How to replace the battery ??
jackie2005 replied to jackie2005's topic in 996 Series (Carrera, Carrera 4, Carrera 4S, Targa)
I want to update some information for my above scenario. The Porsche center technician said why I can't open the front lid even I switch on the engine by using the external battery. Because the remote lock system are not functional when I open the car door by key manually. And even I switch on the engine by external battery. The remote lock system still locked. (included the front lid button.) The solution is press the remote button on the key once to lock the car, and then press the button once again to open the car door. The remote lock system will be reset and function again. Of course, the front lid button beside the driver is work again !! Thank you !! Jackie -
Thanks geza and Loren prompt reply !! :) Jackie

How to replace the battery ??
jackie2005 replied to jackie2005's topic in 996 Series (Carrera, Carrera 4, Carrera 4S, Targa)
the front lid cannot open when i just switch on the car. my friend and me have no idea.... So.... we driving the car to Porsche services centre..... when the car arrived at services centre, the technician pull the front lid button. and then ~~~ bommm ~~~ the front lid opened !! He saild " No problem" Oh ~~ No ...... why the front lid will open only after driving in Porsche service centre ~~~~~ I think the car need to warm up before the front lid open...... the battery should be charge more power to open the front lid .... (my home to service center around 5km) Now.... the car at service centre in checking...... it's cost me around US$100 That is my bad experience...... Anyway, thank Loren great help ~~~~ :) Really thank you very much !! Regards, Jackie -
