QUOTE (mkernz22 @ Dec 4, 2012 - 3:02 PM)  Probably the motors have gone bad. Can you be more specific. Can u hear the motors ect. There is a switch in the trunk that will cut power to the motors. It is behind a little panel by the light. If something bumps it it can switch by itself. Make sure it is on position. |

Previous owners said it was something about the top bars?

I installed two satellite receivers* in my '97 Celica convertible, and both times accidentally bumped the manual switch in the trunk. I didn't feel it either time, and it's easy to check. There's a little hatch in the trunk on the side that faces the back seat, and the switch is in there. Worth a try....
