    Convertible Top Problem

    Can anyone give me some ideas? I was putting my top up tonight and got it up all the way, but it wasnt lining up just right cause the hooks fell a little short when trying to clamp them down (this is normal.... after the top is down for an extended period of time, it takes a little extra effort to get it lined up).

    Anyway, I lined it back up and most of the time I need to use the motor switch to help get the top in the holes and keep it there while I get a clamp locked down, then the other side is pretty easy.

    So I proceed to use the electric motor switch to help with the top, and NOTHING but a clicking noise. I tried to put the top down and NOTHING but a click.

    Luckily my top was nearly all the way up and it is locked into place, but now I can't put my top down and it just "click" when I push the button.

    Is the convertible top motor shot, or is just a relay?

    I'd like to try to get this fixed for Carlisle (or sooner) cause I can't put my top down at all.

    PLEASE HELP!!!
