First thing first, use the Porsche tester to check for faults...troubleshoot and correct as necessary...If you have faults let me know and I can look them up. Next I recommend performing the Convertible Top Calibration procedure with the Porsche Scan Tool. This will give you a heads up, if any sensors are not reading properly, faults will be stored in the computer.

Hi Casey,
Thanks much for the reply. I do have a good independent Porsche mechanic in town. I'll have him plug into his Porsche computer and see if he can give me a few codes. Think I can get that done this Thu. or Fri. I do have the brake light lit on the dash when I pull my handbrake. And do run the car to give it that "extra" power it may need. I'll keep you' all posted. A BIG thanks... again. ;o)
