It's not that I'm looking down at lesser cars (although I am), https://www.crossfireforum.org/forum.../icon_cool.gif it's that the Spoiler went up on ignition 3 weeks ago, and will not obey the button press to close itself. Any ideas why?

Thanks,
Adam

 

Battery.....?

 

+1 on the battery. Do you know if it is the original one that came with the car?

 

I highly doubt it's the battery, as my mechanic just replaced it in November with a brand new one.

 

One more thing to know: the last time I had him change the oil, for some reason the "mileage countdown" thing on the odometer didn't reset. So now, it insists I'm 1300 miles overdue for service. Does that have anything to do with it? I.e., the car is trying to get my attention?

 

Is the red LED blinking or lighting up at all on the spoiler control switch? You may want to check the fuse (should be #19).

 

Resetting the oil mileage can be tricky. You can try to do it yourself. See: https://www.crossfireforum.org/forum...tml#post108692

 

itsky, the LED is not lighting at all; I hadn't thought to check the fuse; excellent idea!
As far as the service mileage; I'll be getting another oil change when I put the Blizzaks on it in October, I can tolerate it until then. I think.

 

itsky, my fusebox (on the driver's side dash panel) only goes up to 12. Is there another box somewhere? It's a base model Roadster, if that makes a difference.

 

never mind; I found the other box under the hood. The fuse looks fine; no break. Oddly, though, I don't have a fuse for the seat heaters, which makes me wonder why they still worked this past winter. Hmm.

 

If you have a base model you will find that they did not come with seat heaters.
If you have seat heaters then someone added them and they may be fused elsewhere.

The spoiler issue may be to do with the speed sensor, that has occurred before I believe.
Someone will correct me if I am in error I'm sure.

 

Check my post "spoiler up and so is top" I just got back from dealer and it was the limit switches on trunk lid. They had corrosion on the connectors. Worth a look. Good luck, Ron

 

Onehundred80, yes I bought a set of slightly used leather seats, and had a mechanic install them. I'm curious how he wired them, and if that has anything to do with the spoiler issue.
ReliableRon, we checked all the connectors for corrosion or looseness, but they all looked good & tight. Is there a way for a non-hanydman like myself to check the speed sensors, or am I pretty much dealer-bound at this point?
BTW, thanks for all the suggestions and help! At least I got the "service needed" indicator reset out of all this! :-)

 

jump up and down on it...something will have to give sooner or later....I guess I should ask if it has warranty or not before that suggestion...

 

Maybe, just maybe it's a "Valley Girl" from California and that's why it's "STUCK UP" (i'm just to funny sometimes) "-" Good luck if that's the case
