Good advice Bob, I have had the exact same problem with a sticky switch. I clened the sliders well and lubed it sparingly with a little lithium grease. Its 100% now.
One question for you. When my soft top comes to rest on the top of the windscreen, it ofter but not always requires a little tug or a lift and drop to engage. It locks tight and does not leak. Are new latches in order?

I don't believe you need new locks, but a slight adjustment to the latch may help. By the way, M-B does not consider it abnormal for the top to require a little manual assistance as you describe.
