Switch that kinda looks like a "top" It is red, when moved forward or back Center console, near transmission shift lever. In my owners manual page 67-69
There are several preconditions Parking brake, key in steering lock to position 2 depending on where the soft top is located you slide the switch back or forward ( it is a short tip not displacement of the switch )
The controller has lots of conditions like hydraulic oil, all the locks in the proper for the top system If the system is properly set it pops and snaps and windows are down, roll bar down and compartment open. Once the movement starts keep the switch activated.
If you have the hard top on the doors are open in addition to Park and parking brake engaged.
So what is the problem? no manual no action when you move the switch or your vehicle is "leaking"
send more details!
