Default Power Convertible Top Issues C6

This is an incredibly helpful forum. I have a couple of issues with my 2006 power convertible top. 1. I have to pull the emergency tonneau cover release for the latch to unlock and the cover so the top will go down. It tries to release but just cycles the latch trying to open. When putting the roof up it works just fine. 2. When the top goes down and the cover closes I have a small gap on each side of the cover when it closes. It appears that the top is not going down into the trunk quite far enough. Is there an adjustment for this? 3. On the way back up I have to push on the passenger side upper left corner of the top , pushing it forward to get the process to complete. Are there sensors to replace to remedy this? I have the process down to a fine art as I love driving with the top down but I would really love to just be able to push the button. 😀. As you can imagine there was a lot of trial and error before I figured out how to get it to go up and down in a restaurant parking lot when these problems all appeared. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
