[gooner1]

1994 E36 conv, what is the best way to open and close an inoperative automatic electric roof?
TIA.

Thanks but my roof is stuck in the closed position, Google links appear to be for the open position.

Do you have the allen key tool? It's located inside the boot. Just above the rear view mirror there is an mechanism which allows you do to this,

Check the boot is properly closed and latched, including the operation of the central locking microswitch on the boot lock. If the roof system reads the boot as "open" it won't function.

Sorry if this is a bit basic / teaching you to suck eggs, it caught me the first couple of times I hadn't properly shut the boot.
