Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.
7 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

I went to put my top down today, and got nuthin'. No motor sound, no movement, just a sad face (that was me). Anybody have any experience or advice with this issue? It worked fine yesterday... guess I'm glad the top is up since winter is coming......
Maybe a fuse?
did parking brake light come on when you pulled the brake handle up? just recently mine didn't light for 4-5 tries, then light and top works....
Look at the below link, and it should help you out. Boxster Projects | Parking Brake Sensor Switch
Thanks! I'll look into that.
I didn't notice, but will check. Thanks!
Sounds to me like a micro switch issue to me. I had the same issue and bypassed the problem by installing a Comfort Top module.
