&lt;&lt;Top motor re-sync procedure&gt;&gt;<br>
<br>To the left of the motor that controls the top (far
right motor) there is a black control box that has (4)
relays (coils). Check these (4) coils with a 12v tester
for power with the ignition key on. If all of these
have power then it is possible to get power to the
micro switches. If these relays do not have power, then
you'll need to either swap out the control box or
troubleshoot the wire harness by doing some continuity
checks.<br> <br>The reason the top does not work is because
there is no power to the micro-switches, I'll
explain.<br> <br>Power to the micro-switches is controlled by
the lid motor lock mechanism. The lock mechanism is
controlled manually by the allen wrench. When the lid is
locked and the lid motor engaged the switches will have
power (you'll notice that when you lock the lid, the
lid motor assembly swings in and out slightly). When
the lid is locked it swings the motor closer to the
body of the car and completes the ground for the micro
switch. The problem is, it is very difficult to get both
the lid locked and the lid motor engaged. They must
be done simultaneously. If you have power to the
relays, here is how to get power to the
micro-switches.<br> <br>This is easier with two people....also make
sure the ignition key is on<br> <br>Disengage all the
motors (unlock the lid mechanism, disengage the lid
motor and the top motor)<br> <br>Undue your top from
the front window and push it up like your going to
put the top down with the switch<br> <br>These have
to been done in this order.<br> <br>Re-engage the
top motor (far right) have someone slowly lift the
back window until you can seat the top motor in.<br>
<br>Now the hard part...<br> <br>You have to lock the lid
mechanism with the allen wrench and engage the lid motor at
the same time. It took me several tries at this. Try
locking the lid half way, then pushing in the motor half
way and play with it until the motor pops in and the
lid locks at the same time. <br> <br>If you were
successful you can turn the micro switch adjustment screw
(located to the left of the allen lid lock point). When
you turn the adjustment screw you'll hear a click
when the switch turns on or off, you'll have to listen
carefully. If you don't hear a click then you have to
disengage the lid motor and unlock and try again. If you do
hear clicks while turning the adjustment screw, turn
the screw all the way to the left and slowly turn to
the right until you hear a click. Then test your top,
does it work? If not turn the screw all the way to the
right and slowly turn to the left until you hear a
click. Then test your top again, it should work and may
require further adjustment using this adjustment
screw.<br> <br>This is a difficult procedure to explain, but
it is fairly easy to do yourself. The micro-switch
will not get power if you are unable to lock the lid
and engage the lid motor simultaneously. My dealer
could not even do it. So it will take some playing
around with until you get the feel for it. Once all the
motors are engaged and there is power to the micro
switches you just have to turn the lid micro switch to the
position the tells the system the lid is down and locked.
Then the top should operate normally. <br><br>Greg
