Question Power top...(FIXED!!!)

Hello.
Well, power top on my cabriolet is not working. I can open/close manually, but even if I hit the button on the center console, nothing happens. However, both windows roll down when I hit this switch, so the switch is ok.

I did search this site and internet, but couldn't find any tips on how to troubleshoot, or where to look, and etc....

So please help me out. Thanks!

There are several microswitches that drive the 2 motors under the rear window tray. I understand they're quite expensive to replace, so on one cab I've simply loosened the convertible top frame bolts through the access holes inside each rear seat panel and operate it manually instead.

Do you here the motor running? Is this a new to you car or did this just happen? If you can move the top without disconnecting anything, then something is broke. Both sides though, sounds unlikely.
