Roof not opening - Please close skibag
Hi
I am wondering if there are several micro-switches for the roof on the convertible. I know the one on the ski-bag partition but the error in the display says 'please close skibag'. I have the ski-bag (sack) option, with the opening through the rear seat, and have opened and closed it several times (firmly) but nothing changed and I cannot find a micro-switch there.
I am pretty sure the struts for the partition are working fine, and the switch clicks nicely when closing it, and the struts feels firm, but the roof will not open.

I have watched this several times and it does not mention the option for the ski sack and any switches that might be located there.
I do not know it there are one, but have seen it mentioned in here a couple of times but no one pointed out to where it is located.
Also I might be wrong, and it is the switch for the partition that is the culprit, but in the video he said the switch it selves does rarely brake, and the partition closes firmly and i can hear the switch click.

I think it is the same as the partition in the trunk. I do not have the ski bag option, but when my trunk partition is not down I get a message that includes the term "ski bag."

Do you have to remove the side panel to get the seats out?
I am searching blind for the micro-switch for the skibag option on my car, and it must be hidden behind the seat back.

I removed the seats to get the side panels out as I was changing the trim on them. The seats are the first thing that needs to be removed. The lower cushions are held in by two bolts on the front. The seat back is a bit more complicated. If I remember correctly there are some fasteners under a trim panel behind the headrests. I don't know if you can access them with the top up. I had removed my ski bag this spring and replaced the trim without the bag. When I tried to open the top it gave me the same error you have. I put the ski bag back in and it opened properly. I knew there must be a limit switch but I couldn't find it. Good luck.
