Here are some possible reasons and solutions.

  • The red light switch on the dashboard must stay lit when you try to raise/lower the top. If the light blinks, make sure that the car is stopped with the key on, so that the dashboard light comes on.
  • There's also an electrical-contact switch that can affect the operation. A dealership or an auto-repair shop can check this.
  • If oil is seeping down the windshield pillar inside the car or from the fluid reservoir in the trunk, you'll probably need to replace the two hydraulic valves that control the locking mechanisms on the two front latches.

If none of these is helpful, you can also manually raise and lower the top by using the "top tool" that came with the car's tool kit.

In my opinion, I do not think so. A convertible top that is open may subject him to injury from a passing motorist throwing a bottle out, or even being on the receiving off a really bad sunburn, and end up in the hospital with 2nd degree burns.
