Arrow Windows and top do not work, please help.

Hello. I just got back from a track day and before turning the car off, I set the e-brake and when I activate the ROOF toggle swith nothing happens. I try the up/down window swithes and nothing happens. No sound or motion. I checked both interior fuses (L and R windows) and the convertible top motor fuse in the engine bay and they are all good. All other electronics in the car work fine. Any ideas or what could be wrong ???

I seriously doubt that 3 different motorized parts went bad simultaneously. I would wager that the problem lies in a relay or the switch itself. In any case, you have an 07, and unless you drive over 36,000 miles per year, its covered in the warranty.

Any idea where the relays are located? I just don't like the idea of leaving the car open all night since I don't have a garage. If nothing works, I'll cover the car with and take it to the Honda dealer tomorrow morning.

Typically the relays are together in the engine bay. I know Toyotas better, but I would expect Hondas to be the same way. They look like blocks with two to four prongs in a box similar to a fusebox.

Problem is, there is no way to visually see if there is something wrong with them.

Dealer results: a windshield wiper motor fuse was blown. They don't know what might have caused it or why did it stoped the top or windows operation.

not getting your seats stolen while the top was down all night FTW!

Glad you got it sorted out!
