PCM Problems

My PCM was working fine and then after some cold weather and the car had been standing for some time, the next time I switched it on the screen flickered and then went blank. However, I still had radio, cd etc. and could faintly see the outline of the sat nav & the sound was working. Was suggested that I disconnect the battery for a few minutes then re-connect and try again. After doing this, I now have no radio or cd.

Hello,

It is a Boxster 3.2s, 2002

Sounds like you have a PCM Version 1. If resetting the power hasnt cured the problem then its possible it breathed its last breath. Not sure on the particular model you have , there may be a fuse o the rear of the unit. May be worth taking it out from the dash to have a look before deciding its all over. There are often used units for sale on e bay, will be cheaper than trying to get it repaired if its not a simle fix
