Reading thru it and putting the top up and down manually, I think you can figure out what is going on in a reasonable amount of time. THe first thing I'd do is get into the wheel well where the pump is and look at the Top Control Module - water leaks can cause things to get WET back there.
Thanks pizza guy, I have the trunk all clear. The top module is out and all connections look good. I read in this blog that the rod sensors are Hall effect. That would mean only a pulse would output when reaching top or bottom of travel. What do you think?
