Default Little problem lowering the top.

So I went to lower the top today since it was nice and sunny and it started to go just like normal than when it was almost all folded the top on the rear passengers side would only go down about half way than would not move. It would go right back up fine but it would not close all the way...anybody know what the problems is and how to fix it?

Sounds to like the cylinder on that side is binding somehow. Pull the trunk liner and crawl in there to inspect.
