f) Convertible top will not operate - Tech who did clutch believes "it's not a memory issue but rather a sensor issue (cannot wait to hear how much THAT will be to fix.

The battery disconnect can screw up your convertible operation, as can an older weak battery. A new CRM (convertible roof module) will set you back ~$800 for the part.
A straightforward bit of DIY labor as shown here....

Aston repair time guidance for the job is 1 hour, but the dealer price for CRM part will likely be well north of the $800 listed on redpants site.

There may be other sensors associated with specific roof functions like latching properly, but I’m not familiar with these.
