Convertible top not going down
Hi Guys I have a 2004 C-70 and its been cold all winter. Today was warmer and I tried to put the top down with the p brake on and the car stopped and the top would not go down but the little orange light would blink. When I turned the car on the top worked fine and the light did not blink but when I started the car the top stopped working. Even if I stopped mid way and turned on the car. If I killed the engine and left the key in the on position it worked again. Anyone have any ideas?

Ha!!!!
I found the problem hopefully this will help others. For some reason the parking brake light want coming on when I applied the P brake, it would come on intermittently. When the car ignition was on with the motor off all the lights were on so the top worked. I just took out the P brake handle cover and played with the switch and now it works fine. Almost went to the dealer.. that would have been a waste of $125 at the least.
