    If you mean the rectangular frame that goes around the climate control then it is 996.552.677.00.01C. If you mean what is inside of that frame - then that is the control unit itself - and that will be expensive.

    I am getting the rear spoiler failure light. Spoler does not go up. What should I do? Thanks David Under what conditions? What model year car? Standard, or aftermarket spoiler?
  3. Loren
    Just to clarify... The standard rear tire on MY99-MY01 with 18" wheels was 265. MY02 and newer got 285's. There is no problem running 285's on the standard wheels. Porsche did that on the GT3 Mk1 and I have been running 285 rears on my MY99 car for over 6 years.

    Only Moderators or an admin can change a topic title "after the fact". I have edited the title here.

    There is a TSB on this dated 9-28-01. Basically Porsche changed the heat range from a 5 to a 6 on cars build after August 14, 2001. Any and all replacments are to be the newer plug (heat range 6). The correct plug for all TT and GT2 is 999.170.195.90.

    You did check the fuse in the front trunk? Panel 1 (center panel of 10 fuses) fuse 3 -- should be 25A

    The alarm system goes through a self-test and a zone test prior to arming. During this preset test the alarm light to flashes at twice it's normal rate (twice per second) until all zones are checked and the alarm goes into "armed" mode. Then the alarm light flashes normally (about once per second).

    Part 2... Because of your water damage you may want to check these ABS ground points too. Ground point 2 = The ground point is located on the left in the luggage compartment Electronics ground = The ground point (arrow) is located on the dashboard support frame (A)

    :lol: :lol: :lol: a bit off topic here but I did get a chuckle out of the instructions pic with the word "Illustrationation". I think something got lost in the translation...

    Most dealers in the bay area give minimum discount of 10% to PCA members. It looks like Sunset's price much better than that (plus no tax). I doubt any bay area dealers have one in stock either.

    There have been a few of these. Have someone with a PST2 or PIWIS look at your CDR23 fault codes. The problem is usually a bad radio or bad amp (I think I've heard of more bad amps).
  15. Loren
    MSRP is $5502.93 -- and they quoted you list price. You might want to check with Sunset Imports (Porsche Parts at Dealer Cost) for a better price... 9 hours sounds a little steep to me. I would estimate 2 hours actual labor - likely 4 hours total including testing, gear oil, etc.

    All of the Tip test procedures are in the OBD II manual for MY99. I would certainly walk through the tests and the actual readings and then compare them against a know good running Tip. The PST2 can read: Input signals can be checked and read out with this menu: - Selector lever position - Selected gear - Multi-function switch - Kick-down switch - Downshift switch - Upshift switch - Manual program switch - Stop light switch - Traction Control The following actual values can be read out with this menu: - Rpm - Transmission input speed - Speed, front right - Speed, front left - Speed signal, transmission - Throttle plate angle - Transverse acceleration - Transmission temperature - Supply voltage - 1-2 shift, lower rpm range - 1-2 shift, medium rpm range - 1-2 shift, upper rpm range - 2-3 shift, lower rpm range - 2-3 shift, medium rpm range - 2-3 shift, upper rpm range - 3-4 shift, lower rpm range - 3-4 shift, medium rpm range - 3-4 shift, upper rpm range - 4-5 shift, lower rpm range - 4-5 shift, medium rpm range - 4-5 shift, upper rpm range - 5-4 shift, lower rpm range - 5-4 shift, medium rpm range - 5-4 shift, upper rpm range - 2-1 shift, lower rpm range - 2-1 shift, medium rpm range - 2-1 shift, upper rpm range - Map and The following drive links can be controlled: - Solenoid valve 1 - Solenoid valve 2 - Solenoid valve 3 - Coolant shutoff valve

    Check the wires on the sender unit http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?s...ost&p=54332 If it is not something easy like that then it is likely the sender or cluster. We have seen a few senders go bad. If you have access to a PST2 you can tell for sure http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?s...ost&p=54838

    I don't see a part number for LSD parts for a C2 after 1999. Only the 2004 Anniversary edition has an LSD and the part number is for transmission and LSD. 996.300.020.07 6-speed w/LSD -- MSRP $11,560.88 (does not include installation)

    When the front bumper cover is aligned it takes two people. With the bumper cover mounting screw/bolts loose align the bumper cover and tighten the screws. Close the front hood and check the alignment - if it is not right (even with the hood height) open the hood and re-adjust. Once the hood and bumper cover are aligned you can tighten the other bumper cover screws/bolts.

    There is a TSB about specific VIN numbers of MY05 997's with front strut noises. You will need to see your dealer to see if your VIN is on the list.

    1. 37 ft/lbs. for standard belts - 48 ft/lbs. for the 6-point racing belts. 2. Nor do you want an airbag going off. 3. Great advice! Thanks again.
  23. Loren
    Have you had a look at the mechanical cable connections? Also, ... If neither of those help let me know and I'll see if I can find my 930 service manual and lookup the wiring.
  24. Loren
    If you remove components you just need to use a PIWIS tester to turn off the removed devices. Chances are you would only see the errors when you hooked up a tester anyway.

    Is the problem that the fans don't turn on? or does it blow cold air?
