Vert Top Sticks

Having a problem raising my top. It seems to stick about half way when raising it. I have to manually raise or give it a nudge.

Anyone had this problem?

had a similar problem with our 05. It turned out to be the pressure release screw backed out, allowing enough pressure to get started, but not to finish lifting the top. The pump is under the waterfall hatch, pass side behind the carpet. The screw is on the side of the pump/reservoir.

Do you hear the motor whining when it stops? I'd take it to the dealer and get them to fix it. Under warranty still?

Then it's probably a sensor. Look on the right for the sensors and see if one got knocked out of place.

So, to be clear, the pump makes noise pushing the top up and then it becomes completely quiet when the top sticks? And then it starts making noise again when you give it a nudge?
