    I ended up taking my panel off and finding the thing that’s moving up and down. It was going down and then stopping halfway. Sometimes my locks won’t come all the way up or down to let the top in. The header latch motor was my problem. Thanks so much for this

    Thanks for explaining this top from your job's & experence. It's important to close to stop rain. Using 2 wrenches and a new electric motor you fixed. Remove its fuse before replacing motor then afterwards reinstall fuse.

    @@myciaisha8978 It is under the fuse box lid beside the air filter lid. These are on drivers side in engine compartment, raise your hood. The fuse at top far right 40 amp & the fuse at very bottom far left 25 amp are the fuses. Option: If you can turn on radio & set clock after battery negative -- cable disconnect then only this is needed to remove all battery 12v power while working on this Chrysler Sebring

    thanks for this, my daughter has this car and has the same problem. i ordered a new motor but i read you need a bi directional scanner for when you install the new motor so the car knows where the top is (closed or open) in relation to the new motor. Is that not correct? thanks

  • @djgeo24

    @djgeo24

    Жыл бұрын

    Hi, you don't need a scanner cause the module knows where is the position of the top because it has sensors (switches) where it will tell the module of the convertible top what to do when it gets to cetain position

    Check the level of the hydraulic fluid in the pump, the pump is located by the spare tire, there is a video of some people that shows you how to top it up the pump with the fluid, there's a way to do it manually but you have to be careful

    Check where the pins from the top goes into the "holes" there are sensors that tells the motor to move when it touches, make sure the sensors are in the right place or they don't have a short
