Default My beep does not always go off when lowering the spoiler?

So most of the time when lowering my spoiler on the crossfire it makes a beep, I like it, I know when it's fully down. But recently it doesn't always do it. One minute it will, beep. The next hour or so later it will not beep when lowering the spoiler.

Any ideas?

Is it a common fuse to blow? Or is it something more?

Seems mine will beep if I manually raise, then lower the spoiler if I am stopped, but if it goes up due to me going over 62 MPH, then I slow down to 55 and lower it, it never has beeped.
I'm used to it, I just hold the down switch until I can't see it in the rear view anymore.

2005 Owners Manual, page 83

The spoiler can also be deployed at lower speeds using
an override switch mounted in the center console.
Once manually deployed, the spoiler will only retract by
pressing the bottom of the spoiler switch. The spoiler will
then retract in steps as long as the switch is depressed. If
the switch is depressed until the spoiler is fully retracted,
a short beep will be heard, and automatic control will be
reestablished.

When driving, I'm right on the dot, up60 down35. The automatic controller on the spoiler does not beep, I don't think it should, but when I choose to put it up, or lower it with the manual button it is random, the beeping does not always sound. I'll keep looking into it, maybe it's a fuze. But I know the beeper does work, it beeps when I leave the lights on and the other general **** it beeps for.

Mine beeps 80% of the time (when manually operated). When it doesn't beep, I've taken it for a drive just to make sure all is good. Though it didn't beep, it deployed at 65 (like usual) and went down at 39 (also as usual). So now I do not worry if it does not beep - I know it is still working properly.
