986 Boxster electrical and wiring


Recommended Posts

Can anyone help me find an electrical wiring diagram for the 986 Boxster trunk actuator switches located in the driver's side door sill? I have tried due diligence in searching but have not been able to find anything. The front trunk actuator works when I connect it directly to the car's battery but, when I try to use the actuator switch in the door sill, nothing happens. I have used a test light on the switch and it appears to be working. I would like to find a wiring diagram to include wires to and from the switch so I might be able to locate a fault along the way. The Porsche is a 2001 Boxster S with manual transmission and the upgraded sound system with factory installed amplifier and trunk mounted cd player. Haven't discovered any other options yet. Thanks!

I pulled some diagrams from ALLdata, sorry I couldn't put them together and draw a line, but I named them where they should go. The switch is located on the center bottom diagram, and the latch is on the Left diagram. Hope this helps
