BMW E46 Convertible Soft Top Not Working

First thing to check when your BMW E46 convertible top is not working. Other things you may want to check once a year to maintain functionality in your soft top is the fluid at the pump. Also remember to close your doors, have the car in PARK, put your emergency brake on and have the car running. Not all those steps are necessary but having the car running when operating the soft top is good for maintaining battery health and preserving the pump. If this video did not help check my video at the end of this video which will show you how to check and fill the fluid of your convertible top. Please share an update about your experience with the BMW E46 convertible top, thanks.
