1997 986 convertible top help

Hello guys, hoping to get some help on my 1997 986.


This morning I went out to start my car and saw that it was hooking, not like the alarm just a constant honk. I unlocked it manually since my key does not work and it stoped for a little bit but then kept going. I then inserted the key to the ignition and it stoped honking but realized the numbers on the dash were faded and I assumed water got in somehow since it has been raining where I live. So I put the top down in hopes that I could let the car dry up (because it was humid inside) but as I was putting the top down, the convertible sounded a bit weak. I drove the car for about 15 min and when I went to put the top back up it tried to go up, again weak, but stoped and was just stuck about. I took it to a local convertible shop and the guy told me it was the convertible motor. Does anyone els know what it could be? I still think it just something Electricle but I'm not sure what, hoping I can find some help on here.

Thank you in advance.
