Question New R-Dynamic F-Type

Got my new F-Type a few weeks ago. When i push the rear spoiler button in the center console the spoiler does not lift. I press the button for over 20 seconds but nothing happens. Does this sound like a defect?

Thanks

Try turning the car to accessories (i.e. electrics on but car not running) and then push the button. It may only raise manually for cleaning.

In the US, the button only works when parked.

…except on older convertibles. We can raise/lower it manually below 40MPH.

thanks all. the spoiler did raise when the car is in park and only when turning the car to accessories. That is unfortunate. I would like to operate it manually sometimes
