Check wiring where door flexes. copper wires repeated bending can break.
Overload breaker points stuck - is inside motor.
Burned smell - replace motor.
Bad door switch - my rear window would freeze shut. trying top open would damage switch. Mine was driver door master switch.
you have air moving over the roof at hiway speeds..it flexes the fabric on the top..you may need to lower a back window slightly to allow the release of that pressure on your ears.. or try the vent settings on the dash..but as long as the roof flexes, you will get that buffeting of air..its a common thing with convertibles..may need earplugs..
It sounds like what you need are dealer parts, items only available from GM rather than an auto parts store. You should be able to pick the parts out of a diagram in their parts dept.
The convertible top on my 1998 boxster would not work either, nor would the windows go down. If you have checked the fuse and it is fine, then it may be what I had experienced which is the switch located in the center console directly under the hand brake. There is a white plastic switch with a plunger on it that is engaged by the handbrake being raised. When the handbrake is engaged it activates the switch which then allows the convertible top to be activated. It's a $5.00 part, (I know, I couldn't believe it either) from the porsche dealer, and a very easy to do yourself job, it took me 10 minutes from start to finish. It would be worth spending the $5 and replacing it anyway, at least you could rule it out if it stll does not work you only spent $5 rather thank $140 an hour labor rate at dealer. Pop the side plastic panel under the hand brake on the drivers side and you will see the white plastic switch. Good luck.
