Top Not Operating

Bought a 2003 SL500 with top not operating. Put 3k miles since purchased in February 2023. Amazing car except for the roof.
Spring is here in SoCal so it is time to put the top down! The flaps seem right, but when you pull back on the switch the windows stat to open, then stop and thats it! Any ideas?

If you pm me I'll send you the diagnostic aid document on the vario roof. For some obscure reason PDF's may not be shared here.
In the screenprint: your scenario below left.




(You do know you're supposed to hold that switch?).
