Default Sensor for the convertible top

When top is up and secured, a note and buzzer goes off on the DIC that the top is not secured. Has any one else had this problem?
Thanks

Are you sure you are holding the top button long enough. You need to hold it until you hear a long beep. Then the Dec should say Top Secure.

Put the top down and then back up. Should work right.

Give that a try, and I think you will be happy, happy, happy.
