Default 2005 Corvette Power Top Issue

My 05 Corvette Power Top will go up 1/2 of the way, then stop. The cover "WILL NOT" unlatch to let the top continue to go down. After a while, the top will finally release the pressure & come back down.
Can anyone give me a suggestion as to what might be wrong?

PS This happened once before , but started working again after a few attempts.
Thanks, Steverino

I see you've asked your question in the C5 & C6 sectins & it looks like you've gotten some answers - hopefully they've been helpful. I find it helpful to do a search here in the appropriate forum section when I have a question. Many times it's been asked before so the answer is there already. It's a great resource!.
