Window compresses but Tonneau cover does not open. Released it with the provided tool, top goes into cavity, Tonneau goes down and locks. Reversing the process, Tonneau opens, top exits cavity and Tonneau does not go down (???).

That is the 3rd to last step. Tonneau should lock, then back window then lock the front front of the top to top of windshield.

Hydraulic fluid is good; no faults listed. Caveat - it's winter in Chicago; temps are below 40 - an issue or no?

With the cover up look for leaks in the cylinders that open/close and lock/unlock cover.

would it be safe to say if you feel a bit of what maybe hydraulic fluid in the area where you pull the top down to latch it, you have a leak in the system some where ?

No leaks found. Top is up. Had to push the tonneau cover past verticle after top was out of the holding area. Continued the process, tonneau locked, window locked but found the headrests started to rise. Locked the top at the front (both latches). Raised/lowered headrests. No errors. Didn't try putting the top down again - will investigate more this week. Had disconnected the battery (some had recommended this considering it may reset the 'system'). No change.
