CLK430 Convertible Top
I have read the threads dealing with problems convertible top and this is my issue:
First of all the pump was leaking and it was sent to Top Hydraulics to get repaired. I installed the pump and refill with fluid and now it does the following:
When I try to open it releases the soft top lock but when it goes to the second lock to open the compartment where the top gets stored it does not open (may is bad), could a bad relay do this? Everything else work. Please someone help? Thanks.

Sounds like the switch that tells computer that the bow is raised is not functioning correctly, if the computer does not know that the rear portion of top is raised then it will not release latch for the compartment cover
