Error (Top Not Locked)

Asked by Chase Jul 29, 2017 at 08:51 PM about the 2012 MINI Cooper S Convertible

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a Mini Cooper a 2012 model. The plastic
middle part of the top inside came off and we we t
about fixing it. The top now goes up and down
without the plastic covering falling off. But now our
dashboard screen shows this error saying "TOP
NOT LOCKED" and dies the annoying beeping
sound.

Anyone know how to fix this? It seems that the top
is locked because I can put it all the way back

My 2008 Mini Convertible is doing the same thing. "Top Not Locked" indicator is lit and it makes an annoying ding while driving.
