In this video I have this Mercedes CLK w208 and i will hopefully be showing you the location of all the microswitches that are in charge or the operation of the soft top. I am still trying to fix mine, and if I find the issue i will for sure post it here.

Thanks for this upload, painstaking wire/microswitch sourcing! Very helpful, thanks. Hopefully this will help to fix my partners car!!!
From your experience, will a lowbattery also cause roof failiure?

[@DaringBeefcake]

the roof is hidraulic however it does need battery power to operate it. If you mean it still start the car but is old and a bit low on power, then i don't think this would cause issues as you can operate the roof with the car running.

Hi, how did you remove the cover for the wiring harness of the roof module?

[@DaringBeefcake]

If I understand the question, there is a metal covering the pump, the module and wiring, if that the one you mean then it’s help it by a number of 10mm bolts but first you need to remove the covering panels which are all held in by plastic button clips. Or is there something more specific you are asking.

[@youngirab3913]

@@DaringBeefcake Thank you for your reply. I meant the plastic cover on the actual connector itself. The one held on by the 3 little screws. I removed these screws but still can’t seem to get it off.

Thanks for this video. This was very informative on the locations of the sensors. Just to confirm, isnt there any on the rear headrests behind the seat

[@DaringBeefcake]

yes there is one for the headrests, I just didn't get to film that one, but yes there should be one..

[@mike-pn7wz]

Did you find the issue for that problem?
I have exactly the same, checked everything like you and don’t know further now.

[@DaringBeefcake]

Yes in the end the VDO was faulty. Here is the video ruclips.net/video/39Y5xojn4Qk/видео.htmlfeature=shared

Hi, thank you for this video it had helped me a lot! I believe my issue is from the broken wires as you described at 18:20. Do you know where on the harness connector at the soft top module i can use a multimeter to test this? I would like the test out the entire wire for continuity without needing to cut into the wires. Thank you!
EDIT: I have access to WIS, and managed to find the diagram/pin assignment. If anyone would like a copy of this reply to my comment.

[@DaringBeefcake]

Hi sorry I didn’t reply for a while. The connector for those wires go straight to the control module as far as I remember. I would love to have a copy of the pins if you still have access to that.

[@MrVinamp]

That is a very complicated system!

[@DaringBeefcake]

It really is, summer is almost gone and couldn’t get it going, now I have to try fix it for next summer jejejeje.
