I have similar issue with my mini. Sunroof won't open but I can open it on short. Whole roof playing with me because sometimes opens but when I closing it won't close because of front hinges are closed. Do you think it's same problem with wireing as you have?
Hi buddy. You sound like a Yorkshire lad. South Derbyshire myself. Think I may need to bring mine to your garage. I have an R57 JCW 2011 and the roof stopped working a while ago. Very rarely use it as I have other vehicles but I would never sell it. I have tried all the obvious stuff but still no luck. What part of the UK is your Farage my friend. Cheers Steve.
Just to be safe, make sure the latches that hook into the A Pillars are not broken. They have a plastic part that tends to brake. Sunroof will work but the top won’t go down. Also there is a micro switch in the back. (Well, there are 2 actually) where the hardback cover below the window seats on the left hand side. Make sure it’s making contact with the switch. Those are 2 quick things to check.. Good luck!
Thigh't wires ...., Mini coupé , rear spoiler wiring so tight , i wouldn't operate the spoiler because lost connection, Customer going nuts because the dinging sound all day long .he he🤣 cut the holder , solved

I'm having the same problem just when the mechanism lock opens and stops moving the soft top.
Can you advise me?
