Help-Top Up/Down Quits Working

[83RivConv]

Last time I tried to put my top down the elec motor stopped running & no results from pressing switch--either for down or up? After setting an undetermined time it worked again. Is there a relay or something in that circuit that may be going bad--I doubt it is just a bad switch on dash!? I later got the top up with one continuous swoop--was afraid to let-up on sw (as I did when putting it down--to position top folds & no restart). Help--I'm afraid to put my top down again. Now I just have a "hardtop" with lotsa wind noise & some rattles... <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" />

It is probably the top motor or relays or the switch. I have the manual for the 82 -85 tops, so if you email me your address I can email you a copy of the pages on how to repair.

You can also find the instructions of how to operate the top MANUALLY, yes raise and lower by hand in the Riviera owners manual.
