Check fuses. Also try running it above deploy speed and then slow down to below retract speed and see if it resets itself (mine hung once and that worked for me). Good luck.

Did you try opening and closing the rear hatch then pushing the down switch?

When my Crossfire was new, my wing would go up, but not down until I did the
above. Turned out the wing unit needed to be replaced.

I had the same problem the very day I drove it home from the showroom, took 5 service calls to get it fixed.

T,

What was the problem in the end? Motor? Electrical?
