Anyone has a circuit digram for the convertible top (Cobra -98)

No electrical contact when "raise" but works when "lower"

I don't have a diagram, but using the expirience that i have from working in avionics on airplanes, the first thing that i would do is make sure the emergency break is set

. But after that, i'd pop out that switch, and look to make sure the connections are not corroded or loose. Then, i'd get myself a multi-meter and check for voltage on the wires. There's probably only 3 wires under there. 1 ground, and 2 power wires. (i'm guessing here) Ground one lead on the meter, and touch the other to the connector on the switch. Then, press the switch in the desired direction. Check for power. If you have power, then it's the switch. If you don't have power.... I'd have to think and come up with some other theory.

Problem is now fixed. It was a loose wire connection into one of the relay connector pins. Probably bad manufactured and now finally broke after a couple of years vibrations
