  1. Oddly sometimes an intermittent brake light switch (on the pedal) can cause this. Other things to look at are the speed sensors on each wheel.
  2. If your radio has been repaired by a third party rather than Becker then I can not help you. The code numbers are reset after any repair so Becker has to either set them then (if possible).
  3. The algorithm is wrong. The code is based on the last four numbers of the serial number. In your example the correct code would be 2342.
  4. Many strange electrical issues on Cayenne's can be caused by a weak or failing battery. Have your battery load tested or if it is over 4 years old replace it.
  5. Not that I am aware of. You might talk to Palo Alto Speedometer Palo Alto Speedometer: Repair, Restoration, and Sales of Automobile Gauges WWW.PASPEEDO.COM Palo Alto Speedometer specializes in the complete repair, restoration, and sales of automobile gauges.
  6. You will need to check your state's laws. In California you must go to DMV and sign a document stating the "real" mileage and the new mileage on the new/used odometer. Also, stating that you will give this information to any buyer.
  7. Okay, that is for the carpet trim not the tail light. 999 049 005 40 Plastic Nut T5/27x9.8 -- US MSRP $3.49 each
  8. I don't know for sure but I doubt it. The CDR-23 and newer radios all use the MOST fiber optics to speakers and amps. As well they talk on the car's CAN system to the DME which is where you enter the serial number info.
  9. CDR-23 (or later): These radios do not have a security code - that is, not that the user enters. These radios are security tested on the MOST (fiber optic bus) system to see if they are the "programmed" radio. The radios are programmed and recognized by the car’s DME and can only be replaced by a shop with a PST2 or PIWIS. These radios will not request a code when battery power is disconnected.
  10. From the Lost Radio Code FAQ... "The suggested number did not work - what do I do now? Most often when the code we give you does not work it is because the serial number came from an old card in the car rather than from the procedure stated above - or a typo in the serial number submitted. Double check the serial number you submitted using the procedure above again. If that does not work then you will need to contact a dealer or Becker. Becker charges to look up your code and some dealers also charge. Our program works maybe 99.9% of the time but we have no explanation why it doesn't always work."
