Thanks in advance

Not a cab guy but I recalled the owner's manual addresses "Emergency operation " on page 50
"...... 4. Operate the rocker switch until the indicator light goes out. If the electrical locking system for the top is defective, turn both locks with a screw driver until the locks are visibly locked. Indicator light off. The defect should be repaired by an authorized Porsche dealer." Make any sense to you? Me neither, g'luck. |

Yes there are two holes in the headliner that you can insert a screwdriver and manuaully turn until the mechanism is fully locked. It takes alot of turns. I took out the headliner panel so I could lock mine faster.
