My 2001 325ci convertable bmw has the trunk light on. With it on, the electric roof will not work. Is there power going to the trunk latch. If so, which wire has the power. Is there a way to bypass this switch so the roof will work.

I have the same problem but it got worse. Traced the root problem back to the truck wiring harness. Many of the wires cut or alsmost cut through. Perhaps caused by grommet not being inserted properely into trunck access hole. pull back the harness boot from the trunk to body and inspect the wiring. My problem is I've got 3 cut brown wires. not sure which connects to which. anybody have a wiring diagram for trunck connections or a way to check how to match the wires back up. The other wires are ok as color coding is unique, just the brown ones are all the same? I have the same problem but it got worse. Traced the root problem back to the truck wiring harness.
