Convertible top engine run time adjustment


Recommended Posts

So few weeks ago I got a new top for my 99 convertible. Its a glass top little upgrade.. but now I regret it since I have so many other problems, maybe the glass it too heavy.

So the topped stopped closing properly. It will move into closing positing but is short few inches. So I have to stop it then manually pulled it down so it can latch properly. Then its fine. My top installer and top manufacturer say the top needs to stretch etc..

Today I discovered that with my PST2 when I do convertible top calibration the top will close right to the end it does not latch but it does go right to the end. I figured that because during calibration the hydraulic motor mechanism runs for 9-10 seconds while in normal operation mode it stops after 6. Does anyone know how to change the run time to 9. Calibration comes out as perfect the computer says done ok no errors. I read something in the manual about potentiometers and measuring something at each stage of the roof. I have no idea what that is and how to do it.

Anyone has any suggestions?.

1. I Could wait few more weeks for the roof to stretch more and maybe that will get it back to normal.

2. See if I can change the motor run time.
