Default Re: Top, and trunk light issues

But in 06 or 07, things changed and the trunk light was activated separately.

If the top wont' go UP or DOWN, the cause is usually related to the CLP/SSM.

I can tell you this: The divider sensor and top open switch (over the passenger's head) DO NOT play a role in the top going UP just going DOWN. So, if the top won't go up or down, the divider switch is NOT the issue. I think you may be onto something about the trunk sensor. "Shamrock" on this forum encountered a bad trunk latch switch some time ago and replaced the entire assembly from a junk car and fixed his top.

But again, a water damaged CLP/SSM will also cause the top to not work. Usually, the locks in the car will be acting weird or not working at all, in such cases.
It did have door locking and unlocking issues as well, i just thought it was a bad keyfob.

Thanks so much for your help!
