FIGURE 1 - 1965 Lincoln Continental Convertible Top and DeckElectrical and Hydraulic Components

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

The convertible features automatic lowering of the top ossembly Into the luggage compartment. The deck lid completely conceals the top when it is in the

retracted position. The operation of the top is accomplished by electricallypowered mechanical and hydraulic linkage.

The top operation is divided into two cycles; the retract cycle in which thetop unlocks and lowers into the luggage compartment, and the erect cycle inwhich the top is raised from the stacked position and locks to the windshield

header.

The car should be stopped and all side windows lowered before the top Isoperated. The ignition switch must be in the ACC or ON position, preferablywith the engine running. The transmission selector lever must be in either the

N or P position; then, actuate the top control switch.

To retract (lower the top), push the top control switch down and hold it until

the deck lid has fully opened. Then, make sure that nothing is stored in theluggage compartment that could interfere with the top as it is lowered. Hold thetop control switch down again until the top retract cycle is completed.

Page 5: REPAIR & ADJUSTMENToctopup.org/img/car/lincoln/info/...Convertible-Top...To retract (lower the top), push the top control switch down and hold it until the deck lid has fully opened

To erect (raise the top), push the top control switch up to open the deck lid

and raise the top assembly into position. After the deck lid closes and locks,release the top control switch.

The top can be stopped at any time in either cycle (retract or erect) simply by

releasing the top control switch. When the top control switch is released, the

solenoid valves, which are connected to the hydraulic pressure lines, close and

prevent further movement of the top assembly until the circuit is reactivated by

moving the top control switch. Do not attempt to manually force the top or deck

lid either up or down.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

The electrical system includes four reversible motors; the top lock motor that

drives two hook locking rods that lock and unlock the top to the windshieldheader; the upper back panel motor that drives the upper back panel by a smalltransmission; the deck lock motor that locks and unlocks the deck lid through

flexible drive cables; and the top-deck motor that drives a hydraulic pump which

supplies hydraulic fluid pressure to open and close the deck lid and the top

assembly.

There are 11 relays; the top control neutral relay is used as a safety device

in the control circuit. This relay is located on the mounting plate located behind

the right front fender splash shield. The control circuit cannot be energized

until the top control neutral relay contacts are closed. The circuit is complete

only when the neutral switch is closed. The circuit is closed when the trans

mission: selector lever is in P or N and the ignition switch is in the ACC or ON

positiorf. The control circuit to the top control switch is identical for both the

top retract cycle and top erect cycle. Current flows from the ignition switch,through the top control neutral relay, the transmission neutral switch, and the

starter motor relay to ground. The top control neutral relay is energized, closingthe relay contacts, and current flows from the 10-ampere circuit breaker throughthe top control switch.

The remaining 10 relays are used to energize the motors and the three solen

oids.

The electrical system is protected by five circuit breakers; a 50-ampere circuit

breaker in the power circuit, a 10-ampere circuit breaker in the top control cir

cuit and three individual 15-ampere circuit breakers, one for each motor feed

circuit. The 50-ampere circuit breaker and the 10-ampere circuit breaker are

located on the wiring and circuit breaker assembly which is located on the right

cowl side panel behind the kick pad.

HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

The deck lid and convertible top ossembly ore eoch operoted by two hydrouiiccylinders, receiving pressure from one electricolly powered reversible motorond pump. The hydrouiic fluid pressure is controlled by three electricolly octi-

voted solenoid volves, two for the top ossembly, ond one for the deck lid.

DECK OPEN CYCLE:

The deck open relay energizes the top and deck motor and pump assembly andsimultaneously opens the deck solenoid. Hydraulic fluid under pressure suppliedby the clockwise rotation of the pump is applied to the piston in the deck lidlift cylinders through the hoses connected to the lower fittings of the cylinders.

As the fluid pressure forces the piston to travel upward in the cylinder it displaces the fluid on the other side of the pistons and returns this fluid throughthe hoses connected to the upper fittings of the cylinders bock to the pump andreservoir.

The cycle can be stopped at any time by release of the control switch openingthe circuit to the deck open relay. The open circuit stops the pump motor andautomatically closes the deck solenoid.

TOP UP CYCLE: (ERECT)

The top up relay energizes the top and deck motor and pump assembly andsimultaneously opens the top solenoids. Hydraulic fluid under pressure suppliedby the clockwise rotation of the pump is directed through the upper top solenoidand is applied to the piston in the top lift cylinders through the hoses connectedto the upper fittings of the cylinders. As the fluid pressure forces the piston totravel downward in the cylinder it displaces the fluid on the other side of thepiston and returns this fluid through the hoses connected to the lower fittingsof the cylinders, back through the lower top solenoid to the pump and reservoir.

The cycle can be stopped at any time by release of the control switch openingthe circuit to the top up relay. The open circuit stops the pump motor and automatically closes the top solenoids.

DECK CLOSE CYCLE:

The deck close relay energizes the top and deck motor and pump assembly andsimultaneously opens the deck solenoid. Hydraulic fluid under pressure suppliedby counterclockwise rotation of the pump is applied to the piston in the decklift cylinders through the hoses connected to the upper fittings of the cylinders.As the fluid pressure forces the piston to travel downward in the cylinder it displaces the fluid on the other side of the piston and returns this fluid through thehoses connected to the lower fittings of the cylinders back through the decksolenoid to the pump and reservoir.

The cycle con be stopped at any time by release of the control switch openingthe circuit to the deck close relay. The open circuit stops the pump motor and

automotically closes the deck solenoid.

TOP DOWN CYCLE: (RETRACT)

The top down relay energizes the top and deck motor and pump assembly andsimultaneously opens the top solenoids. Hydraulic fluid under pressure supplied

by the counterclockwise rotation of the pump is directed through the lower topsolenoid and is applied to the piston in the top lift cylinders through the hosesconnected to the lower fittings of the cylinders. As the fluid pressure forces the

piston to travel upward in the cylinder it displaces the fluid on the other side ofthe piston and returns this fluid through the hoses connected to the upper fittingsof the cylinders, bock through the upper top solenoid to the pump and reservoir.

The cycle con be stopped at any time by release of the control switch opening

the circuit to the top down relay. The open circuit stops the pump motor and auto

matically closes the top solenoids.

UPPER BACK PANEL RETRACT

During the top locking action, the top lock limit switch is actuated and the

switch contacts are closed. This permits the current to flow from the top con

trol switch, through the top lock limit switch, the upper bock panel limit switch,and the upper back panel retract relay coil to ground. The relay contacts close,

completing the power circuit to the upper back panel motor, and the upper back

panel is retracted. The top lock motor remains energized until the upper back

panel is fully retracted.

DECK LID CLOSE AND LOCK

As soon OS the upper bock panel Is retracted, the upper back panel limit switch

is actuated and the switch contacts are repositioned. This stops the top lock

motor and the upper back panel motor. The current now flows from the top con

trol switch, through the upper bock panel limit switch, the deck closed limit

switch, and the deck close relay coil to ground. The deck close relay multiple

contacts close and the power circuits ore complete to the deck control solenoid

valve and the top and deck motor. The deck control solenoid valve and the top

and deck motor ore energized, closing the deck lid. Current also flows through

the upper bock panel limit switch, through the deck lock relay coil to ground.

The relay is energized, closing the circuit to the deck lock motor. As the deck

lid reaches the closed position, the deck closed limit switch is depressed and

the deck close circuit is broken. The deck lock circuit will continue to be en

ergized, and the locks will ratchet until the top control switch is released.
