alaxfire,
Thanks for the information! I went out last evening to give that a try and I couldn't get the top to open and fold. I could pop the rear latch from the trunk, and of course the front latch from the windshield, but that is about as far as I could go. There was strong resistance trying to fold from either the front or the back. I was able to lift the back about 2". I released the cover latch with the wrench, but that led nowhere. I'm assuming there is hydraulic resistance somewhere, or an old pop rivet stem is jamming things up. The hydraulic system is not functioning. The switch just blinks at me. I've seen some threads dealing with this issue, but I needed to get the top on without the glass falling out. It's done now, so on to the opening issue.
Any hints or suggestions?
Does the convertible top control go through the door lock electronics? Mine got wet.
