Security System


Recommended Posts

My 01 Boxster S was in a significant accident and is mostly repaired at this point. My last challenge appears to be the security system. This system does not work which presents me with the most immediate problem of not being able to lock the passenger side door.

Is there a work around on the door lock button so I can lock this door some how. I presently can lock the drivers side with my key.

Thanks

When I twist and hold the key in my '00 S, both doors lock and the windows go up. Does this not work the same on your car? Perhaps you just have a broken locking mechanism on the passenger door.

Kevin,

Thanks for the reply.

Due to the fact that my security system/computer is not fully functional I can not make my car do this. I probably need a new DME, security module or both.

I need to find a way to make the door lock switch lock the passenger door, ignoring the the computer which obviously does not want this to happen?

I have a module from a 1999 boxster which I could switch out with mine but I am afraid that I could loose some of the functions that I presently enjoy.

Help!

Is anyone aware of a place that can rebuild/trouble shoot DME's and security modules?

I have a spare security module from a 1999 regular Boxster. What would happen if I put this in my 01 Boxster S?

:help:
