Last year I got a good deal on a 99 C70. Love the car even though it has the worst turning radius of any car ever built. I am finding that little electrical things keep failing: the seat motor doesn't work, some sensor thing needed to be replaced, etc. The latest problem is the top. Every time I get in the car and start driving, a beeping starts and an indicator light tells me that the top needs to be re-closed. I push the top-up button, the top opens a little, then reseats itself. Anyway, before I take it into the dealer, I was hoping to hear from anyone else who had the same problem who can tell me what is going on. Is it a bad sensor? What? Thanks.

On the seat motors, have you checked the springs that hold a (for lack of a better discription) bracket that controls the seat micro switch?
