Points 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 are a big finger pointing to the problem here - and it is not a switch on the wing. The Power Top Control module gets permission to move the top from the Body Control Module (BCM) and the Central Locking Pump/Security System Module (CLP/SSM). These modules get data from the Brake Controller in order to make the decision if the top should be moved. Additionally, the BCM operates the wing motor based on data from the Brake Controller as well. The fact that the top AND wing are not happy are a red flag that has nothing to do with any switch on the wing OR top.

Clearly, you have a problem in the Brake Controller. In order to know which way to go next, we must first know:

A) If this is a manual or automatic?
B) If it is an automatic, do you have trouble getting out of Park?
c) Does the speedometer work normally or is it dead or acting "funny"?


The answers to these three questions will tell us what direction to go from here. The possibles are: Bad BCM, Bad RCM, Bad Brake Controller, CAN BUS failure, or blown fuse.
The suspect fuses are all in the underhood fuse box on the driver's side. These fuses include those for ABS/Traction Control or for the BCM.
Thank you for the response !
1. It’s a Manual
3. Speed, RPM, fuel, temp gauges are working.

I still need to find a replacement for the up/down switch at the wing as the metal and blue white micro button fell off while manually pressing
it. If I can find a replacement I’ve read it can be glued in place would probably use 5200 adhesive for that.

but please continue on what this problem could be very appreciative thank you!
