Incorrect Cycle After Cable Repair

My '98 had the popular top cable problem, bent clamshell and broken red pushred. Thanks to all the info on this form, I have it back together and mostly running properly. I have two, possibly related, problems: At the end of the lowering cycle, the light does not go out and the clamshell starts going back up. At the end of the top raising cycle, the top does not seem to want to stop in the right place-sort of like it wants to keep going. Any idea of what I have done wrong in the timing? I did not see anything here on this particular issue.

TIA.

Although I don't know how this would be related to the work done on your car, I had similar results with a 98 when I forgot to reconnect the wires to the B-pillar microswitch.

Actually, this is a big DUH on my part. It was all put together fine, but I was a little nervous about letting the top up or down run all the way. No way could I have fixed my top without help from this forum. THANKS EVERYONE!
