A convertible top will not operate either up or down. The relay(s) does not click when the switch is depressed. Technician A says that the switch could be defective. Technician B says that the electric pump motor for the power convertible top could be defective and not cause the relays to click when the switch is moved. Which technician is correct?

a. Technician A only
b. Technician B only
c. Both Technicians A and B
d. Neither Technician A nor B


a. Technician A only
Technician A is correct because if the relay does not click, there is a fault in the control circuit that operates the coil of the relay and a defective switch could be the cause. Technician B is not correct because the relays do not operate to send electrical power to the motor. While the motor(s) could be defective, the fault is in the control circuit because the relay(s) does not click when the switch is moved. Answers c and d are not correct because Technician A only is correct.
