    Hi My 2003 996 C2 coupe o/s/f window has stopped working. Its stuck at the top, does not budge when locking / unlocking the car. I can hear a noise from inside the door when moving the window switch, seems louder when pressing the "up" button - bearing in mind its already up! Also since I have had the car (3 years) the sat nav has not worked for 80% of the time, its not reading any satellites! Any ponters/help etc would be great Kind regards Jon

    Hi Me again with 996 C2 Man with PCM2 The car has had a new battery and front s/assys and since then the gps is not seeing any satellites, and the clock that takes is time from the gps is not working Have tried various fixes: disconnet battery 1-4-8 on sat nav taken out fuses left car outside etc and still no satellites being seen so thinking that the GPS antenna is bust, - could anything have been damaged when the battery was replaced? To check the antenna is best to start with the PCM2 end or up on the dashboard? My DIY skills are poor Any advice - help - suggestions would be great, Have to say that I am on a budget and cant afford dealer prices Thanks in advance, becoming obsessed with this

    Now sorted Posted: Sat Oct 09, 2010 9:42 am Post subject: Help needed, problems with satnav and clock Hi Would be very grateful for any guidance - help with my problem Have a 2003 (2004 model) 996 C2 man with pcm2 in the UK When we were on hols in Somerset i set the sat nav to get us home, within a few miles the displays kept on comming up with "off road" Thought it was just a glitch, took the satnav cd out, left the car for two weeks. Went to check the car last Sunday and its still the same, the car still thinks its in Somerset - according to the map, I can put a destination in and the car calculates it as if its still in Somerset. Have tried 148 to reset, then I thought i would disconnect the battery, so undid the negative lead and tha alarm went off, put the lead back on and the alarm stopped, by this time I was fed up and thought I will reset the clock and have a drink, reset the clock but now the time does not change. The clock in the dash is there as well as the one in the Pcm but the the displays do not change! Any advice would be great, my blood pressure is off the scales with my pride and joy not working Many thanks Jonathan
