Convertible Top Not Working

I have a 1967 Barracuda Convertible. It has a power top and the switch will not actuate the motor. I have done no testing to see if I have power to the switch or motor because I'm thinking this thing has to be fused somewhere.

You need to see if you have power to the switch first. It's not fused anywhere along the PT circuit other than the circuit breaker (behind the driver's kick panel)

I did stick my head up under the dash just long enough to find out there is a rather large wire that runs from the back of the ALT gauge to the switch without ever going through the fuse box. Wow!

That's the way it's wired!

I have a factory service manual for this car but it does not show any of the wiring detail for the convertible top. It's easy to troubleshoot but I wanted to go for a drive today with the top down. Anyone have a "quick fix"?

The FSM should have a section in Chaper 8 (Electrical) on the wiring. My 65, 69 and 71 FSM all show it. If you have power to the switch, keep checking on down the line. Might be the pump itself.
