Well the motor does not respond to the switch at all, so I guess the next step is to remove the switch and see if I can manipulate the motor by reversing wires etc

Regarding those grommets - saturate them well with WD40 or the like. Let 'em soak for a day and keep them saturated .Gently pry up on the motor with a large screwdriver while using a small screwdriver to feed the "fat" end of the grommet thru the hole. Do one grommet at a time. Take your time and you maybe able to save them. If anyone has replacements, it will be Hydro-electric. Many different makes use the same mounts.Chrysler used them all the way up thru the 1980s LeBarons.

Hello All.
Today I started to find out why my top doesn't go up or down under its own power. Removed the rear seat and lo and behold the motors unplugged. easy fix right?? not so fast, plugged it in and it runs constant. ignition off, switch off, top doesn't move, motor just runs. Any ideas??
Also looked into removing the motor so I can get a better look at it, looks like its held in place by 4 grommets which after 53 years will be destroyed in order to remove, are replacements available?? my service manual is useless on this area
any help is appreciated
Steven
