    I would put a mechanical pressure gauge on it before doing anything else; you need to know what the actual pressure is before doing anything else.

    Anyone could have hooked up anything to this circuit; people do the damnedest things to electrical systems. Without looking at it, it is impossible to know.

    Welcome to RennTech For a first timer. I would recommend disconnecting the battery.
  5. JFP in PA
    Take the system up to at least 18 PISG, that is where it normally runs, so if anything is gong to fail at that pressure, might as well be in the shop.

    Welcome to RennTech The windows are operating as designed. To make them go all the way up, the microswitch above the rear view mirror needs to be depressed and held. Porsche made a cheap plastic clip for this purpose, which your dealer can get for you.

    Welcome to RennTech Start by posting in the correct forum thread; Lost Radio Code - post your request here

    Welcome to RennTech ECU Doctors

    Basically, yes. Something is pulling a drain on the system somewhere between the fuse block and the spoiler, trick now is finding it.
  10. JFP in PA
    OK, D7 has been used for hazard warning lights and/or the spoiler, but at some point someone may have cut into it to add something. In general, the spoiler or hazards should not be drawing current when not in operation, as you showed when you disconnected the plugs. You need to trace the circuit and look further.

    Welcome to RennTech Year and model of the vehicle please

    Welcome to RennTech

    Just make sure the converter us fully seated into the gearbox before reinstalling it. If it is all the way in, it should spin freely with the gear box in place; if it binds, it is not all the way in.

    If you scan the car with a Porsche specific tool, it can tell you what triggered the last ten alarm trips.
  15. JFP in PA
    It is air bound, you should have pulled a vacuum on the system to get the air out and then (still under vacuum) refilled the system.
  16. JFP in PA
    Welcome to RennTech Just be aware that your system operates at 18 PISG at 210F, conditions that blowing into it can never replicate.

    Long before I would be spraying deodorant all over an engine, I would add Uview UV oil dye to the oil and trace it with a black light; works like a charm but does not smell as nice.....
  18. JFP in PA
    Just don't expect it to deal with many Porsche codes, which most generic OBD II scanners cannot even see...………..
  19. JFP in PA
    Without a good look, it is almost impossible to say where it is coming from. A good start would be to clean off the engine and then monitor it for leaks...…..
  20. JFP in PA
    Then give them a call, it may be part of the wiring harness that only comes with that section of the harness.

    Welcome to RennTech Have you tried looking the car up on board sponsor Sunset Porsche's parts website? They have the entire Porsche parts system diagrams on line.
  22. JFP in PA
    Yes, egas is electronic throttle; and there are no such things as stupid questions
  23. JFP in PA
    Your car is an e-gas model.
  24. JFP in PA
    Let's start with the obvious: If you blew a head gasket, you are the very first one to ever do that. The multi layer steel head gaskets in these engines are stronger than the block or heads, and never fail, ever.
  25. JFP in PA
    Which is interesting as Porsche never printed them in the first place...………….
