Well this is discouraging. I don't have a 19mm socket, and try as I might I cannot find the ball joint.
What's even more discouraging is that the whole reason I'm trying to operate the top is to get to the engine, so that I can replace the MAF, so that I can smog the car, so I can DRIVE the car.
So because Porsche decided that the only way to access the engine is for a system made of multiple fuses, multiple microswitches that are prone to failure, a complex relay prone to failure, and a complex electric motor drive system with various linkages prone to failure, all to be working 100%, my car is effectively undrivable. There isn't a backup plan. Why did anyone think that was a good idea? Even AUDI convertible tops have mechanical top operation backups. Why Porsche? So do I spend $200 to get a relay on the off chance that it might be the problem? Pay $200 just to access the engine. Unbelievable.
