Help with rear wing please, not the same old question...
Hey guys,
ok so on my new to me 997.1 TT it cane with the wing issue, I knew it but given the low Milage beautiful car it is I accepted it. When I got it the failure warning would come on as soon as I hit the 76 mph mark and there was oil present so after much reading i pulled the pump and rams off the car, to my surprise there was no oil around the rams, it was leaking from the pump. so instead of sending it off to Florida to be rebuilt I got into it myself, seems the banjo bolt for the driver side ram was leaking, I pulled both lines and began the bleeding process and after about 20 times I had both rams raising too 2 3/16”. Yay! Sort of...
put it all back together and just went for a ride, at the 76 mph mark it went up and no failure, which was awesome, however after slowing down the wing did not retract and the f’ing failure light came on!!!! So mad!
after getting back I turned the car off then back on and was able to manually lower the wing with the switch.
I did kinda pull one of the limit switches out of its socket before I realized the whole thing unscrews, you guys think it could be the microswitch?
Any help would be much appreciated!!

Thanks! I’m am aware of your Eram kit and at one point had my CC in hand about to order, no phone number on your website btw or I probably would have, however I’m a huge fan of keeping a car like this stock so for now it’s on its way to be rebuilt. Comes with a warranty so for the next 3 years I’m covered.
