Trouble shooting top with Top Hydraulics
Just wanted to share my experience with Top Hydraulics this past weekend.
I've own my 2010 370Z roadster for 3 years now and have had several intermittent issues with top not working. Was able to work my way thru them by watching videos on youtube, mostly the videos by Top Hydraulics. Current issues was if I left top up for more than few minutes it just stop working. Pushing button doesn't do anything. Manually open the top and everything starts working again. Sent Klaus Witte at Top Hydraulics an email Sunday morning to see if he could give me some guidance. 30 mins later he replied back with this seems like an electrical issues with broken wires shorting out. And he also specified the common issue and where to start looking. So I started where he said to start looking. The rear bow lock sensor wire. Less than an hour in and I found the broken wire. about two feed from the sensor where the wire goes down toward the driver side door. Pic attached. Really appreciate Klaus not just trying to make a part sale. Repair cost me zero $.
