Um, you'd be surprised, have you read some of these posts?


Check some fuses. Does anything happen at all when you hit the button. Do the windows go down?

There is a switch that the hardtop hits when it is installed. It shuts off power to the convertible top so it can't be raised while the hardtop is on.

Maybe that switch is stuck. It's located on the bracket behind the driver's seat, the one the hardtop latch fits into.
