the only thing to open a functional top is to ensure the cover in the trunk is closed and the car isnt moving. push the red button to the rear. if it blinks then something is amiss , a sensor bad or cover open. if the light is red and still wont open then you have other issues.
when the button is depressed the windows drop first then the trunk opens and the roof retracts into the trunk then trunk closes
