Microswitch, soft top storage
| Microswitch, soft top storage |
During operation of the soft top, it is necessary that the storage bag is in its bottom position so that the soft top can fit in the space when folded down. Therefore, there are two microswitches in the folds of the soft top storage and these microswitches sense if the storage bag is in its lower position or not.
The microswitches are connected in series, so that pin 1 on the left microswitch is connected to control module pin 30 and microswitch pin 2 is connected to the right microswitch pin 1. The right microswitch pin 2 is connected to grounding point G36.
When the ignition is turned ON, the control module outputs B+ to the microswitches from pin 30 and when the soft top storage is in its bottom position on the right and left side, both microswitches are closed and the control module input is grounded.
Diagnostics
If the soft top storage gets caught so that one of the microswitches is “open”, it will not be possible to operate the soft top. If an attempt is made to operated it, the control module will send bus messages “Sound” and “Text information”, whereby SID sounds an acoustic signal at the same time as it displays “CHECK SOFT TOP STORAGE”.This project is supported by memberships and donations.
