2004 SL 500 roof will not operate
My roof had been working fine with no issues but when I tried to put it down yesterday it showed the picture of the roof opening on the dash but a message came up saying "please wait" "see operator's manual". The trunk divider is in place, the battery warning has not come on for the consumer battery, yet it won't open from either of the switches.
