With some careful help from a friend, we were able to slowly engage the panel (broken) and get the top up within minutes of the flood rains. Off to the dealer tomorrow. I went from never meeting my dealer 1.5 months ago, to being there every week now it seems. some scheduled maintenance, unfortunately others back to back warranty work.

Will update on the dealer fix and experience once completed.

In and out of the dealer this morning and FIXED in one hour. I was surprised and pleased. I thought they would have to order parts. Unfortunately this is common enough that they do keep these parts in stock.
