asdf 0 Posted November 6, 2011 I have just got another Corrado and the spoiler seems to raise at 60mph. Is this normal? My last Corrado raised at about 40-50. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dragon green 5 Posted November 6, 2011 Yep,quite normal,i swapped my spoiler control box for a later one,mine now raises similiar speeds to you ! you can get a box from a left hand drive model that raises it at 75mph ! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
asdf 0 Posted November 6, 2011 I'd actually prefer it to raise at 40ish. I have a complete spoiler + tailgate left from my last one. Any chance the control box is located in the tailgate? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No, It's under the dash by the button for the spoiler. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yandards 0 Posted December 13, 2011 Just be aware that very early models have a different plug connection than later ones for the spoiler control module. As for raising and lowering speeds, the Corrado is designed for the spoiler to raise at 72mph IIRC. This obviously caused some issues for the UK model as the legal limit is a bit less than that! So early models came with a raised speed of 47mph instead. This speed was changed with the introduction of the VR to give a sportier feel to 58mph.

Cluffstarr 0 Posted April 8, 2018 Hi guys, Sorry for the thread resurrection. The spoiler on my corrado comes up at over 70 so guessing (given what I’ve read here) that the ecu has been replaced at some point for an eu one...? Anyway, plenty about on eBay etc. I’ve got the cover off from under the steering wheel, but I’m none the wiser as to where exactly the ecu is? I can just see all the fuses and relays? Anyone got a picture?? Many thanks in advance Cluffy Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dragon green 5 Posted April 8, 2018 It's by your right knee ! There's a metal bracket on the cabin side of the dash,180 degrees from the fuse box. What year is your Corrado ? As the very early ones had a different spoiler module,(70mph) that I don't think are interchangeable with the later 45 & 58 mph ones Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dragon green 5 Posted April 8, 2018 Vr's are the later module, It is possible to change the "diodes" inside the box to tailor it to your own requirements There was a how-to on the old Canadian Corrado forum Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cluffstarr 0 Posted April 8, 2018 Vr's are the later module, Which is what I understood from the threads I’ve read, the “B” part number? Confuses me more as to why mine doesn’t work until such high speed if they’re not interchangeable...! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dox 23 Posted April 8, 2018 (edited) Can you take the cover off and inspect the board inside? It could just be the capacitors have died due to age? Edited April 8, 2018 by Dox Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cluffstarr 0 Posted April 8, 2018 A&C sorry I haven’t got a B Hi, So I’ve removed mine and the part number is ‘D’ on the end. Figment looks exactly like your ‘C’ though... do you know what speed a ‘C’ should switch the spoiler up? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cluffstarr 0 Posted April 8, 2018 Looking again, are A and C interchangeable? They look similar... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
