  1. The fuse wiring does not run to either of the light assemblies direct, so I can't comment on what your measuring.

     

    The fuse wiring runs direct to the "onboard computer network control unit" as per the diagrams I have.

     

    From the control unit, there are seperate outputs to the individual cornering light assemblies.

     

    Creating direct connections to the light assembly may cause damage to the control unit.

     

    What is known about the cornering light system is that if either the left or right circuit is not connected properly, both lights will be disabled.

     

    I would look at confirming the integrity of the connections of the headlamp assemblies to the car wiring when installed.

     

    A loose connection in either assembly connector would disable your cornering light system.

     

     

     

  2. Check the cable that runs from the lever to the transmission mode switch on the transmission.

     

    I've read that the cable may stretch and not position the mode switch correctly down on the transmission.

     

    It may be possible to remove the slack in the cable by adjustment as per link below.

    .......I know I have continuity from the fuse to the left side headlight but not to the right side......

     

    Can you specify from which points you are measuring from.

    Specifically what fuse and what headlight connection socket position.

     

    There is no power circuit direct from the fuses to the headlight, the power circuit goes via control modules.

     

    You may also be chasing a missing ground for no reason.

    A quick check is if your high beam is turning on when selected, the MB6 ground is ok.

     

    As there are multiple ground circuits from the headlight to MB6, may I suggest you carry out the following procedure:

    You should have continuity when measuring from the right headlight socket positions A7, A8, A10 to any part of the chassis.

  4. There was a Porsche introduced power kit with code name IE81 that did convert the stock turbo cars into turbo S variants.

     

    It included the upgraded engine ecu, intercoolers, suspension components, brakes.

     

    When incorporated, the letter "S" is stamped on the engine block.

     

    Ive attached the relevant reference for your info.

  5. Voltage from alternator seems normal.

    Reseat fuse that supplies power to the comfort control module.

    Try reseating the electrical connector to the CCM as well.

    Also reseat the tail lamp electrical connector assemblies.

    Do you have the original rear tail lights without the LEDS still available?

    Try plugging them in to see if it is the light assemblies causing your issue.
