Default soft top won't open 14 Ftype V8S

Adding to the list of Jag owners whose top won't open. 2014, 12,500 miles on it. Passenger side motor won't unlatch. Windows come down, drivers side motor releases, passenger side remains stuck. Car is on a CTek charger. Disconnected the battery to see if it would reset but no luck. As indicated by other owners with this issue, no warning prior to failure, top never had any issue going up or down. Only issue ever with this vehicle thus far. Dream car otherwise.

If you (or a passenger) gives it a NUDGE when you work the switch, will it release? Perhaps it only needs a drop of oil.

EDIT: If the Nudge releases that side, the rubber seal could be sticky.
