In this video I demonstrate how I refurbished my convertible top pump and the steps I took to inspect and freshen up the other half the electric motor. The pump rebuild was easy. The electric motor inspection and cleaning was decent but just requires a little of time and patience. I still feel this can be completed by most do it yourselfers.

Thank you so much posting a detail video Dan. This was very helpful, in paticular the segment on the motor disassembly. I have a 66 Impala, and as you mentioned, many pumps are the same and mind is identical to yours. My Fisher manual covered the pump disassembly, but not the motor. I also talked with Convertible Service diectly and will be getting my seals from them and new cylinders and hoses. Thanks again Dan. Brian

Great how to Dan. The rubber mounting feet and the reservoir plug all have holes in them. a suitable rod a little smaller in diameter can be inserted in the holes to aid installation and removal. a slight push on the rod stretches the feet or the fill plug to easily insert the rubber parts. Same principle as a thermos jug.

Great job. I tried this I think I broke it, I wish I had your patience ,my top goes up but not down , do you think it's the pump or switch ? In your opinion, I'm confused because they both half work smh , do you happen to know what the wires are exactly on it ? And what for , and do it run directly to the switch or switch , fuse box or even maybe under the hood , I guess I'm bad at electrical

It should be easy to figure out. The pump makes noise so is the pump making noise when its trying to go down? Second you could disconnect the pumps power cable then run a hot wire to one of the pumps two leads. Each lead runs the pump in a different direction but never both at the same time. You should be able to run a 12 volt lead and test both the green and red connections to see if the pump turns over in each direction. If it does then maybe it's just a bad connection recheck all of the connections both to the pump and the switch, and I believe there is a relay too.

Hi good job on the rebuild. I'm wondering where do you get your parts from for the rebuild? I need seals and brushes. Thanks

I'm looking for a rebuild kit for the convertible top pump on a 1969 cadillac deville. Where did you get your kit from? Tried ebay but nothing. Thanks.

I bought the pump rebuild kit from "Convertible Service Top Parts" on eBay. I did not see your cars kit listed. However I would contact the seller I would imagine if he didn’t have the parts he would know who does. Good Luck!

@@f119045 sorry. I didn’t type it correct. You helped me. And I didn’t have the same pump. I have a 95 firehawk convertible. The pump was hung up on a piece of brass. I watched your video, decided to take it apart and knew what parts were what cause of your video. So thank you sir
