Charles, what year top did you put on, 2000 - 2004 tops will not work with a 97-99 car with out changing the top transmissions as well, there is a part on 97-99 frames that was eliminated on 2000-04 frames that trips the B pillar micro switch. I had a similar problem when I installed a 2003 top on my 1999, I ended up changing out my 1999 top transmissions with ones from a 2000 along with the top relay. In 2000 the micro switch is incorporated in the drivers side transmission eliminating the B pillar switch. There is a good write up on the rewiring process if this is the case.
I can’t find it , search Maurice on this forum, he is wizard with this
