Hi.

Thanks for the reply!

Do you think that this tool (Amaz*n) would complete a deep enough scan of the roof codes to get started or should I take to the local dealership as they might be able to do a deeper dive and/or see something different?

I took a better look at it yesterday and confirmed that the top frame bracket supports broke off (I will get some pictures to post --- and not sure why this happened). I have a replacement for one side which came with the car and ordered the other one and waiting on that.

Things to note:

* Side flaps stuck in open position
* Can hear a click in the control unit both with dash switch and trying the key in the door.
* Dash light for the top is on (even with the hardtop secured). Leads me to believe it thinks the top is open all the time. When you hold the dash button it flashes 3 times and pause, then 3 times, etc.,

Totally agree that scanning the car will help to pinpoint the problem areas.

Any thoughts are greatly appreciated!
