Electronic Front Spoiler Not Lowering

[napower]

Well i have a 1989 r32 gts which has an electronic front lowering lip except it doesnt lower!!!. Its quite strange because when i press the down button i can hear some mechanical crap going on but its not actually lowering.

Today i discovered that if i unplug the left side hydralic you cant hear anything going on at all where as if i unplug the right side you can still hear the left. So im assuming the left side wants to do something but the right is buggered.

Could it be the electrics or the actual hydraulic motor thingo. Has this happened to anyone??

Cheers.

dont they go down at a certain speed?

[napower]

no there is a manual up/down button, however it does go down automatically after 80-100 kph or something like that.

PM me if you want to get rid of the autospoiler. I just need the actual spoiler part, mine all works but the spoiler is missing.

ok stop right there. it's not strange. your car is almost 20 years old. and so is that spoiler.. but do go on...

because when i press the down button i can hear some mechanical crap going on but its not actually lowering.

it goes down at 80-100km/h apparently, so take the car on the freeway, with a friend, get upto speed and tell your friend to hold the wheel while you get out n check.. =D

in all seriousness i would say itd be hydraulic motor, on the left, because it's getting a response in the electrical sense, but on the right side, could be electrical or both... because it's getting neither response from what you're saying

ok i have removed the right motor and it seems to be seized/stuck, so my next question i spose is anyone got one they would like to sell haha.

p.s cheers for the responses

What would you be willing to pay for said motor? They are pretty weighty though, postage would suck.

My Car;

The spoiler pops down at 80km/h.

The Down button will only work if you have the park-brake engaged.

But you said you can hear it making noises as you press the button, so you would have the park-brake pulled up already..

if the spoiler is down and the hand-brake is taken off, the spoiler automatically pops back up. Hence why you hear noises
