2010-07-31 Update Score 1 for 1 - retracting and storing the top on the first try with no hangup.
From the Cadillac service note: " ...found folding to position sensor not agreeing when in position. Sensor faulty. (Service writer told me it was a potentiometer. Makes sense). Replaced folding top position sensor. Recalibrated and programmed with latest sw. "
FP Number 19210515 Switch 14.483 That is all the detail that I can provide.
2007 XLR. I've experienced a problem with the "store the roof in the trunk" cycle not completing the cycle. It stops with the cover either still under the trunk lid or in place and the trunk lid in the air. If you reverse the cycle and put the top up, and then try again, it may finish the cycle. The car has been in the dealership several times but no codes and it didn't act up for them. When I started timing the cycle with the dash timer this weekend, I got a message "top is not secured" when I took my finger off the top down button. I found that there are two latches on the top that secure the top to the horizontal bar running across the trunk. When it wasn't secure, the latch wasn't latched and the top moved up and down. Not latching is the symptom. I set it up for videotape and got lucky and it acted up the first time. The 2nd try it latched and I have it all on DVD. Has anyone experienced this problem and know what the cause is or the adjustment that is needed to be made? Thanks for your help.
