Convertable Motor Issues

Ok so my top doesn't work anymore. It sounds like the cable that goes to the front of the top snapped. I heard a pop. Andd right after that I heard fluid squirting out of the motor when I push the button and I noticed a puddle of fluid under my rear seats. I don't know much about top motors but can anyone help? Is that cable a pita to change? And is there a fluid linr I should look for that might of came off or loose?

Ahh thanks...I haven't even looked at it yet....I didn't even know there was a cyl. I thiught it was just a motor. But it does make sense. It sucks I have a styling bar and I read I'm going to have to remove that to take the rear panels off and access the cylinder. Thanks a lot steve that was a big help. It must have blew the cylinder or something it was so bad there was a puddle of fluid under my car and trail fe om where a backed out of my spot at work all the way out of the parkinglot. Fortunately its getting cold so I prob won't have to replace anything untill next spring. Lol again thay link was a huge help as I didn't know all that went on with the motor and such......I'm also going to need a new top in general because the previous owner stabed it or something. Its patched and doesn't leak.....yet. any idea on what a new top runs installed? I heard there a pita to DIY. And I should have it professionaly installed plus the frame is crap too so I hope it all comes in a package.
