    If you were local I would do it for you. Check the PST2 & Durametric Tool Registry list for someone in your area with a PST2 or PIWIS. Folks here won't charge you - dealers likely will. http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=13779

    Is your OBC turned on now? That is, do you see outside temperature displayed? If not you will need to find someone with a a PST2 or PIWIS tester to turn it on for you (a 5 minute job).
  3. Loren
    :welcome: Here is the technical description from the MY99 Porsche Service Information Book. The whole book as well as many others are available to Contributing Members here online. OBC_MY99.pdf And here are the scanner pages (on OBC) from my MY99 Carrera. I have not scanner the whole manual since doing so breaks the binding. Porsche did not start offering PDF versions of the manuals until MY2003. MY99_OBC_Owners_Manual.pdf Where are you located?

    I would clean the MAF and reset the codes then see if it comes back.
  5. Loren
    Sorry, Chuck he says his car is a MY01 - so it would be the electric release.
  6. Loren
    Try 7626 or 7624
  7. Loren
    Try 0135 or 0133

    999.571.076.02 Headlight tool -- MSRP $11.99
  9. Loren
    Do not let it get the control box under the drivers seat (that is your central locking/alarm control). Very expensive. Do a search here on drains - I have posted diagrams for both coupe and cab.

    I think it is law in the US - so that you don't mistake fogs for brake lights.
  11. Loren
    On US cars there is no bulb on the right side and only the one fog light is wired.
  12. Loren
    Look for a bad ground. An ohm meter should help you find the problem.
  13. Loren
    Have a look at the Adjusting Hood Latch Mechanism DIY... http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=5619

    The 997 has a different part number 997.645.140.02. Sorry, I do not know the differences. The 996 change does not have a superseded part number.
  15. Loren
    Homelink did not come out (for Porsche) until the 9x7 series cars (and the Cayenne). As I recall there are two pieces - one that goes behind the front bumper and one that is in the mirror. I doubt the 997 mirror will work in a 996 since it attaches to roof rather than the front windshield.
  16. Loren
    Either can be used. You need a PST2 or PIWIS tester and then follow the procedure in TSB 5/02 9120 Activating the CD Radio "Porsche CDR 23" -- dated 10-11-02.
  17. Loren
    Try 8240 or 8238
  18. Loren
    That has all been covered in this thread previously (several times).
  19. Loren
    There is a TSB on this...
  20. Loren
    Look for a Brown/Blue wire from the original radio connector and remove the pin and tape it (or cut and tape the wire).
  21. Loren
    The radio/nav wire is in the connector plug (unless you cut it off).
  22. Loren
    Durametric usually fixes errors pretty quick when folks tell them about the error. NAV/Radio wire (when using after market) -- Taped up and tucked away.
  23. Loren
    Try 0327 or 0325
  24. Loren
    Fault code 54 Radio receiver defective Do you have an after market radio? Fault code 33 Passenger compartment: monitoring sensor faulty Bad passenger compartment sensor? Fault code 42 Wrong key or wrong transponder pill Sometime a bad transmitter battery will give this code - especially if you reset it by reversing the battery. Fault code 60 Central locking limit position 'Locked' not reached Most often caused by not having the door shut all the way and hitting the lock button. Personally I would erase these codes and see if they come back.
