If the E-brake light is not coming on the convertible top motor will not get power.

Sometimes pulling on the handbrake up and down, with varying degrees of force and speed, will revive the microswitch and get the light back on.

If that doesn't work, you can try blowing some compressed air at the microswitch, which is located below the base of where the e-brake meets the console.

Otherwise, unless you can get access through the side of the console, you will have to remove to clean or repair/replace the microswitch.

Regards, Maurice.
