Mavrik Posted July 13, 2020 Posted July 13, 2020 My Zed HR (2007) convertible has been parked up for quite a few months (since Nov 2019) The roof was working perfectly before being parked up but now when I press the roof button to open, the windows go down but nothing else happens! The passenger electric seat also does not work which I gather is part of the sequence in opening? It neither slides or reclines whereas the drivers seat works fine... I cannot find any related fuses in any of the fuse boxes in the engine bay or drivers footwell. Anybody had a similar issue or know the fix? Quote
Mikey_S Posted July 13, 2020 Posted July 13, 2020 Battery fully charged? does the car start? May not be enough power for the roof? Just a guess as i don't have one myself Quote

jnkent36 Posted July 14, 2020 Posted July 14, 2020 I know when mines been sat for a while it will get stuck at a certain point during the sequence, i just release the button and repress it and it continues, after a few operations it's fine. I'd try giving the linkage a bit of a spray with WD40 and give it a tap to free up any stiction, anywhere there's a pivot. Quote

Doubt that's the cause seeing as the passenger electric seat doesn't work either Quote
ZMANALEX Posted July 15, 2020 Posted July 15, 2020 Check the wiring and wiring connections under the passenger's seat. Quote

I was thinking I may have to take the seat out to inspect... Everything was working perfectly before I parked it up I gather if there is a fault with the passenger seat, then that'll interrupt the roof opening/closing sequence? .... The car is at my Bro's (75 miles away) ffs Edited July 15, 2020 by Mavrik Quote
ZMANALEX Posted July 15, 2020 Posted July 15, 2020 Well, if you have the N/S seat electrics disconnected or if there is a bad connection the roof won't work. Quote
Mavrik Posted July 17, 2020 Author Posted July 17, 2020 I've just DL'd the FSM for Roof (RF) & Electric Seats (SE)... Hopefully this will enlighten me?!? https://www.nicoclub.com/nissan-service-manuals Quote

Thought I'd give an update on my roof/passenger seat woes... Turned out to be a dodgy main harness connection under the passenger seat! I ended up having to use my needle files on the connector pins & sprayed some contact cleaner & hey presto... Roof working fine & seat does what it's supposed to 😁 5 Quote
