Thank you, you saved me alot of hassle with fault diagnosis. I hit a big pot whole yesterday and they must of come up. Unfortunately I no means to get them down myself. And I definitely don't have a fancy camera. So workshop it is😢
Muy buen video. Ya veo una posible causa para no operar la capota. Tengo un CLK w209 2009. Una maravilla de auto. Mis problemas con la capota han sido por las botellas hidráulicas. En estos días le dio un fallo al motor. En relanti subía y bajaba de revoluciones inclusive manejándolo. Lleve el auto a escaner y no daba la falla. No había forma de escanear el problema. Mi buen mecánico desmantelo el trotter. Lo limpio bien, y resuelto el problema 😃
Hi I had same issue with a BMW 120. It was after craah detection. Mechanism to reset the head rest is complicated too. Forgot to thank you for the video
I found that the 6mm allen wrench works great to push those headrests down. Mine shows OPERATED. But they are down already. I used a metal rod before. I kept it in the trunk, bunt don't need it now. LOL Mu Autel machine doesn't have the yes ir no. It just says OPERATED. Well, I jist found if I pull them up, it says NOT OPERATED. So they are fine. The headrests pop up if you hit a bump too hard. I found out about that. Had to figure out how to put them down to het the top to work. Right now, I have a few B codes. B1928, B1953, B1933, B1926, B1930.

hi LM Auto Repairs! i have a vauxhall astra G 1.7cdti and i want to replace the ECU unit,transponder and the key with new ones taken from a car doner,i still need to programm them to my car or the car will start and work well with the new(second hand) ECU kit? will the remote control still opening car"s doors? thx!
No... The remote will not work... Why do you want to replace all of that? Why don't you replace just part you know is faulty? That if you know what is faulty... Is that the ecu? 👍👍👍

A guy at work coming in for the night shift had the roof down and hit a speed bump too hard. The head rests fired up as part of the roll over protection and he was stuck in the car park with the roof refusing to close. Cost him a lot of hassle getting his partner to swap the car over and a trip to the dealers. If only we had this video at the time…no we would not have helped him but would have shown him the next day as part of our “ speed bumps are not speed jumps” education programme😂
on my 2006 CLK350 there is a button on the dash to lower the rear headrests. Passengers can raise them manually for comfort, or they can deploy over a severe bump.
Thanks for the interesting video and I have a question? With my CLK W209 I can't remove the roof, just lower the windows and unlock the locks above the windshield. This happens every time after the winter. Nevite goes could be a problem?He constantly writes errors P 1928 and P1923. Thanks Tom
Look at the live data on the roof control module... It could be a microswitch, or sensor not feedback to the module... P codes on the roof module? Are you sure?
are thy power headrests that stuck up or triggered by airbag system. why were they up. left with more questions than answers. just hope some clown lifted them manually onto the catch and not naffed up the roll over protection thanks for vid luis
Help me please. My 2001 mercedes clk 200 kompressor top roof doesn't open all the way down. It just stop when the rear window is going down. What should be the problem?
@@LMAutoRepairs You have a button on the dash----it shows near the end of the video when you show the dash buttons, at 17:04, right side group, 2nd from left. I have a 2004 CLK500 and know that button well.
Perfect job brother I have the same problem… what did you use to push the switch inside the back seat ? Looks like a stick can you tell me where can I find it or buy it please ? Also I don’t have a camera like you did .. can I do it without camera? Thank you
Hi You can do it without the camera, it will just be a bit more tricky... The wire, was just a normal metal wire, use anything that you can use to push that tab... I can't remember where I got the wire from, but something like B&Q will have it... 👍👍👍
Thank you very much … actually I found the perfect piece to do the job in the trunk . Anyway it did work great without the cam . Also didn’t take long I finished everything about 5 mins . The top is working now thanks again
Had one of these when they first came out and it was forever at the dealers with faults of the hood mechanism and seatbelt extenders. The resetting procedure for the rear headrests was actually in the manual, had to do it myself once when I went over a bump while driving quickly and they shot up with a bang as they thought I might roll over. It had a party trick of failing with the roof halfway, leaving it undriveable until I figured how to do it manually.
Hallo my frind is a good video but i have one quistion as i know mercedes have a botton for the head rest i hope you can understand my english because i am germany all i want to say when press this botton the head rest get down best regardse Atef
I have an issue with my roof going back up. When I push button to close roof, a message on the Speedo comes up saying Visit workshop. It opened up perfect but now nothing at all. What could this be?
Difficult to say... You can inspect the mechanism and see if there is anything out of the ordinary... Otherwise, and best is to scan the car... that should point you in the right direction... 👍👍👍

It went over a bump too fast
Hitting a hard bump or pothole with too much speed can cause them to pop up.
Good job. Nicely presented!
