Have you checked the parcel shelf is seated properly as there are micro switches beneath it so the car knows it will not jam the roof as it is lowered?

Your owners manual should tell you what the blinking light indicates. If you don't have a manual, check this website, you should be able to download one for free. Hope this helps.

Convertible roof not working properly

Why would the battery be disconnected for front brake pads? Did a garage do this? Srange!!!
Roof sensors and switches out of sync after battery removal. Needs competent technician and GT1 computer to sort out.

I have a 2004 mini cooper convertible. The roof opens to half way and will then flash red if i want it ti close all the way, All windows shut initally, but now when closing the roof the driver side rear...

I am not sure what you are trying to do. But if the problem is that the roof will only open to the first stage, sun roof, and no further, the problem is the package shelf in the trunk.

If the package lid gets pushed up and is not pushed back to it's normal position, the roof will fail to open completely. If you lift the bottom of the roof at the boot, there are levers on either side to release the bottom edge of the roof, you can make certain that the package shelf is seated correctly. Once the shelf is seated, the roof will open in all of it's glory.

I borroweD this mini cooper convertible and can't figure out how to get the top down

The car must be stopped before the top will go down. Simply press ahd hold the button just above the rear-view mirror. If you are out of the car you can use the key just hold the unlock button and the windows will go down and top will open to the "sun roof" position...release the button and press and hold again to finish lowering the top.

Mini Roof

yes i had the same problem with our mini Up until i found that in the boot there are two lever one on either side. The left side,has two little switches to allow the sunroof to open and close,so if the lever does NOT touch the switch the roof wont fully work or will open half of your roof and the red light will stiil flash.. as soon as you touch those buttons on the left side of the boot it will open.........RIGHT BEHIND THE LEVER NOT EASY TO SEE GOOD LUCK....

2004 Mini cooper convertible roof

Make sure that the microswitches in the rear trunk are all depressed. There is one where the parcel shelf (the cover that covers the view of the trunk from the outside) sits on the left that is usually the problem make sure that it is sitting on the microswitch (pull down on the closest side to you so it pivots forward and sits on the microswitch. Then make sure that the latch on the left side (drivers side) of the rear that allows easier access to the trunk switches the microswitch there. now close the trunk and try the conv top. the parcel shelf, the rear access latch and i think the trunk switches need to be depressed for the top to work. I know at least the first two.
