Thanks for the updates! I'm kicking myself - the center console latch is broken and I was at a junkyard this weekend and almost grabbed the center console latch from that car but I didn't have the right tools and decided to pass on it (this is before I realized there is a microswitch in the center console). I was going to go back on Sunday to pull it once I realized the microswitch was there but they crushed the car. I hear the car latch and unlatch when I use the key (and the 2 beeps) so I'm hoping it is a door latch but will look into the center console too.

My son and I took out the spoiler from the car, dismantled the entire mechanism, removed all the old grease and re-greased the mechanism and added graphite to the tubes that lift the spoiler. Works very smoothly now but haven't had a chance to get it on the road to test the automatic up/down.
