HIBrown Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 I only have this '91 Tc for a couple of months. I washed the car with the hard top in place and all went well (no leaks). Now I have taken that off and have been using it without a top. Today, I am sure that I followed the directions and put up the soft top. I heard all the clicks and pushed down in the rear, but I still see about a 1/2 inch gap under the back of the soft top. Am I missing something. (The top appears to be in pristine condition) I would be most appreciative of any suggestions/help. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks.Two questions come instantly to mind.Did you push the button to pull the back of the top down tight before you latched the front?If you did and it didn't pull the back of the top down tight, have you tried running the top up and down AKA the latch unlatch switch a couple of times? these things do get out of synch, there is a reset procedure in the manual, but running the top through complete cycles while holding the switch can get the job done when lack of use has left you with dirty contacts.
