Default Soft Top Issue *Wont Opperate

Hey guys recently picked up a LBP AP2 and everything has been great until today. I removed an iSimple Gateway the previous owner installed and now my soft top or defroster wont work. I removed it since the iSimple was made for the oem radio and there was an aftermarket radio installed already so im not sure why it was still plugged up.

Checked fuses
Both windows can still go down via window switches
Both windows wont go down using the roof switch

Can anyone shed some light and help a new owner out? Thanks

Here's a video showing the hazards working, defroster image light working but nothing else operates

just pop the center console, unplug the switched and plugback in. Then try it. Happened to me where it stopped operating while i was top down. I panicked, pop the console up, unplug, plug back in, and boom. it works. maybe came lose?

Ive done that at least a dozen times, i know theres power going to the switch i just dont know why its not working. Its been working fine until today. I checked for loose wires also and didnt find any.

-take the center console off

-unplug the defroster and the soft top

-take the plug that you had plugged into the soft top and plug it into the defroster

-take the plug that you had plugged into the defroster and plug it into the soft top

-put console back together and enjoy your working soft top and defroster

Wow i didnt even think to do that, didnt run through my head that Honda would make the plugs switchable especially when they're that close together.

Everything works now though! Thanks guys
