Now you say that, going down, it starts to move then stops.
WHen did this change? Was it after you bypassed the two sensors?
my dad bought the car recently and the roof did not work but has in the past, we do not know of the work that has been done previous.The fluid in the sump for the hood was low so we filled it up. We then by passed the switch above the passengers head. we have had the divider switch checked by a friend with a continuity meter, that is fine so we have taped it closed to make sure it is on. The pump did kick in at this point in the beginning even when the switches were on the car (not by-passed) but then did not for a spell. Now we are back to square one where the windows go down when the roof is unlatched, we then hold the button for the roof to go down and you hear the pump kick in, after 1 second it then beeps slowly and flashes red and the pump then stops. Have you got a picture of the actual lock on your car of where the roof latches/unlatches as when looking at the one on our car the sensor/switch seems to be constantly pressed down. For me it seems the roof will not unlatch from the lock and therefore causes the alarm
