In the trunk on the back passenger side behind a little carpeted wall, you will find the convertible top hydrolic pump.

Check to make sure the fluid level is high enough (10W motor oil is the proper fluid). On the end of the tank you will see two little lines.. make sure the fluid level is in between those lines.

Also, check to make sure the bypass valve is fully closed. The bypass valve is a little lever on the top of the pump. I think the closed position is toward the front of the car and open is toward the driver side. Either way.. play with it. Open will allow you to operate the top manually. Closed will make it very hard to move.

Hopefully it's as simple as one of the issues above. If not.. check back in and we'll try something else.
