Doesn't having it on auto run through a pressure control switch, when you reach a set boost level it activates the waterspray. When using it on manual, you control the spray when desired. If in this case, could be the pressure switch that has failed. I have a waterspray on my version 1 Sti, but it is only manually operated.

On my STi 5, (I assume) the SVA people had plugged the wrong plug into the back of the switch (it should light up when on auto) - look behind the switch and there may be 2 connectors (both the same size) - may be worth swapping them round (as I did!)
