If the motor is turning, there are probably a number of things that could cause the inconsistent operation; a bad gear in one transmission or the other, binding due to having the transmissions out of alignment are the things that come to mind immediately.

It seems odd to me that you can operate the top manually, there is no situation that mine will move by hand as long as the motor is connected to the transmission cables...

Be sure to check the push rods & the plastic caps on the end & make sure everything is in the place it is supposed to be, this doesn't sound like a push-rod problem, but that's one of the more common failures, I've been through 3...

Looks like your airbag light is burned out or disconnected.
