Hi,

At least on mine, the switch must be pressed and held until the Spoiler fully extends, but I only have to press and release the switch to lower it, and it lowers itself until it is fully retracted. FYI...

Happy Motoring!...Jim'99

Someday I might have something to contribute! Not sure when, but it may happen...I figure if I post enough I might run across something profound...kind of like the story of the 100 monkeys randomly typing on typewriters and if they type long enough they might produce a broadway play?

This is strange because my car is the exact opposite.

HI,

That is weird. Maybe one of our cars has the switch wired backwards. I added the Dash Mounted Spoiler Switch Hack, but wired it according to the Directions. Next time I'm foolin' around in that neck of the woods, I'm gonna swap the leads and see what happens. It makes more sense to me that the switch should deploy the spoiler One Touch than retract it.

Happy Motoring!...Jim'99
