The top on my 2013 Boxster S with 22,000 miles has stopped functioning, it will not go back up (good thing it's summer!). The windows will still go up and down when I hit the switch but the top does not move.

Thoughts?

 

Do you hear any mechanical noise from the top mechanism? If not suspect something electrical like a fuse or position sensor. Try and manual raise the top and see if it will continue to close or open. Numerous position micro-switches. There are several YouTubes on tops. Not sure how good PIWIS or Durametric are in diagnosing top issues, but finding an Indy with a PIWIS might be the best unless something obvious is found.

 

The only noise I hear is a "clicking" sound when I pull the button, doesn't sound like the motor is engaging. Not a big deal to have it down now as we have great weather so I'll probably just end up finding an indy with a PIWIS or Durametric to get it sorted out.

 

I'd still try and manual raise the top to see it will continue to close or open. That would indicate a position sensor.
