describe exactly how it happens when it gets stuck.

i had a similar issue to this. what would happen is this:

1) open the top (all is well)

2) try to close the top, but it would seem like the motor was trying to close it more instead of open it

3) stuck.

the culprit? there is a microswitch behind the driver's door that tells the convertible top motor to switch directions after the clamshell cycles. if it goes bad, the motor won't switch directions & the clamshell will get stuck.
