I then tried to move the top manually, heard a very loud "CLICK", and then was able to use the electric motors to SLOWLY close the top completely.

It now will not open. Pressing the button only causes the little electric motors to spin over and and die from exhaustion.

My sensors are all fine.

Will a new GAHH top replace the motors too?
GAHH top replaces only fabric top and materials. http://www.gahh.com/
No motors, you will have to source the top motor unit independently. First look up how to manual crank it open, see whats jamming it or could be the motor is gone. Remove, bench test it, if no good, check Ebay for used parts or order a new unit.

best
