325 ic power top information

Is there anyone that has good information on power tops?

I bought this car and would like to get the top working again and believe i need to start with motors and linkages.

well, there are no linkages, and when i hit the power button, the motors do not turn either.

thanks.

Drivr,
You can check the motor itself simply enough by removing it and testing it with a separate 12VDC supply or car battery.
If the motor tests good, then the problem could be any of the following:
1. Convertible Top Fuse(s)
2. Convertible Top Relay(s)
3. Convertible Top Limit Switch(es)
