Spoiler stopped moving up and down on my 996 cab. No alert sent to dash. I was able to activate the spoiler with an outside 12V DC source, but not with the dash switch. I'm down to the relays, dash switch, or the microswitches. I thought I'd start with the relays first. I see them on the schematic, but would like to know where they are physically located. BTW, will my Durametric tell me anything? An thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated.

Behind the rear seats and besides the ECU.....Same for all the 996 turbo...Where do you plug your source to get it to work? Fuse D7 is also part of the picture....

My ECU is on the rear bulkhead in my Cab. I need to take the tub out to get to the ECU. Are the relays located next to the ECU in the cab as well?

Strange there is no mention of the relay carrier being in another location for the cabriolet.... Hope someone will come with an answer....

On the components location of the wiring diagrams there are many switches location for the cabriolet and no mention of a different position for the spoiler relays.....

FWIW - here is a shot of my cab with the "tub" cover removed. Is that the relay group you are looking for?

Yes it is!!! Wow first time I got a chance to see this. Thanks for posting!!!!

Strange, you got a relay in position 5 and no mention of this relay in the wiring diagram...Must be for the removable top ????

mmmmmm ........I can only guess - side flap motors / retracting clamshell body piece / front top latch / auto-window control (if you keep your finger on the top button the windows will go up after front top latch engages)??

Exactly what mine looks like. It looks like the same layout of the relays too.
