Chrysler Repair: 87 Labaron Convertible top wont operate, continuity tester, stearing wheel


Question
I have an 87 Labaron convertable and the top wont go down.  I jumped the circut to the switch in the console and it works.  The problem is I can not find the fuse for that switch.  I have checked every fuse in the box that is under the left side of the stearing wheel and all the fuses are good.  I also checked to see if there is power to the switch and there is not.  Apreciate any help I can get thanks   -Steve-  

Answer
Hi Steve,
The power to the switch comes from fuse #2 so check it with a continuity tester, or try substituting another fuse for it and see if that might just be a cracked fuse which looks good but actually isn't conducting. Check for continuity from the cold side of the fuse socket (one side will have 12V on it when you have the ignition switch in "on" position, i.e. hot) if it still won't work with a known good fuse. There might be a break in the white wire between the cold side and the switch,
The power for the relay/motor itself is via the circuit breaker in cavity #3, but that is OK based on your testing.
