Saab 900 convertible roof problems.

This week however the roof had the same problem. Had to repair the hydraulic system for my convertible top. After heavy rains the convertible roof leaks from the front and sides and it s horrible if i open the roof it floods the car. On a couple of occasions the roof reached vertical and bleeped.

This is how it s done. Here s how i operate my og9 3 top manually. Hi just bought a used saab 900 96 convertible. Saab 900 electric roof does not work.

I m 85 miles from the closest saab dealer. The water does not leak if the car is not moving with the roof up but as soon as i turn left or right water floods in from the opposite turn side. This is caused by a problem with the motor. Check latch problem means that the micro switch there are two one in each hole where the top pins fit into for proper fitting when closed above the windshield are stuck and one of them is open and the other is stuck closed.

I assumed it was due to an obstruction in the boot. Having rearranged a couple of bags i proceeded to close then fully open the roof. The motor bracket twists and binds when operating leading to eventual failure of the motor. I have a 2001 saab convertible 9 3 i m having roof problems.

I bought it with roof problems saab 1996 900 question.
