Unfortunately my newly acquired escort Cabriolet roof is not working at all, when I agreed to buy the car I was told that the roof went down but won't go up but you could hear the pump.But today when I tried it it doesn't seem to work at all. I tried position 1 etc as I read on here to no avail.

Wher are the fuses found for the roof?

Does any one have a proper wiring diagram for the roof circuit?

Any advise greatly recieved.

Thank you.

Thanks for you suggestions, since this post I now have a working roof.

The fault was a faulty 15A circuit breaker and the pump also needed topping up.

It's been ok since but I do wonder where the oil went but I'll keep monitoring the levell

Update, last week roof wouldn't shut fully, oil low again. Investigated further and discovered the "o" ring on the pump (motor side) was weeping. Replaced o ring now all OK again.
