    I just tried the article link and it works fine (over 200 downloads as of today). The article and pics are hosted here (by permission). You will need Adobe Acrobat Reader (free) to read the article.

    Just a vent line that goes nowhere. Nothing to worry about.

    Did you check the intermittent wiper relay (position 16)?

    I have the preliminary 997 service manual and the wiring diagrams are not in it yet - so I doubt the 987 wiring diagrams are out yet either. In the past they have usually come out 8-10 months after the first car ships. I'll keep my eyes open though...

    The last owners manual I ordered through Sunset Porsche (Porsche Parts at Dealer Cost) was $18.

    I don't know that it can be unlocked and then relocked... or perhaps reprogrammed and then locked? I guess you won't know until you try. If not, then you will need a new trigger unit..

    MY99 and MY00 were very close.

    Well, it helps if you have the right socket for the seat bolts (E12- external torx 12). It is also handy to have a second person help so you don't scratch anything.

    Too be safe - no key in the ignition and disconnect the battery (remember your radio code?). Make sure all electrical connections are securely made before hooking up the battery or putting the key in the ignition - or you will get an airbag light.

    Oddly enough the MY99 C2 DME schematic shows the OBD II connector and wiring yet the MY C4 (egas and DME 7.2) does not. The DME 7.2 OBD II wiring does not show up on a C2/C4 (egas) schematic until MY00. Most of the unused pins are not used at all.

    The only listing for an airbag fault 100 says to replace the triggering unit. Here is what the service manuals says about replacing the trigging unit:
  15. Loren
    996 106 250 55 Hose - retail $50.88 (as of Sept 2005) Be sure and ask the dealer for the appropriate screw-type hose clamps for this hose. There are 4 different clamps.
  16. Loren
    Look under your car and follow the hose and look for two small connections on the hose. I think it is item 18 in the diagram above. If so you will need 4 new screw-type hose clamps.
  17. Loren
    IMHO a good dealer will do it for free (it is not even a 5 minute job) the first time. And, then perhaps charge you if change it again.

    I sent you a PM. Contributing Members can view TSBs online as well as a Contributors Only Forum, they can send attachments with PMs, image storage limits are raised for all Contributing Members, RennTech.org email addresses are available and now a personal Blog.

    It is hard to tell from the pic... Do you think it is item 23 or 24?

    So if I understand - it is the triggering unit under the drivers seat - and it coincided with the removal of the drivers seat? Hmm... all the cables are plugged back in? and the control unit has not gotten wet? Also, did the dealer say what the airbag fault code number(s) were?
  22. Loren
    Left side (drivers side US) is 996 701 801 00 Right side (passengers side US) is 996 701 802 00
  23. Loren
    I don't think the mounts are any different. Are you sure you are putting them on the right side? There is a left hand one and a right hand one.
  24. Loren
    I think that's rubbish. Mine is a 2000 model and the 997 seal number 997 101 212 00 was fitted at Porsche Stuttgart three weeks ago. I can fax you the invoice if you want. Obviously it's in German, but it's got the part number on it. Cheers, Uwe I agree. The September 2005 parts list shows it as the replacement for all model year 996 and 986 (as well as 997 and 987).

    No, find an independent shop that has a PST2 or PIWIS tester. Wher are you located?
