While depressing power top button to lower top, top stopped in middle of process. Now top is unlatched, roll bar is lowered, and windows are down (all performed via powered top operating button). None of these will work via other means. How can I rset the top functions? Is there a relay or large fuse that powers all three of these items? If so, where is it located? How can I correct this problem? Thanks for your help.

It sounds to me like you may have a hydraulic problem. You can check the hydraulic pump to make sure you have enough fluid in it. It is located under thh spare tire. If that doesn't fix it, try unhooking the battery for 24 hours to reset the main computer.

Good Luck,
