It sounds like it could be a transmission issue or a problem from the car sitting for a while. It's a good idea to have a mechanic check it out.

        I had the same problem. The Google Gods were good today and showed your thread first. Fixed all three problems in about a minute. Thanks!

                In the real world, this feels like a very expensive repair problem - so glad it's not! Great post!

                    your post helped me tremendously. thank you again.

                        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?

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.
                            I had all of the above problems, inoperable defrost, roof that wont open to preset conditions with a single push, and my trunk won't open.
                            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
