Crossfire roadster, strange ignition problem, please help.
 

hi, i have a 2005 drossfire roadster. the problem i am having is when i turn the ignition to start the engine.
When the ignition is in the on position it appears everything functions properly (all roof functions, window defrost), however when i start the car the roof doesnt operate, only the lamp flashes, when moving the windows start to fall and the rear window defrost doesnt light up.

any ideas, thanks:mad::mad::mad:

Have you doublechecked the divider position?

If I was you I would keep this post with the initial post you did on this forum, that way what has been done before can be seen. Otherwise the same hints will be given to you again, this is not productive.
You said the window problem had been solved before and now it appears not to be solved.

Hi will do in the future.
The divider is in the correct position

hi, i have noticed this
if i hold the roof switch down at the front, all works fine,
what happens if it is held in this position for long periods

If the button you are talking about is the roof button then yes you have to hold it down all the time the roof is moving. There is a part that can be installed to make it operate without the constant finger on the button.
I have not got a roadster but that is what I have gathered.

Thanks for the reply however I think you misunderstood my question. I have to press and hold the button constantly while driving to stop the Windows edging down, and this also enables the spoiler and rear demister to function.

I figured I had not answered the question correctly, now the spoiler is in the mix.
The common question for you now is the age of the battery?
Bad batteries give funny symptoms.

hi, i am not too sure on the age of the battery, but at rest it shows 12.7 volts and goes up to 14.5 when running
