Hi,
If the light on the switch is flashing when you press it, it may be that one of the sensors that ensure everything is in it's right place is not giving the correct signal for the roof to be opened. For example if the boot open/closed sensor is saying the boot is open then the roof won't work. The classic is the sensor for the roof cover in the boot that has to be inplace for the roof to operate. Hope this helps.
Alex
