Default ESC and Convertible top light won't turn off

When I put my down, there's an indicator on the dash that will turn on to let me know the top is unlatched. But when I put the top back up, it won't turn off. Then I have the Electronic Stability Control indicator on the dash coming up, and disappearing. Does the ABS have anything to do with the convt. top, or are they both just separate problems that I have to have the dealer check?

Default Disconnect the battery terminals for a few minutes and try again. Your ESC may be

a sensor, but the reset might help both.

Default May need to adjust the switch for the top latch, here is a thread.......

from Jeff that shows the switch, seems to be a common problem.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/tt/msgs/1528481.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/tt/msgs/1528481.phtml</a</li></ul>
