Top is stuck in down position

Hello,
My convertible top is stuck in the down position. I lowered it to remove/change the driver's seat. Top went down fine. I installed the new seat, and suddently the top will not go up. The fuse is OK. It appears the motors are not getting an electricity. When you hit the button, there is no sound at all from the top motors. Any suggestions?
Thank you!

Check the power top relay at the right front of the luggage compartment.

Thank you. Is that relay something I should be able to find easily?

Our reference doesn't have a picture. There may be other relays mounted with the soft top relay.
