The boot lid lifts up but the convertible top does not. Parking brake on, engine cover closed, checked fuses with no result. Anyone know the cause?

Even a search here on Rennlist will give you many options to explore. Microswitches, latch mechanisms, low fluid, busted parts...the list is endless. So glad I have a coupe.

Ditto above, but I would check the fluid level first, since t's easy.
