Default Spoiler deploys when car is started

This just started today. When I turn the key to start, the spoiler deploys as the engine is cranking. If I just switch the key to On it doesn't do it. Only when I turn it to start.

Otherwise, the spoiler works as designed. It deploys and retracts at the designated highway speeds and the overide switch operates fine also.

Anyone hear of this? Where should I start troubleshooting?

Thanks

Curt

Go to the battery store. Dozens and dozens posts about it.

The question was answered in four minutes - easiest one we've had in some time.

I don't get it. What is the battery store and what does that have to do with the spoiler?

Replace with an AGM, they last much longer. I like either Duracell or DieHard Gold when on sale.
