Re: problems with convertable top

Well, there's a variety of things that could go wrong... The switch could fail, there could be a break in the wiring, or the pump could be bad...

I'd get a standard multitester and check if you are getting 12v at the pump when you have someone press the switch for the top... The pump is in the trunk on the driver's side under some carpet. If you are getting voltage, then it is likely the pump that has gone bad.

good luck,
Steve

Edit: Check your fuses before assuming it's the pump...
