Question on Boxster Convertible Top Repair

I have a 2005 Base Boxster. Recently I put the convertible top down and heard an odd clicking sound behind my left shoulder while sitting in drivers seatabout 5 times, equally spaced in timeas the top went down. I later tried closing the top but got a "convertible top not in limit position" error come up. When I try to raise the roof up I hear the motor running but nothing is moving. What is the problem here? How do I fix it?

Are you able to help the top up? If the top moves freely without pressing the close button then the cables or transmissions are no longer doing their job. If you have to hit the button to get the top to move something could be binding.
