03 S Convrt top problem

03 convertible top
Hi all
The 03 convertible top still will not collapse low enough for the clamshell to close. I’ve taken it apart the boomerang to check lines and it’s good. Adjusted connections off boomerang but nothing helped. Closed looks good but warning light on. Down starts ok but doesn’t collapse enough to get clamshell closed. Pushing down on the top when down doesn’t feel like there’s more to give. I’ve tried several adjustments on the white topped and the black but nothing I’ve tried lowers the top down enough.

Have you tried disconnecting the cables from the motor to the boomerang, and then "raise" them a little and reconnecting? I'm no expert, but it sounds like the motor may not be aligned with the actual position of the roof. Just a guess.
