Spoiler continues to operate semi-correctly only every other ignition cycle - I gotta believe that’s significant.
Any more suggestions? All appreciated.

Some DTC will not set the first or even second time; It takes more than one drive cycle to set the DTC.
You need to get a good scan of your car that will get into the manufactures diagnostics. It will point you in the right direction. Guessing at problems with only symptoms is a long and expensive way to fix a problem. Their are post on this forum as to good rather inexpensive scan tools that will work on the Crossfire, or go to an independent European garage/shop and have them scan your car: it will scan as an 2003 Mercedes SLK 320 R170. Hopefully that will help. Also be certain to down load the service manual as previous mentioned and read through the troubleshooting, you will need a volt/ohm multimeter as a minimum. Good Luck!
