Think i'll try my luck!

Saw you going along St. Clements Street today at about 2pm.
-
Yeah been trying a few times tonight. Have'nt been on there for a while, was looking forward to it!
-
Yet another car completely ruined!
-
Its friggin awful!
-
L.reg silver Supra seen parked up many times now in Connor Downs, usually near to a Mitsubishi.
-
Spoilerless black Supra, A30 near Penzance at about 5 o'clock M30 SUP. Sounded nice
-
Yep, thats me. Been there just over two weeks now, helping out in the warehouse. Sorry to hear you were made redundant.
-
Here are a few pics of inside the Active spoiler motor for anyone interested, sorry they're a bit blurry! The last pic shows the problem, a break in the wire strip.
-
Well this is strange, I've just been out in the car and the spoiler was working fine, going down at 60 ish and back up again at 40 ish. Did this 3 times. No ! warning on dash just spoiler switch light on, maybe the spoiler ecu needed to learn or something?
-
Yeah, do you think this could be an issue with the speedo converter or something else?
-
:DUpdate:D Well I have fixed the motor, had to do some soldering! I'll try and post some pics of it up later. Only problem now is that at about 65mph the spoiler switch light starts to flash along with the ! warning. Im thinking this is something to do with my speedo converter maybe? Spoiler goes up and down nicely with just ignition on and looks great!
-
Saw you tonight at about 7 heading along Penzance Promenade, then saw you again and finally again parked up near Mill Auto Parts! Supra looked nice.
-
Yep thats the one!
-
Just tried this and the flashing light on switch stopped.
-
Thats a real pain in the arse! Oh well might see if i can dismantle the motor and take a look at the switch, see whats what or whats not. Thanks again for all your help Garfy.
-
No, im not looking to sell it, I only got it last week!
-
Thanks for that, very helpfull think i've found the problem now. I powered the motor fully up and down a few times and found that with the spoiler down i have continuity between pins 4 and 5 but with spoiler up there is no continuity between 4 and 3. Does this sound like the switch in the motor is buggered? Tested the interior switch for continuity again and its fine apart from the illumination circuit part.
-
Heres a page from the manual showing how i checked the motor.
-
With ignition on and the spoiler up im getting nothing at pins 1,2 and 4 but getting volts at 3 and 5. No volts show at 1 or 2 with the down button pressed so wondering if its the ecu.
-
Looking in my manual it says to check the switch positions for continuity, i have checked them they are ok but the illumination circuit has no continuity. Would something as stupid as the 3 bulbs not working in the switch cause the whole unit not to work?
