Default Convertible top not working

The right tab has broken on the luggage seperator therefore my convertible top will not operate. I had read that a metal nut could be taped somewhere which would activate the sensor allowing the top to operate. Does anyone have better information on this subject? And pictures would be great! Thanks.

Welcome to the forums Gommel,

If you had included the Model and Year of your vehicle, I would have moved it to the appropriate forum for advice from members with the same model.

Please read the guidance for new members ( https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/n...ned-up-241802/ ) which answers many of the most frequent questions about getting started.

Thank you for the advice, but I had done all of this 1 month ago. I have already created my profile and picture of my car. I keep getting asked to activate my account…I’m at a loss.

Default Convertible Top Problem

Quick update. My convertible top to my 2007 XK would not open because my luggage seperator was broken. So I found a steel lug approximately 1/4” X 1/8” that fit perfectly in the slot of the left anchoring plate. I taped that into place with a piece of black Gorilla tape. Convertible top works like a dream.

So if I’m never going to be asked for my credit card, why do I keep getting asked for it repeatedly when trying to activate my account

Welcome to the forum Gommel,

Good to hear you have solved your problem.

Your account is clearly active as you are posting here, this forum will not ask for credit card details, can you post a screenshot of the screen you see?
I don't see any pictures in your profile.
