900 SE convertible "check latches"

Oct 07, 2006 1 Replies

When I try and open the roof an error message appears stating "check latches" according to the manual this means it is still locked into the top of the windscreen, or the catches are not fully opened, but it is unlocked and the catches are fully opened. any ideas?



i suspect it is one of the header latch switches. If the roof doesn't move at all then it is almost definately one, you can check them with a small screwdriver or pen. Open the latches and push the pen into where the roof meets the switch if it clicks it is working if it doesn't then it will have to be replaced. The fault will store a code in the ecu which will have to be cleared using techII.
