Default Re: Top Trouble

Okay,

Here is how I resolved.
Using part of Pizzaguy's Video, I popped the top latch. Turned the key all the way on. Pressed and held the "Down" button. While still holding down, I switched the key off. I continued to hold the button for over 5 seconds.
I manually released the latch that secures the back of the top with a 5.5 mm Allen Wrench. Once released my wife and I lifted the back of the top up and held it there for a couple of seconds. We gently let the top back down.
I put the key back in and turned all the way on again and pressed the "UP" button. The top latched automatically.
I pressed the "Down" button and the top worked perfectly this time.
I cycled the top several times without any problems.
There was a statement in the owners manual about the Deck Lid becoming locked. It stated that releasing the Hydrallic pressure this would allow the top to operate again.
I will try that next time it happens instead of manually releasing the top.
