2006 A4 Cabriolet Top Doesn't do anything light flashes
When I press the button to put my top up, the light showing the top moving flashes on my dash, but nothing else happens (windows don't move and decklid doesn't open.)
Now I say nothing happens, but if I turn off the car and then only turn the ignition on, but not start the car and then press the button, I can here something happening back around the decklid (assuming it's unlocking it or something) it lasts for about 1 second, and then it won't make the sound unless I turn the ignition off and back on. Then it will again just do it once.
After several key cycles, opening and shutting the door, putting the windows up and down and sometime needing to drive it, the top will again work sometimes several times just as normal, and then it starts this just flashing not moving thing again.

Update, after I manually put the top up, and I put it down with the switch again it doesn't finish the down cycle. When the top is almost done, it doesn't put the windows up, I am not sure if the compartment latches down or not.

It's the sensor...
<a href="http://www.dognmonkey.com/audi/fix-g356-top-frame-position-sensor-audi-cabriolet.html" target="_blank">Try to see if it's the G356 sensor fell out of place or broken</a>.
