Hi All,

I have been in the process of changing the convertible top on my 98 due to the typical rear window crack. I started two weekends ago and got through taking the top off.

However, when I went to the car this past weekend to continue and pushed the switch on the dash to lower the frame, nothing happened.

The microswitch that the latch above the windshield attaches to seems to be fine as the windows roll down when the latch is released. And the parking brake light is on.

Does anyone have any ideas of what could have happened? Seems odd that it was working perfectly one weekend and suddenly not the next.

Thanks!
