Check the fluid reservior under the spare tire. Sounds like the hydraulic 
fluid is low.

[R129 SL] 1996 SL320 Soft Top and Roll Over Bar Indicator Lights






Hello,
Yesterday I had my 1996 SL320 detailed.  When the fellow finished the 
detailing he lowered the top which operated just fine so I am told.  When 
I arrived and decided to move the garage from the driveway back into the 
garage I noticed the red button for lowering the top was lighted - solid 
red light not flashing, and that the manual rollover bar indicator / 
activator was lighted as well.  The rollover bar is in the down position, 
the top is in the full down position, the boot is latched / locked in the 
down position.  I have checked the fuse, no problem with the fuse.  The 
top has always operated flawlessly, since I was not present when he 
lowered the top I have no idea of what if anything happened, I have every 
reason to believe the fellow did nothing wrong to cause this problem.  In 
any case, can anyone of you give me some clues as to what to check and 
what to do before heading off to the dealer or shop?  As I mentioned these 
lights are solid, not flashing.  No beeping and t
 he car can still be put into gear and driven as I was able to move it 
back into its garage space.  Any help will be appreciated.  I've had the 
car now for the past 5 months and love it!
