My 1996 Ford Mustang GT convertible top doesn't work. There is no sound when I press the switch. Hopefully a fuse or something simple. I can not find anything in my Chilton Repair manual about the convertible top electrical system. How would I trouble shoot it? Or where can I find a guide on how to troubleshoot it?
The parking brake must be engaged before the top will work. Hope this helps.

What exactly is it doing or not doing for that matter. Check vacuum lines going to the unit and see if you have any broken hoses. I'll try to get a schematic to you. It's best if you give me your email address so I can send it to you.

if your vehicle does have a cut off switch it would be located in the trunk behind the trunk lining on either rear wheel fender well. also not only is there a relay for the fuel pump but also a fuse as well. make sure the 10 amp fuse(red) is still good. it should be in either the power distribution box under the hood or the fuse block under the dash on the drivers side..also there might be a junction box underneath the vehicle where there is a connection loose. if all else fails check the main wire harness leading from distribution box .

it sounds like either the torque converter solenoid is stuck or the torque converter itself is bad

The turn signal switch and wiper switch are one unit called a Combo switch. The good news is it is easily changed. After opening the column covers it is held to the side of the column with two torque head screws. You don't have to remove the steering wheel.
Testimonial: "Thanks! I'll try to find the part # for that combo switch and try it before storing the car for winter :("

I figured it out. In case anyone is interested. By removing the center
console (actually just removing console glove box), I was able to get
to the convertible top switch, which turned out was cracked and no
longer made contact. Turns out I need a new switch.
