Only advice is to take it to a twintop specialist, if no fault codes are present then I can't be much help.Īs this is more of a hobby than a full time job, I wouldn't take any fault finding on a twintop roof due to their complexity. There are so many sensors on the roof system any one of them could be working fine but in a position where they would prevent the roof operating. Steve, Unfortunately the twin top roof is quite a complex beast, probably why vauxhall have dropped it for the cascada. If you don't want to see these adverts after the first post?

I now get all the windows to move when operating the open roof switch and there is no warning beep now but the roof makes no attempt to move and the boot will not open via the button. I have repaired a number of broken wires in the LH boot hinge wiring and now have zero fault codes on all ecu's.
I am only able to release the boot by using the opcom PC command to release the trunk and the same has confirmed that the boot release button is working and seen by the ecu.
I originally had a beeping when attempting to open the top and a fault code relating to an open circuit sensor. Thread: tin top and boot release inoperable all codes corrected. A diesel version was available as well.Help Remember Me? Forum Astra Astra tin top and boot release inoperable all codes corrected. The base version was the 115 hp naturally aspirated unit, while the top version offered 200 hp. Under the hood, the Astra TT took only a few engines from the Astra line-up, but fortunately, it took the more powerful ones. The front seats were carried-over from the GTC model. Inside, there was room for four adult passengers, but with limited legroom for the rear ones. At the back, the trunk was easy to access due to an intelligent system that allowed the roof to be raised and allow storage. To make the car safer, the Astra TT was reinforced and achieved a 30% higher rigidity than a standard convertible. The raked A-pillars were similar to those on the GTC version but thicker since they were used as a roll-over protection system.
The Astra TT kept the same front fascia from the Astra J generation. However, the car was introduced at a bad moment, as nobody knew about the world financial crisis, which was about to start just two years after the Astra TT was launched and brought the Opel on the brink of bankruptcy. It was a more practical solution for its customers. Opel tried its luck with the coupe-cabriolet vehicles with the Astra Twin-Top. While the world started to appreciate more and more the coupe-cabriolet vehicles, Opel decided to try and introduce the same system to uncover the open-top Astra.
