Spoiler Warning Lite On

[edebes]

Loren,

This is the last of my warning lights needing assessment. The spoiler warning lite comes on with the other warning lights at start-up, however, the lite remains on after the others go out. The lite only goes out when the car begins moving forward. Once out, it stays out. The spoiler, of course, is NOT up while the lite is on at start-up. One observation is that there is no lite "on" on the kick panel/fuse cover near one's left foot in either status of spoiler up or down.

Thanks again and I enjoy being a contributing member.

Totally normal. Read the owner's manual! :)

It will not go out until the car moves. In fact I think it will go out in reverse. Next time I back out of the garage I'll have to pay attention to the light.

Normal. Either in a forward direction or a backward direction, the light turns off when you exceed a specified speed. I'll echo John V in his advise to read your owners manual (assuming you are in possession of one). B)

Thanks, everyone. I will confirm in the Owners Manual.
