I am troubleshooting why the power top motor will not work...
I bought two new relays, and they both click so I think I am getting power to the relays.
I checked the power wires Yellow/Red coming from the relays however, and the test light does not come on.
I then created a circuit with a 18v drill battery through the Yellow/Red wires coming from the convertible motor, the light came on. Does this mean the motor is good, or is there a better method for checking the motor.
Lastly, if I can figure out why the motor is not working, how do I install a new power motor? Especially since there are hydraulic fittings on the motor. Do you have to bleed the hydraulic fluid?
I am trying to get a new top installed, but without the motor, that can't happen.
I should have bought a notch...
