TOP LOCK
As the top approaches the full up position, and the package tray seats in posi
tion, the top up limit switch rear is depressed, opening the circuit to the top up
relay. This stops the top motor and pump assembly. At the same time the top
comes in contact with the windshield header, the contacts of the top up limit
switch front are closed. The current now flows from the top control switch,
through the top up limit switch front, upper bock panel limit switch, and the top
lock relay coil to ground. The relay contacts close and the power circuit is
completed to the top lock motor. The motor is energized and the top is locked
into position. The lock motor remains energized until the upper back panel is
retracted.
