Or there are plastic components in the motor drive system.
Do a search on the issue I remember seeing some pictures of the motor drive system here on the forum.
Perhaps the pictures will give you some insight.
So I think the place to start is to get as familiar as possible with the drive system first.
Then you will have an idea of the weak points in the system and where to look.

Thank you. I've read through the years many posts on the matter... watched a few vids... in anticipation of, at some point, a top failure. I'll do more research on the drive system, thank you.
Even with the POP... I hear nothing 'electrical'... 'mechanical' anywhere through the system when pressing the top button (on the dash). Emergency brake light works fine.
For now the top is down. The humps, I believe, help hold down the clamshell... keeping it from rattling around. Sooner or later I'll be inspired to get back into the top.
Thanks!!
