Hi

After reading through different threads, decided to do bungee chord fix for sagging elastic straps

noticed that even after bungee chord, I will have pull back the bar 5 & 6, so decided to adjust the tension bar length

in the process, I have completely messed up the settings (wish I had taken pics before I started)

now, the resync and getting top closed works very well

but when I open the top, everything works upto the point of tonneau cover opening and top dropping in

After that, top does not move, I can see top motor working but the tension rod does not push the memchanism

wondering whether anyone has instructions on how to adjust the tension bar

thanks for your help
