Rear Spoiler
 
Ok, so the spoiler goes up @ 75MPH. When does it go down? I doubt @ 74MPH, it would be going up and down like crazy with my highway driving. Anyone know?

it goes down at 55 mph...

Ahh, I knew it. Thanks:D

It goes down at about 50 mph - as stated in the owner's manual. Been on just a few Boxster drives in 4 years to watch them go up and then go down at about the speed stated in the owner's manual. Jeff

I didn't get an owners manual with mine:(

deactivated spoiler
 
anyone know what to look at to reactivate my spoiler?

It was deactivated due to having a solid mounted rear spoiler on the back. I already checked the fuse, but don't know what else to look for. Relays?

Thanks in advance,
Will

I have a 1998 Boxster, is it possable to put the spioler up while it's parked?

woboxster,
there's a switch located by the dead pedal. just press it long enough up or down when key is on. :D

When I purchased my 2000 S with the Aero kit 1 mine would not move also. Under the the plastic piece that covers the latch in the trunk. (2 Screws hold this) Mine was inpluged try this. Also after I pluged mine in 1 week later I unpluged it the lines to the car were not the same with both spoilers. imho I hope this helps. :cheers:

To make the spoiler go up when the car is parked you don't have to hold the button. It will automatically raise with just a button tap. To make it go down completely, you do have to hold the button down for a few sec. The car does not have to be running either, you just need the key in the on position. Alittle water usually settles under the spoiler after a washing, so I raise it up and get under there with a shammy.
