Trying to lower top. Course, will need to raise it too (in due time)......

Car is running (in park). Do I need to set the parking brake?

Divider in trunk (switch - closed) in proper position.

Unlatch top, windows go down.

I can hear trunk lock and confirm it is locked as well.

Pass side bow switch (switch condition - open), if I close (make) the switch, system beeps. Plus no further top action yet. Actually the top doesn't move with either switch condition.

Switch rapidly blinks.

What should I try next?

I've released the rear lock stud (6mm wrench - manual operation) but was unable to pull up with "light" force.
