Hi we just saw your post on Rennlist.

Have you already gotten a solution for your issue?

If not, please call us directly on one of these numbers: (954)652-1496, (954)652-1497, (954)306-6195

It's true our 800 # does not work when calling from Canada.

Hi there, thanks for the reply. I have instructed the owner and we are sending the components out to your business for repairs/inspection. Kind regards.

UPDATED: the alarm module had to be coded for european/domestic body style. the DME, key and alarm module were all sent to ECU doctors in Florida. Although they failed to follow my specific written instructions in programming the alarm module the first time, they accepted the return and sent back the package with no charge once it was properly set up. The car started the first time after receiving back the set of components but none of the alarm functions worked, and this was because the repair house didn't code the alarm to euro/Rest of World ROW. After returning the set they corrected this issue for no cost and once it was installed the alarm and engine all worked as normal.

 

There was a combination of wiring harness issues that had to be repaired along with incorrectly programmed alarm module which was ordered from the local dealer. From what I heard the Porsche dealer here locally does not support foreign market cars and refused to;

a) do the job correctly the first time b) provide follow-up support

All they had to do was take notice of the VIN code showing it's a euro market body style, because on the 996 the lock system is having different wiring and components than the US market made cars.
