Multiple lock related problems (gremlins)


Recommended Posts

PROBLEMS

Key fobs did not work

Trunk would not open (even from button inside)

Engine compartment would not open (even from button inside)

Fuel door would not open (the worst for my car)

 

SOLUTION

Immobiliser control unit central locking system alarm system was blowing the fuse in that unit.  Some call this the central lock receiver.

 

I am adding this because this forum has helped me many times and I could not find my exact locking system problem.  I could unlock the car and drive the car with the key, but the rest of the system stayed in the "lock position" even when I hit the unlock button on the dash.  The unit was not original and was still covered under the Porsche warranty so while it was frustrating, it was not expensive.

 

Anyway, I stuck as many key words in here that would have worked for me and hope this helps someone else.
