Good Eventing and Happy Easter/Holdiay!
Today I've spent around 6 hours investigating the hood. I know that there's something wrong with cylinder F204 and I will replace it. But now I have a new problem that came from nowhere. Let me explain....
When opening the roof and pressing the cab button everything is fine until the segment when the hood lid is ment to unlock and raise. This is not happening, there's only a noise from the pump for about 10-20 seconds and then... dead, nada, nil, zero.
Same thing if I go the other way with the roof in the roof lid and want to close the top. Nothing is happening at all just a buzzing sound from the hydraulic pump for approx 20 seconds.
I've re-checked all wires, just in case and all are working. I even followed a recent forum-thread Verdeckklappe öffnet 10cm (surrende Pumpe) and the FAQ
Stellmotor Heckklappenschloss - Verdeckdeckel geht nicht auf .. mine is working
.
Now I am really in trouble as I have no Idea what is going on with my roof.
These are the latest VAG-COM codes:
01105 - Solenoid Valve 8 (N186)
28-10 - Short to B+ - Intermittent
00271 - See Repair Group 01
35-10 - - - Intermittent
I am stuck, don't really know where to go from here so please, please, please. Any input are very gladly appreciated.
One more thing...
I found out that I have two more relays for the power windows behind the back rest. So in total there are 4 relays (all with the number 203) plus the big relay (#363) for the power windows. The big one controls the buttons on the doors and the four with 203 is for the button between the seats. So the big relay #363 has nothing to do with the roof. Now to the mystery, as before down is working but up doesn't. I've cleaned and changed places of all 203's and still no go. I removed the power window button and manually short circuited. Down is OK but up just making a strong click in both relays related to down. So there's nothing wrong with the button in the dash between the seats.
I am really stuck here too as all relays are working but the power windows up-position does not I just can't find any relations as the only fault code is
1108 Relay for raising windows -J292
- Convertible top operation control unit -J256
So no luck in trying to repair the hydraulic, nor the power windows.
I am not very happy right now.
