The Hydraulics went out on the top. I can put the top up and down and lock it in to place. but I can not get the back windows up.
I have filled the Hydraulic reservoir and closed the petcock. but no joy.
I susspect the right ram is not in the full closed. and hint as to where is is and how I can close the ram manually.

 

The ram is behind the right side rear upholstery and the micro switch is at the top. I had a erratic issue with the windows not going up and got used to once a month jumping the 'up' relay in the trunk.

 

Thanks
Sound easy enough is it behind the panel where is speakers are? How do you jump the switch?

 

The switch is not easily accessible, but the relays in the trunk are. This link gives the procedure: https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...-closed-71304/

 

Hi Brian, the instruction to lower the top manually requires pulling downward on the top hardware located in each quarter behind the headliner. this process will push the piston in just a bit to allow you to lower the top by hand. Yo have to expand the piston again which locks the top hardware ( brace) in the fully extended position before the rear windows will work. It is a safty. Hope I am clear enough.

 

Hi Brian,

Just curious....do you see any green fluid puddles anywhere on the ground?

 

Yea I had green fluid coming out of the light assembly. Jumping the relays worked great to raise and lower the rear windows.

 

I operate my number is on the website.
