When putting the car away yesterday, the pulldown cycled down and up continuously with the J-hook engaged. I disengaged the latch, cycled the pulldown down, left J-hook unhooked, covered the car, and cursed the top under my breath.

Today I reviewed the shop manual and old threads here about adjusting the pulldown motor to stop the cycling. Repair steps:

- Enter the garage armed with a beer and a flashlight.
- Cycle the pulldown and limit switches (aka poke around) until the pulldown switch won't function.
- Lower the top until the J-hook contacts the latch, allowing the motor to cycle.
- When the latch reaches the top, lift the top and slam it down.
- Pulldown motor pulls the top down and stops correctly. Problem solved.
- Shrug shoulders and drink beer.

I'm pretty sure this "repair" will hold at least until I put the top down again.
