  1. You should have read the Lost Radio Code FAQ first. "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."
  2. Readiness code (as defined in the Porsche OBD II manual): "The readiness code indicates that the required fault checks were performed by the OBD system. It is not important whether or not a fault was found. The readiness code is reset if the fault memory is erased or the power supply (terminal 30) is cut off when a code is stored. The readiness code is not reset when the battery is disconnected if no fault is stored. To initiate the readiness code, at least two trips have to be completed. The readiness code is shown for the following systems: - Catalytic converter conversion - Fuel tank ventilation system - Secondary air system - Oxygen sensor - Oxygen sensor heating"
  3. Is this the factory radio with/without factory amp or 3rd party radio? AM or FM or even on CD?
  4. Really? There is a whole forum dedicated to Diagnostic Tips and Diagnostic Tools.
  5. Carnewal in Belgium still has them... http://www.carnewal.com/products/P86/p86003_5V/RoW-Sport-Suspension-Package-for-2.5-2.7L Tell them you got the info here on RennTech.org.
  6. The starter battery is only used for starting - controlled by a relay when try to start. Everything else is on the main battery circuit.
  7. These cars start doing funny things when the battery is weak. How old is your battery? Have you had it load tested?
  8. B5 includes: - Backup lights - CU Memory mirror adjustment - CU Power top
  9. +1 on JFP's comments.
  10. You need to READ the Lost Radio Code FAQ.
  11. I will have a look at the wiring diagrams if you give me the exact model and year of your car.
