convertible top
poobha replied to poobha's topic in 986 Boxster Convertible Top Issues and Solutions
Hi guys, I wish I was near California, we are having a brutal winter here in Ontario, Canada. I have followed the instructions Mark gave to a the t. Having said that when I timed the transmissions I have the top fully raised resting on the windshield frame at the front. When I connect everything back up the rear clamshell lid is up about 8-10". when I hit the raise top on the switch to close the clamshell it then that it torques down and I have to manually have to release it by taking the thrust rods off by reaching through the roll bar. Do I have the service position right on the top? The reason I thought this might be a relay is that my dash light for the top stays on even when it's in the closed position. I thank you guys for helping out. This little job has frustrated the heck out of me. -
I am having a problem with my convertible top. I have timed the transmission and the top will cycle down. When you go to raise the top it sounds as if it torques itself down rather than go up. I have to release the thrust rod to the lid to open. It torques itself down so far, moaning, that it falls off the transmission gears. Any thoughts?? Could it be the relay switch at the motor??? Frustrated :( in Canada.
