Default Convertible top timing?

Hello everyone. So when the top opens the trunk pops up and the 2 covers start moving to the top on the trunk. They stop half way and the opening process halts. Lexus says I need to re-time the top. I have searched through the lexus TIS and here and cannot find instructions on how to do that. Any ideas to time/calibrate the roof? Thanks.

I had a similar issue and that plastic piece that goes up near the back head rests was slightly bent and getting stuck. The dude who tinted my windows must have been leaning on it when he did the window and bent it. I just had to straighten it out. It drove me nuts until I figured out it was hitting some other parts and stopping the roof from going back. Good luck!

Did the retiming work? I have the same issue.
