    They are just pop-rivets as I recall - use a washer for the replacement to prevent tear-out again.

    Violet/Violet goes to the instrument cluster. Brown/Violet goes to the instrument cluster. Brown/Brown goes to ground. If the connections are good and you have a good ground it is likely you have a sticky level sensor.

    The "Porsche anti-freeze" issue has been here for discussion since 2003 - and WE HAVE ALWAYS SAID "Don’t mix different types of antifreeze." I don't care who else has said that -- it still holds true. I will close this topic now since the original posters question (in 2005) has been answered and no new information has been presented to change the answer here.

    The fuel gauge is part of the instrument cluster - so there is no separate diagram. Have you checked the cluster to see if any other gauges are off? Check the cluster fuses? Or, you could have a stuck fuel level tank sensor.

    No - only moderators and admins can delete or move posts. This is done to prevent those that would abuse the privilege. Plus "technically" a moderated post can be recovered (for a short period of time). Just ask a moderator or admin to do either for you - they will be happy to.

    Did you use the procedure in the Lost Radio Code FAQ to get your serial number? If not, then please read that and follow the procedure and re-post the correct serial number here.
  10. Loren
    Send me the serial number of the radio via PM and I'll try a program I have for Alpine/Porsche radios. No guarantees but worth a try for free.

    Try 2170

    Please read the Lost Radio Code FAQ "Can you give me a code for my PCM? These units are manufactured jointly by Siemens and Becker, and the only place where you can get the codes required is from the dealer/OPC. The PCM’s require two codes, the ICS/Siemens code and a Becker code. The ICS is the first code requested. Sorry, the only place you can get a PCM code is from a dealer/OPC."

    Try 2139

    We have seen a number of odd issues be "cured" by using the factory diagnostic tester to force a re-program of the specific control module that is a causing the problem. Since Compass is a Porsche AG authorized option the dealer should be ready to re-verify the codes to turn that option with Porsche.

    Try 1579 hi,loren,sorry it did not work.thank you Did you use the procedure in the Lost Radio Code FAQ to get your serial number? If not, then please read that and follow the procedure and re-post the correct serial number here.

    Try 0109 Tried it, but it did not work. Entered the code and then the asterisks just came back. Is there a button that needs to be pressed after entering the code (the manual does not say so)? Thanks for helping! No, just entering the code should start the radio working on a CDR-220. Did you use the procedure in the Lost Radio Code FAQ to get your serial number? If not, then please read that and follow the procedure and re-post the correct serial number here. Hi Loren. Yes, we did use the procedure from the FAQ to get the serial number. Thanks for the help. See below: Loren, Any additional thoughts? Thanks! That (0109) is the code for that serial number. Perhaps your unit has been repaired or otherwise altered. Sorry.

    Try switching the bulb from one side to the other - if the fault follows the bulb you know where the problem is.
  25. Loren
    Most common problem like you have described is dirt and debris in the button mechanism. Sometimes an air blowout will remedy without dis-assembly.
