Hello i am from holland, ans sorry my englisch is not verry well.


Put a plastic rubber on the pin above de driver (micro-switch in the latching holes above the driver) when you make that pin(Claw) something thikker it will work.


I had it also with my TT Roadster.

i just went for a little drive in my "new" 01 TT convertible. honestly, its been beautiful in DC, so I havent driven it with the top up, yet... until it started to rain tonight. I noticed that the "power foldingĀ top" warning indicator light (on the gauge cluster) wouldnt go off while the top is up and locking in place (though it goes off when the top is down).




according to my owners manual... it says that I havent latched my covertible top properly... but I am doing it 100% according to the manual. Also, it recommended to manually lower the convertible top with the ignition off, and manually put the top back up (ignition still off) and it should fix the problem... but the light is still on.




anyone heard of this? i'm going to the dealership tomorrow... but only have 48 more hours until I can return the car without any obligation to purchase. this makes me nervous. please help!
