    My convertible top is not working

    I have 92 vert and my convertible top is not working. In the trunk there is black box. I opened box and tap on the 4 coil one by one and top & lid motor had power. I know there are 5 micro-switch but don't know what to check and don't know what else to check.

      I have read this. Thats how I figure out there is power to both motor when I hit coil.
      If I get power to motor by tapping 4 coils does that mean all micro-switches are working? What else should I check?

        go manual.
        I don't even own this car anymore, but I'm too lazy to change the picture.

          I can fold my manual top faster then an auto top at a casual pace.....and I know nothing will break and force me to not use it.....Just saying.
