    The dealer's PIWIS tester should have caught a bad control unit. I would start following the wiring back from the front right sensor looking for damage by road hazard or even mice chewing on the wires.

    Have someone press down on the boot (gently) while you release the switch.

    Could also be the cam position sensor itself.

    Those MY08 wheels have different offsets which I guess you found out.

    So it did work at one time? Seems like a Porsche shop with a PST2 or PIWIS would be able to narrow it down more. Or at least try to reprogram it. One hesitates to remove the steering wheel because of the airbag (spring) and some delicate wire connections. But in the end that may be required.

    Chances are you are going to need to get into the inner door by removing the panel. Besides the microswitches look for wear on the the latch mechanism (for remote locking) as those wear out also. Check the windows regulator (cable) if it is worn replace it.

    Have you tried re-training the window? Here is what you do - press and hold the window down - once it is all the way down continue to hold for 10 seconds, Next do the same for window up - hold until up then hold another 10 seconds. Let us know if that fixes it.

    I've known more than a couple MY97 Boxster owners that have to replace one or both O2 sensors every 2-4 years. I can not say that the issue is not the harness - but changing any harness is not an easy task. For some reason the heating element on MY97 cars seems to trigger these faults and I though it was a design/programming issue on the early cars. Just me 2 cents...

    is your car an "S"? I seem to recall you had to use an "S" bumper or a Carrera bumper.

    Central locking synchronization Fault code 46, 47 These faults are stored in the memory if at least one safe contact does not reach the safe position after two synchronisation actuations towards safe. 1. With PST 2 (drive links), check whether the servo motor reacts with the door closed. If the servo motors react, select "Driver's side locked" and "Passenger's side locked" in the menu item Input signals, and close the doors Vehicle not locked Central locking limit position unlocked not reached Fault code 61 This fault is stored in the following cases: Short circuit to voltage/ground or open circuit in the supply lead to plug II pin 3 Short circuit to voltage/ground or open circuit in the supply lead to plug I pin 5 Short circuit to voltage/ground or open circuit in the supply lead to plug I pin 28 Short circuit to voltage/ground or open circuit in plug I pin 29 Short circuit to voltage/ground or open circuit in plug I pin 30

    From the Lost Radio Code FAQ... "Can you give me a code for my PCM? These units are manufactured jointly by Siemens and Becker, and the only place where you can get the codes required is from the dealer/OPC. The PCM’s require two codes, the ICS/Siemens code, and a Becker code. The ICS is the first code requested. Sorry, the only place you can get a PCM code is from a dealer/OPC."

    Bad slave cylinder, bad bleed valve, clogged brake clutch line? The car is likely 20 plus years old.
  24. Loren
    The car needs to have both the tie rods and the suspension checked for wear or damage.
  25. Loren
    Fault code 49 is the seatbelt buckle on the passenger side.
