Default Re: Convertible Top Sensor Beep

I don't know how to check sensor which indicates that D-ring latch handle is latshed.
There is one way to test that sensor.

1) Start engine.
2) Put top up all the way, put windows up all the way.
3) Wait for beeping to stop if it will stop; move car, drive it, if that makes beeping stop.
4) Keep engine running, stop moving car.
5) Turn D handle - if windows go down, sensor is OK.
If the windows do NOT go down, you found your problem- the sensor is bad.

If the sensor tests OK, then some other sensor or item is preventing the top module from thinking that the top is up all the way and the cycle is complete.
