HELP! My roof stopped on it's way up this afternoon! I turned the key off, waited a couple of minutes and tried again. It closed a bit more then stopped again! Turned it off and on again and it closed! Thank goodness. Any one got any ideas? Is is possibly a pump problem? The rooflight dimmed slightly when I pressed the button so it looked like it was trying to power the pump but it didn't make any noise or move! HELP!

It could be a motor problem, try opening the manual key, and then press the rof button, does the motor continue to run or does it stop again ? also what condition is your battery in ? is it starting the car ok.

I had the same problem, it was cured by changing the fuse from 20 amp to 30 amp as its a thermo fuse and as motor ages it takes more effiort to run thus thats why the fuse cuts out
