HI Chris, so i tried to open up the damshell but fail. at first i was trying to open the engine cover but finding out that wasn't the part i need to open "as you can see i really don't know much". I am not sure which is the black canister and really not sure what to pop/ pry off! i have attach a picture. Would that be the canister, with the red dot that i am pointing in the picture, that you are talking about. Thanks for any help!

Thanks Chris for your help! 1) Yes i am sure it's the motor cuz it is running in the background even when the car is shut off! 2) dash brake light comes on when pull the handbrake 3) windows does drop when it is unlatch the black handle for the top 4) oh NO... "usually ends in disastrous & expensive results =( right now is almost 12pm here, i will check it out first thing in the morning following your instruction getting the clamshell to open. I have never done it myself. I hope it works. I will update you guyz with info.. again! I feel really good that you guyz can help me.. thanks so much! Eric

Good day, My top will not work any more (currently in top position) however it isn't the sensors problem since the motor is running in the background when i click on the button. I have read up the forum and i think the first thing i need to do is open up the services cover to look inside. Sorry i am new to this, but if i cannot get my top to lower to begin with, how can i access the service part? Any advices for my problem? Any help would be great! Thanks all!

Top Stopped Fuctioning
Boxster98newbie replied to SC986's topic in 986 Boxster Convertible Top Issues and Solutions
Hi Chris, this is my very first post. You seems to be an expert in this and I hope you can help me. I cannot lower my top this morning. At first I tried to lower it and the motor starts working. But seems like it was moving unevenly and after a few pop sound, i raise it back up. Since then, I can't move the top back down no more but i can heard the motor sound is running. I read up the link about convertible issue. My first question would be how can i even access to the services part without able to lower the top part to begin with. Thanks for the help!
