Rollbar lamp on and rollbar switch flashes (sometimes)
1991 300SL. About 50% of the time while driving the Rollbar warning lamp comes on and the rollbar switch lights flash.
Suggestions appreciated on checks, fixes or parts to replace.

Thanks, I will check electrical. For the 1991 I have an LED I can hookup to the plugs in the engine top left -- but by STAR diagnostic do you mean something more that I'd have to take into a dealership?

there are numerous electrical systems involved in the top systems and each of them can be faulty. A good computer diagnosis will likely point to the faulty switch,connector, position sensor. There are position sensors everywhere and one of them is out of adjustment or you have a (mostly) broken wire.
