Bravo my good man! Can't say that I've had a chance to give this a go just yet, but I will say that I've been fussing with this damn top trying to get it to work properly for well over a year and no luck. This video has already shown me more about the top Operation then anything else I've come across so far. Thanks for the vid, big help!!!

Thank you for your kind words. Please note - There one sensor located above each sun visor, above the windscreen and these work in opposite directions (one opens when the other closes) also, sensors above the "B" post. ALL these can be accessed by releasing the roof at the front (using the allen key) and the front of the roof lifted (two people as its heavy) for testing.

Hello good video. My roof works to open but when i close it wont. It closes front and back wont go up to let the liftgate go down. Any idea? I fixed a broken wire on the pass side arm but nothing changed

11:00 not 100% sure but those wire connectors look like the kind you hit with a heat gun and they have solder in the middle. If used properly those are really good connectors. As long as any added wires are the right gauge and the solder gets melted properly. Out of curiosity, how do you recommend connecting wires like that? What is the "proper" way? I'm just curious because I work on small electronics, not cars, so I am just wondering the proper way to do it. Every time I do mess with a car there's electric tape all over the place lol.

amazing video, thanks a lot! Quick question, do you know what these sensors are called please, specifically the one you have shown in your video that detects when the storage box has been lowered. I'm getting a "soft top storage box not lowered, remove obstacles" error, even though the storage box is/has lowered

I have a 2012 audi s5 convertible and the radio, convertible top, and driver seat are all having problems. As you said about he water leak, I feel like that has something to do with it. What do you think? Any correlation between these 3 things?

You need a good wiring diagram. Check fuses, positive power feed and negative grounds to trace the fault. Scan car for codes to obtain a diagnosis plan.

Does,anyone have a recommendation for best software or diagnostic tool to use as a DIY to show the states of the switches? As in the video? Greatly appreciate any help finding that.

Launch pad 7 was the scanner used in the video.

So what did you actually replace? My roof randomly stopped working. Would it be a fuse?

Hi there, what type of scanner did you use to read the codes? my audi has the same error code but would love to test the sensors first before buying them as they aren't cheap, thanks 😊
