Pc80 10 Posted September 25, 2017 It's at 55 mph isn't it? Not trying to nitpick - maybe you just haven't gone fast enough? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Herc 10 Posted September 25, 2017 Been out done 60 mph still no spoiler lift? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MZpog 10 Posted September 25, 2017 (edited) Been out done 60 mph still no spoiler lift? Could be a failed control unit (I have 2 spares for sale), maybe the micro switches in the mechanism or possible an issue with the clocks as mine turned out to be (hence the spare units).

Jim 1 Posted September 25, 2017 I've always read a number of comments about there being some wire at the back of the stereo that either becomes unplugged or incorrectly plugged which can also cause this. Does it have the OEM head unit installed still, or is it an aftermarket unit? As a cheap starter, it would certainly be worth replacing the spoiler control module which I think lives somewhere inside the dash down / under the steering wheel as these rarely fail so should be plentiful from anyone breaking a Corrado. *edit* Here we go: http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?49300-Definitive-Guide-to-Corrado-Stereo-Wiring-Mods-pls-sticky! "Don't connnect the blue/white one to anything or allow it to short to the body as it'll stop the spoiler working." *edit* Reasonably priced spoiler module from another early Corrado: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vw-Corrado-Electric-Spoiler-Relay-535919845B-/132331452675?hash=item1ecf91b903:g:u80AAOSwB-1Yy8Tm Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_mat 0 Posted September 25, 2017 Yeah it's the same feed the radio uses to do speed sensitive volume levels. A Corrado is for life, not just for the MOT. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
