Wow Pat, that's a new one on me. It sounds to me that when you spun your wheels the on board computer (let's call it HAL) got confused and momentarily thought you were up to 60 mph, so it raised the wing.
Then when "Hal" realized the front wheels were hardly turning, it forgot that it had mistakenly raised the wing, and when you tried to put it down manually, "Hal" ignored you, because it still thought it was down. By shutting the car off, you reset "Hal's" memory.
Obviously I'm no computer wizz, but I'd rather think you simply confused "Hal" than to think you may have a short.
Like the song says, "Don't worry, be happy". Well at least until "Hal" starts acting up again that is.

Just don't get locked out of your car, with out your "space helmet".
