When I put my roof back up there is a space on drivers side window and you are unable to open passenger door. However. the roof locks in tight. Any easy fis to adjust roof?
 
Sounds that maybe you need to index Windows. Your passenger side opens ok? You should see the window go down slightly when you push the door open button. If it does it on the passenger side does it do it on the drivers side?

I didn't think the top would work without the windows being indexed properly. It's worth a try, don't cost nothing. Next step would be to put a TechII on it to check the FT settings/readout
 
Just not enough information from JM to make that determination. I hope he provides more info so we can help him.

Thanks guys for reply's the only thing I can Add is the roof was working perfectly then the cover that first goes up hit the wind blocker and I think it somehow knocked it out of kilter
thanks again
 
Check to see top 1/4 glass is seating between seals not hung up on outer seal. Had to adjust both sides on mine. Need to make rod longer a couple of threads to bring glass closer to inside seal.
Hope it works for you cured mine. Mark
