Simple job? I wish


Recommended Posts

Hey All,

Hoping someone can help me. I just completed what i hoped was the simple job of replacing the passenger side vanity mirror - and it was thanks to the instructions that Loren provided. However I now have electronic demons. The lights in both vanity mirrors don't work, not that big a deal - however neither do my windows roll up and down. As they were down at the time i did managed to get them to close using the key in the door but the switches themselves don't work at all. I am also unable to lower them again (but at least the car is secure now). Additional things now not working are the door lock button on the dash, which i never use but hopefully will provide a clue. All other stuff appears to be working. I can't be the window fuse as they wouldn't have closed with the key (?). The dealership said that when i may need to have everything "reprogrammed/reset" which sounds $$$.

Any ideas?? Any help most appreciated.

Martin

Hey Loren, no it didn't.

However in my panic what i should have done was keep reading the service manual section. I found the high amp fuse part and didn't keep reading as there are also 2 more fuses in the regular box. I got a bit thrown by the fact i was able to move the windows up but not down - good ol' Porsche for giving you a way to secure your car!

Lesson learned- RTFM - completely!

Thank you
