I recently had to replace the water pump on my 2001 Boxster. This all went fine, however, the red light to the right of the temperature gauge is blinking at 1 Hz. I've read this indicates low coolant level. I followed the factory procedure to bleed the system and it is filled to the max, but the light still blinks. Also, the gauge is flatlined to the left. I replaced the temperature sensor near the #4 cylinder head without improvement, and the wires "look" ok. All the fuses are good. Does anyone know the procedure to troubleshoot this wiring? Or the pin and socket numbers for the wiring diagram? The temperature gauge worked fine before the water pump blew up. I did recover most of the impeller, but a few small pieces are in there.

Same thing just happened to me. With newish battery fully charged, drive 5 minutes. Park for 5 minutes, Drive 3 minutes. Park while getting gas—car won’t even turn over. Charged battery again for 3 days and took it to the parts store as first step in diagnosis, and they found the battery to be defective. Glad I didn’t have to go down the trail of pulling fuses and changing the ignition switch.
