Good afternoon, I am having a small issue with the convertible top on my 2007 Boxster.
I haven't opened the top in a long time, and when I tried this morning, it would open half-way and then stops, giving me a "convertible top not in limit position" message on the dashboard.
Going back and forth, I could finally fully open it, but the same issue appeared when I tried closing it.
Would it rather be the motor or the transmissions that I need to look into?
Thanks in advance for the help!

 

Replaced the convertible top motor and it seemed to do the trick.

 

***********UPDATE!*************

I had trouble with the top. would not go down.

Read all the helpful tips here and what I did is take the battery out​.
charge it for about 5 hours.
Put the battery back in.

Reset the window alignments by bringing the window all the way down and push the down button for about 5 seconds after the car window stopped​. same thing in the up position on both sides. Once I did that I could see that now my window on my driver side would go up and down when I opened the door just a few millimeters for the convertible top. It was not doing that before so that's why my top was not activating because that window sensor was not working correctly​.​ Now it is so the top is working good​.... just in time for the rain in Tampa Florida
