i have a 1997 sl500 the top was working fine and i had to change the alternator ,i drove the car for a couple days with the top down and no problems.i went to put the top up and it went up half way and quit, now the top and power windows dont work at all,i checked the fuses in the trunk and they are all good but the windows and top does not operate.
the top up and down switch is on solid red and flashes when i try to use .

thanks for any help

You probably need to resync your windows in order for the top to begine working again. Disconnecting the battery will cause this. Simply push the buttons in the up position with the windows completly up and count to 5. Your windows should auto-down after that and should drop a qtr inch when opening the door. If this doesn't work, disconnecct the neg side of the battery and reconnect. Resync the windows and try again. Make sure you have your radio code. Good luck!
