Not sure if anyone mentioned this, but the top only works if the hand brake is on.

And the park brake light on the dash must be lit. There's a switch in the console that controls this and failure of this switch seems to be one of the most common reasons for tops not working.

I have to pull out my oddments tray and jiggle the switch to get it to work occasionally. I have a new switch, just haven't gotten around to installing it yet.
