delta 88 roof

The roof on my 1975 Delta 88 does not want to close. I hear a clicking from the motor(s) but no action. Does anyone have any idea on what it might be?

clicking from the electric power top motor ? like low on fluid and the motor more or less just cycling sucking the fluid then not +- ... ?

have you checked the fluid reservoir in the trunk ?
