citroen c3 pluriel roof problem?

Hello,
i have a citroen c3 pluriel 1.4 hdi (year 2004)

I am looking for the position of the sensors , specially the sensor
who feel the closure of the roof.
I have this problem:

i washed my car, then waited for about 1 hour to let it dry

then i opened the roof (about half), and cleaned the car internally

Then, when i closed the roof, it reached the closure position, but the
roof engine didn't stop!

I heard a sound like "trrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr" coming from the rear window,
so i stopped to press the button

Worried, i tried again to press the button, and again i heard
'trrrrrrrrrr' from the rear window....

I suppose there is a problem in the sensor that realizes the closure
of the roof...

but the question is: where is it?

Thanks!

Hi,
I'm having the same problem with the "trrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr" sound coming from the back when I'm closing the roof. Now it is actually completly untuned, doesn't open or close completly. Did you manage to sort it out, or do you know how to close or open manually?

regards
