Wow is that complicated---whatever, remove the spare tire cover and you should see the hydraulic unit which holds a total of 0.132 liters of fluid.

Look to the two oil level triangles on the pump---if the fluid is between the triangles then the issue is not fluid-----plus I would never repeat never let anyone putz around with the roof that is not qualified!!
