90 500SL Need help with hardtop install problem

[warren128]

Guys, after enjoying my car with top off for a few weeks, I decided to reinstall the hardtop. My problem is the top switch light does not go out. I double and triple checked all the latches, and also tried manually locking all four corners, but still the light stays on.

Any suggestions on what to try next?

I know that the latches on top of the windshield are weak because I have to manually lock them when I put the softtop up.

When I try to latch the hardtop using the switch, the rear latches are fine, then the front latches balk. At that point, I use my top tool to manually lock the front latches. All 4 locks seem to be in place, but the light remains on.

TIA,

Warren
