Low fluid would be my "go to" as the other two are not really all that likely. A car that sat that long can sure have problems, but given that the pump is starting, I'd want to check the fluid level first.
I wrote all of this to explain how the system works, but if the pump is starting, everything I talk about here is fine:
Convertible Top Sensors - CrossfireForum - The Chrysler Crossfire and SRT6 Resource
So how do I check the fluid from what i have seen in the posts you need to get the top to move to get at the fluid reservoir. if I am wrong sorry, can i get to it without moving the roof. I do not have the special tool, we bought it used.
thanks
