Could be many things. Does the parking brake dashboard light come on when the brake is applied? Could be micro-switches in the hood frame, hood motor etc not working. This forum has many suggestions for you to check http://www.renntech.org/forums/forum/46-986-boxster-top-issues-and-solutions/

Ye's emergency brake light does come on. Owners manual says, "All three turn-locks of the luggage pocket must be engaged and correctly locked." Where is the "luggage pocket?" What are the "turn locks?" Any guidance is much appreciated.
