Default Found the broken wires

Thanks to the guidance of Top Hydraulics and many posters here, my mechanic was able to isolate the culprit – see pix. Pinched wires causing a short. The wires are located on the driver’s side and attached to the hinge / arm bracket that lifts the rear cover. They run to the 5th bow lock attached to the cover. You have to remove the protective sleeve to expose the wires. They pinch just below the little black casing that holds the wires to the arm. 10 cents of electrical tape = problem solved. No thanks to my Nissan dealership and they’re “replace the whole roof solution”. I’ll never go back there again. Pain in the *** and poor design flaw but easily fixed. Big props to Top Hydraulics and this forum
