I'm having a similar but slightly different issue.
I tried the reset procedure but my roof won't open all the way. It will go to the 2/3 position. When I close the roof it tries to latch over and over.
Has anyone experienced this? Any ideas?- Top

cmj912 - Thanks for the post. Resetting the roof was the key to fixing the problem. After posting my message on the USA forum, I went over to the UK forum and searched for the same problem. I figured because the 500c has been around in Europe for quite a bit longer the problem had to have happened before. I found a number of examples and it was an easy matter of resetting the roof by opening and closing the roof in a certain sequence. It did the trick and all is right with the world again. At least with the 500c in my garage.
For those with a 500c, an inoperable rear defrost and/or a roof that won't open to preset positions with a single quick push or a trunk that will not open are signs that the roof needs to be reset. Thanks UK forum.
Resetting the roof correcting the roof preset problem, but my trunk will still not open.
Should I try the reset again or is there something else I can do? I have a 2012 Fiat 500c Gucci- Top
