Convertible Roof (01.17)

Description

The convertible roof system comprises an electrically driven hydraulic pump and six hydraulic rams, four for raising and lowering the roof and two for raising and lowering the tonneau cover. The pump is powered via either the 'Roof Up' or Roof Down' relay. Two further pairs of change-over relays power the rear quarter windows (one pair for each window). The roof hydraulic pump is protected by a 30A fuse.

The Roof control module is actuated by the roof switch on the centre console and controls the operation of both the roof and rear quarter window circuits. They can only be operated in a pre-programmed manner.
