Boxster Top Cycle Reset ?

[stabino]

Can someone help me? I am a new porsche owner (1997 boxster) and I am having a top problem. the two plastic pieces on the arms that move the top broke the other day. I have the new pieces ($60 each) but now that my top has cycled once without going all the way down, it is showing that top is still open, when it is not open. The motor is not moving the lid so I cannot get inside to replace the plastic pieces. I take it that I need to reset the motor relay so that the lid will again open up so I can get inside to replace the plastic arms. How do I get the lid to open when it will not cycle? It doesn't seem as though I can get access to the reset switch without the getting the lid to open and I am unsure if I can reset it by pulling a fuse or whatever. I tried looking int he engine compartment and the trunk area. I cannot see how to get to the motor with the lid down? Any help will be very much appreciated. Thanks,

Tony

Is your top up or down or somewhere in between.
