Limit switches, but yes, you got the right idea.

When the wing is up, the max limit switch is hit and thus it completes the circuit that lets the car know the wing is up and you are safe.

When you lower the wing, there's another limit switch that alerts the BCM that the wing had fully retracted, stopping the motor.

I removed my wing assembly in favor of the SRT wing. Simply ground out the "max" limit swithc for the "wing up" position and the car will leave you alone, thinking your little flappy wing is always deployed.

Little does it know.... MUAHAHAHAHAHAAH
