2004 C70 has convertible top which will retract to within 1/2" to 1" of being fully down(plate closed). what could cause this condition and can I manually complete retraction, if so how?

2002 C70 Manually Lower convertible top.

You can also find the instructions on page 102 of the owners manual.

As for why it stopped short. Most likely a micro switch are out of adjustment or the cables are binding.
See the attached file for component location.
