Thanks for the map. The codes from the diagnostic connector led me to the microswitch. The combination of your map, the 80 page booklet of diagnostic codes I downloaded from a member here, and the W124 CD service manual, helped me find the problem. It just goes to show that you can't have enough information for one of these cars.
The top now works perfectly.

Hello Kestas,
Hope you are still around on this forum!
If anyone else has any idea what that “electric lead to microswitch hidden under the trim” is all about, please let me know!
I upgraded all my cylinders, reassembled back and am stopping at this same place. The rear bow raises but the tonneau cover doesnt close when doing a raising of the soft top and get stuck in that position.
When I do a top down operation, though, the bow goes inside the compartment, and the tonneau cover closes properly. Has to be some switch or connection that I cant find and its driving me nuts!!! Im an inch away from taking a sledgehammer to the whole car :/
Please help!
