05 CLK 320
Convertible top problem

Hello everyone! I'm hoping someone is aware of this issue. I recently bought an 05 CLK 320. Low miles in great shape. It had just gotten the top hydraulics refurbished. Well, I know now, that means the next ones go. Car gets delivered and first time putting the top down and it doesn't go back up. Hydraulic fluid in my trunk area, on the cylinders and not in the reservoir where it belongs.


Fast forward, I removed the lower hydraulics, sent them off for rebuild, filled it up with hydraulic fluid and... "Top Visit Workshop" message appears. Ok, now I buy the icarsoft mb 3.0 and run the scan.


Which leads me to my question... is anyone familiar with the following error?


"The control line to component A7/5K1 (open soft top relay(hydraulic pump, clockwise)) has short circuit to positive or open circuit"


I also have the error A7/5k2 close soft top relay, counterclockwise.


Any help is greatly appreciated! This was supposed to be a cool little weekend ride that has only been a coupe since receiving it.

Solved

It was a simple fuse loose. I then reset the code afterwards and it works.
