after fixing my transtop honda del sol crx 1.5 sohc japanese import (d15), this was the first test run.
It was the Tilter switch gears that needed re-aligned (the switch geared unit in the Roof tilter) that was causing a fault code of 3 indicator blinks from the roof ecu unit in the boot.

I had this car in New Zealand (Japanese import) in 1996. One of the coolest cars I ever owned. Also had a big-sound sub-woofer stereo system so as to do the roof lift while playing some good tunes. I guess one has a moment to impress friends, and this did it big time, back in the day. People would stop and look and take pictures. Hooray Japanese technology in the mid-90s =)

I've been driving my Del Sol for almost 28 years now. My only car. Honda should take more pride in what they did with this affordable, fun to drive car. They are awesome!

I've repaired that system at our dealership back in the day from outside bad work. As usual some ham fisted clowns buggered it up and they broke the gears in the lift mechanism at the rear of the roof, plus other damage. Its simple once you know how it works, that's the key thing right there,,,,,,,to know.

Simon it was fault 3 can you explain me what was wrong and how it reacted when not working. my sol has same fault code and windows go down but then it is stuck. i already had another switch geared unit if that is the right name in my trunk close to my trunk lock.. i want the roof to start working again..

MrHerbie1977 , sorry for the really long delay in replying to you. It originally didn't respond to anything, just error light. I had downloaded the Honda troubleshooting manual normally used by the Honda technicians at a garage. It is about 200 pages long and has flow diagrams to try to solve the complex system used in the roof. I started with the easy checks first then began with the more difficult ones which required to take inner plastic panels off to gain access to inner workings and gears. The manual was very detailed in how to dismantle and what to look out for. When I came across the geared unit in roof (roll bar section behind head) I noticed that the gears were aligned in the wrong place according to the pictures in manual. So I took them out and realigned them, put system back together and first touch of button it fired into life for the first time in years. Clearly my cars roof system hadn't worked for a while as every part was clearly almost new and unused. Hope this helps others 😉👍

hey henry, if i remember the size was 15" fitted with 205/50/15 yokahama tyres. I can remember the make of the wheels as they had been powder coated before I bought the car. very similar to Fox Racing FX004, or Team Dynamics Pro Race alloys.
