    Latest software version? No PSM or ABS faults?
  6. Loren
    What tool are you using to read faults? Durametric? PST2? PIWIS?
  7. Loren
    Sorry thought you had a Tiptronic. Do you have Traction Control or PSM? If so then the mismatch torque signals would come from PSM (via the wheel speed sensors). Ok - now that we know there is a supercharger and huge increases in torque. I would say that is pretty normal. 996TT has similar issues when folks the the hard there is so much torque combined with wheel slip the the car's electronics think there is a fault. So based on what you have said it does not surprise me and it will likely be an incurable fact of life for those mods on this car (same for the 996TT).

    Did you do the re-teaching process on the windows to "teach" them their limits again?

    The DME and transmission talk over the CAN network. In this case the DME senses that that the torque curve in the transmission is "out of range" compared to the torque (applied) in the engine. So it thinks the DME must be malfunctioning. By doing the accelerator adaption you are resetting the baseline in the DME. If the fault continues then either there is a communication error (usually another fault for that) or the DME is not responding as it should.

    P1508 (408) Torque Comparison Function Monitor – Signal Implausible - Fault detected during function monitoring. – DME control module Try disconnecting the battery for 5 minutes - re-connect then perform an accelerator adaption. 1. Switch on the ignition. 2. Wait one minute. Do not press the accelerator. 3. Switch off the ignition for at least 10 seconds. 4. Read out the fault memory

    No it is a bit more complicated because of the hydraulic lines and bleeding is required. You would also need a transmission jack and at least 2 people as this power door is heavy. It will also likely need to have faults reset in the control module which will require a Porsche diagnostic tool (PIWIS or PIWIS 2). On the power rear lid cars - this is likely best done by a shop with the proper tools and training. Any good Porsche shop should be able to do this.

    You need to read the fault code(s) - I suspect that you had the steering wheel off to replace the turn signal part. If you do that without disconnecting the battery you will interrupt the airbag circuit and cause a fault. Or worse the airbag trigger (clockspring) is damaged and will need to be replaced. You will need Durametric software, a Porsche PST2, or Porsche PIWIS tester to read the fault and reset it. It will not reset (for long) if there is damage to one of the airbag triggering circuits. So... step one is if you do not own Durametric software and cable find someone that does and verify it is the steering wheel airbag circuit.

    Do you mean how to steal a Porsche? I do not think that will get any public replies (and if it does we will remove them). You need to find out what the problem is using a diagnostic tool like Durametric or a Porsche PST2. We are happy to help with that.

    For the 996TT (from the Porsche Service Information Book 2001): "Two-speed compartment scavenging blower To prevent components from heating up excessively especially as a result of radiated heat from the exhaust system, the fuel pump relay immediately activates the engine compartment scavenging blower (stage 1) if the engine is running at idling speed or if the ignition is switched on ( for longer than 1 sec.). Stage 2 is actuated by the engine compartment temperature sensor. Caution! Safety note: Special care must be taken when working on components in the engine compartment with the engine running or with the ignition switch on. Switching stages: 1st stage: Ignition ON (for longer than 1sec.) or engine running (actuated by fuel pump relay via booster resistance cable). 2nd stage: At coolant temperature of approx. 105 °C or engine compartment temperature of approx. 78 °C (OFF at approx. 60 °C). After-run phase: Requirement: Engine compartment temperature with ignition OFF > 25 °C After-run ON: For 3 minutes at engine compartment temperature > 78 °C. The switch-on condition of > 78 °C is then checked every 10 seconds. The after-run phase is active for max. 40 minutes."

    That maybe able to be re-programmed with a Porsche PST2 or PIWIS tester but the US and Canada did get clusters with separate part numbers (1997 to 2001).

    :welcome: Yes, the ignition coils should be straightforward and easy with the proper tools. Check out some of the Spark Plug DIY instructions - the procedure is the same. Yes, you can replace the brake line but I would be sure and get the part from a Porsche dealer or from a good donor car. Of course the fluid for the brakes and clutch will need to be flushed refilled/bled. Again, a power bleed tool is needed and instructions can be found in the DIY section.

    None of these directly engage the starter. The ignition switch (lock) goes through the immobilizer and then through the starter relay.

    :welcome: Always helpful if you tell the exact model and year of your car please...

    996 612 070 04 is an Aerokit harness for a normally aspirated (narrow body) 996. According to the TSB for the 996TT Aerokit the correct wiring harness for an Aerokit 996TT is: 996 612 070 30
