Rear wing deployment

I can't get the rear wing to go down manually on a C4S '06, please help. Thanks for any input.

You have to hold the button till the light goes off.

The light never comes on. The PSM light turns off and on just fine next to it, I don't know what's up.

Any ideas, to help a n00b? I hold the button down and it doesn't light up, ever.

If I push my button the light comes on and the wing goes up. If I push it again off goes the light and down goes the wing. Sounds like something is wrong with yours. See the dealer and have it checked out.

Hold the button for a second or two and then release it. If you want to retract it then you hold the button. Also, is the spolier deploying automatically at speed?

Cool, if it's as easy as the manual says, then it is non-functional on mine - so time to go to the dealer.

BTW, a friend said the wing went up "she thought" as I was making a low-speed (2 mph) u-turn so other than that, I haven't verified if it's lifting at speeds or not.
