Roof problems are usually down to a micro switch.

I'm not too sure whether a diagnostic check wold throw up any faults there, but a decent auto elec would find the the culprit.
 
There are 3 small bulbs at the back of the instrument cluster which more than likely one of yours has gone.
Easy DIY job, 20 mins to remove cluster replace bulb & re fit cluster.
 
The magazine recently advised that the steering wheel needs removed for this, not so if you have an adjustable wheel.
