  1. I guess replacing the whole unit is the ideal solution, but I am on a fairly tight budget for Porsche ownership so trying to only spend out for the essential bits! I took this apart again yesterday and have repaired it temporarily by putting a piece of thin plastic across the top of the switch which seems to work ok for now, but isn't a proper permanent repair. I had bought another microswitch online which was quite similar and tried to swap the rubber piece which sits over the top of the microswitch but it was impossible to attach, hence using the temporary solution for now. Chicagospeed996, thanks for the offer - if the microswitch on the lock is intact, and it is feasible to send to me in the UK, that would be fantastic!
  2. Hi I have the usual issue with the microswitch on the driver's door lock having worn to the extent that it no longer triggers that the door is open, hence when the handle is released the window goes back up despite the window being open. I made a 'bodge' repair to the microswitch as a temp measure but that didn't last long and I really do need to replace the microswitch but I can only find the whole lock listed as a replacement part. I understand from another thread here that the microswitches are standard 'Cherry' parts, but it seems they make thousands of different microswitches. Does anyone know exactly which microswitch is used? Stupidly I didn't note the part number when I had the door apart... Many thanks
