Default Convertible top goes up but not down

1994 xjs top will not go down. The quarter windows go down. I tried another switch and relay . I can hear the relay click when I push the button. The motor does not make a noise. I looked at the schematic and it says when the motor is grounded the top is "active". I tried to operate the motor by grounding the wires with no luck. Anyone have any input on this? It was working fine until one day it suddenly stopped working.

I can also hear a whine sound coming from the pump area. Cant exactly pinpoint where it is coming from. It sounds like the convert pump though I unplugged it and the noise continued, but could be just the fuel pump? It also sounds like it may be coming from the module.

Since the top does go up, Im assuming the pump is ok?
