So when I get in my car, it now says "hardtop not locked" the moment I try to move my car and the convertible control button on the center console is blinking red. The trunk won't open and it chimes at me over and over until I stop moving. Any ideas?

These are the errors I get from ISTA-D:

A694 Hall sensor, right coupling fastener released
A693 Microswitch, coupling fastener closed

Also, this is the hall sensor: I01208 that it says is opened:

Okay, I fixed it. After pulling my rear quarter panel interior for no reason I went back to the trunk and started feeling around with my hands. I noticed a loose wire by chance and it turns out it must have came disconnected while searching for a place to route my wires for the backup camera.
