help, convertible top wont move?

please help. i just bought a 84 eldo convertible.the top does not work.i checked the switch for power and it has it. i jumped the motor and the top worked. i saw 2 disconnected relays in the glove box loose,so im assuming maybe previous mecanic took them out? does anyone know where the power top relays would be located? and is there another common problem? thanks. bob

The relays you are referring to go in the trunk and they are supposed to put the back windows down automatically when the top goes down!!!I believe you can either replace the relays or I have seen them jumped out and you put the back windows down first before putting the top down , that is a nice car I had an 1985 convert also had a 1981 convert , I liked the 85 better!! 

I think hood means roof. Do you have a factory convert or a conversion. Should say on drivers door jamb.

Alot of people think the 1984 and 1985 eldorado convertibles are factory , the fact is they all are conversions from a.s.c factory engineered and designed but none the less sent out . I had a 1981 convertible eldorado done by hess and eisenhart , I prefer the 84/85 asc''s much better!!1976 eldorado convertible''s are the LAST factory convertible''s of that era. 

I have the same problem in my 1971 eldorado. I just got it last week, today i lowered the top with no problem, but now i can''t bring it up. When pushing the convertible top switch to "down" it seems to react, but when pushing to "up" nothing happens.
 
How do i check the switch and the relay? where is the relay in this model?
 
Thanks, Dror.
