lookup the 5$ bike cable fix on the forum or get a new regulator for around 150$. Dont buy used, it's a bit of a pain to replace it if it breaks again.
When I use the handles it does not drop down at all, just when I put the top down, do you think regulator is still a problem?

I did find a regulator for $54,
