Ignition Switch Replacement

[Jeff_C]

Need a little help (yes again)...

Can anyone help me get a pdf of the parts of the tech manuals required to replace the ignition switch and steering lock.

According to the TSB it is Group 2 Repairs 28-1 and Group 4 Repairs 48-19 and 48-21.

Also, where would one get a full set of these documents as it seems that I need them every few weeks.

Thanks,

Jeff

Each section of the manual is $110 for Porsche's Tech website (or $5,200 per year subscription for all of them).

You might also try member Porschelibrarian.

The switch part only is covered pretty well here.

curious to you exact symptoms, could you share?

Thanks, Loren. It seems those manuals would be quite beneficial to own.

Anyway, it turns out the biggest symptom is that I am a dope...it turns out that while it seemed to be a bum ignition switch (heck I was so convinced I even ordered the part from Sunset while limping the car home) it actually was a screw loose in front of the steering wheel. :( Earlier in the day I took a quick swipe of a leather cleaner around the dash and I must have hit the ignition kill switch the previous owner had installed! Of course my wife recalled this fact even though I didn't but since I was so convinced it was the switch she didn't bother mentioning this little detail :cursing:

Let the ridiculing begin....
