if its not one thing its another - top problem now

[ferrytrip1]

I have been away for a week and in my down time I kept wondering what my issue could be. So tomorrow I am going to reconnect the roof pushrods and leave the clamshell ones off. If I hold the clamshell open will I be able to operate the roof up and down as normal? It all looks like it should.

This will indicate if the transmissions are working under load.

If the don't I will pull the transmission cable from the motor and check to see if each transmission will turn by hand and check for binding there.

Any other pointers would be gratefully accepted.

Thanks

Simon
