Convertible Power Top Blowing Fuses
Short answer: Blowing fuses while raising/lowering the top means the pump motor is drawing too much current — most often from low fluid / a leak or a failing pump motor. Check the fluid first: if a cylinder is leaking and the level is low, topping it off often cures it.
If the fluid is fine, pull the back seat to reach the pump and feel whether it’s overheating when it runs — an internal motor going bad will overheat and blow fuses (repro pumps run about $200). Also inspect the wiring to the pump for a short.
