Post by: bigtow on 22 March 2009, 19:51:15

It thinks something is in the way, usually as you suggest though, with tight runners.

One of the arms that holds the pop-up windshield down on mine has rusted off, so the shield stays up and traps the glass when it's trying to close. This makes it bounce back and open back up.

Are both the arms looking ok?

both of the arms on mine are fine i can watch the rof close and you can see the wind shield part go down for the glass to go over and just as it gets to fully shut it opens back up again
