Vauxhall Astra twin top roof not working?
Discussion
Pls help, I'm a girl! I was pulling the boot cover over and it sprang back and bit of plastic fell off left side and metal peg fell out.
I put it back in and taped round it with gorilla tape so end of metal peg still showing, but roof now refuses to work?
There wasn't a metal bit in right side of arm, but should there be please?
Someone said it may need resetting but manual doesn't say anything?
Vauxhall are useless and can't do anything without "plugging it in to see what's wrong"?
Would I be able to buy just a new end bit for the rod of the boot cover if it is that as I cant find the tiny bit of plastic that broke off, only the metal peg thing?
Any help appreciated. Thanks.

Presumably you’ve fixed it by now.

At a guess the metal bit makes a circuit or presses a switch which allows the roof to operate- ensuring it only operates when the boot cover is in place. Check the fitting - it might be the plastic bit was a spacer and now the metal bit isn’t making contact

Hi thank you, what happened was I had put the magnet back in the wrong way round!
Sadly as a chap was trying to have a look as I couldn't possibly do it myself....he let the thing go for a 2nd time, the magnet flew out never to be seen again!
So 4 chaps managed to buy some magnets and sort it 4me thankfully but thank you for getting back to me.
