Default 7's top is open and not closing ( vert question )

okay well i opened the top on my 1990 rx7 vert and it decided to stop working after that. so the top is stuck in the open/down position. how do i test to see if it is the switch or the motor or maybe something else? i know nothing about vert tops so please hook me up with some knowledge.
i have a s4 shop manual but not a s5 and i think the switch locations are different as the "check terminals" are too.
please help guys
thanks in advance
jack

You could check the switch with a volt meter.

Dam its been a while since I drove a vert..

Is it stuck all the way down or in the half stage,where you could take the targa off?

I know there was something that had to be done for it to work properly..
Key on,E brake on?
FC3STurbo should be able to answer this more.
