    Help

    Loren replied to dcz's topic in 356 Series

    From the part number - likely a 1980's Porsche 928.

    According to my old 993 manual... Fault code 53 is injector valve cylinder 2 Power supply Disconnect valve plug, connect voltmeter to the injector valve plug terminal (refer to diagram and ground (engine)). Ingition on. Display: Battery voltage If there is no 12 volts there then you need to look at the wiring. Checking coil resistance of injector valves Disconnect valve plug. Check coil resistance at injector valve terminal contacts with an ohmmeter. Test value: approx. 16 ohms If that tests ok then the injector is still likely bad - just the plunger is either stuck or damaged.

    According to PET MY01 has a different part number from MY00 and earlier and MY02 and later. MY01 was also the last year of a gloss black finish. The parts list says (only) 996.653.101.08.EFR

    Try 2472 or 2470
  8. Loren
    Did you try cleaning the MAF too?
  9. Loren
    Try 1343 or 1341 Hi Loren, Just tried this, but it didnt seem to work. Any other ideas? Thanks Russ Hi Loren, Just tried these codes again, but still no luck. Any further codes? Many thanks Russ Please re-read the FAQ... I answered that there too.... :huh:

    Loren, my battery is totally dead. I have searched for and read every post on this emergency cable and still haven't been able to find it to release my front hood. I have a USA 2002 Boxster S, have felt everywhere that seems logical in the top of the left and right wheel wells, behind the coil, pulling away the plastic liner. You mention the "left" wheel well, is that also the driver side wheel well on this car? Also, I found instructions both here and on another site that described an unlocking sequence that should have popped my hood, using a battery charger to that red pull out fuse, with the left door open, turn the charger on, the alarm goes off, then push the door latch to the closed position, lock and unlock the door and then open the hood. Multiple attempts at that failed also. Do you have any ideas here? I'm now getting a little desperate. Thanks, Mike Um...

    Try 1343 or 1341
  12. Loren
    Are you sure it is filter and not the foam insulation inside the housing? Check with the car/fan off.
  13. Loren
    1. Have the battery tested an auto store (new batteries are under $70). 2. If the battery proves good then I suspect that you have a bad ignition switch. Covered here many times before and there is a DIY for replacement.
  14. Loren
    Less than 2 hours... No patience eh? Make sure the key is out of the ignition and the battery is disconnected - FIRST. Preliminary work for DME control module in Cabriolet 1. Removing cover over the motor 1.1. To loosen the carpet, pull out the plastic clips with a trim pry tool and take out the carpet. Removing DME control module in Cabriolet 1. Unscrew the four fastening screws 1 for the control module and lift it out. 2. Press in the connector and pull it off the control module A. 3. Press in connector B latch and actuate the latching lever.

    Sorry, I still don't see that you have told us the model and model year of your car...
  16. Loren
    Try 5384 or 5382
  17. Loren
    Yes, the PST2 can program 4 or 5 different program maps (depending on model year). Some may not be compatible with your O2 sensors/cats. Be aware that you will not pass smog test with the RoW program. You would need to go back to the US program and give the car a week to reach smog readiness state (sufficient data to pass smog).

    it should look like the one in the DIY: How to change your Pollen Filter (Cabin Filter, Particle Filter)
  19. Loren
    OBC is a separate computer so the functions in the cluster should not change. Any OBC displays in the NAV will not be there with an after market NAV.
  20. Loren
    Pollen filter = Cabin filter They are the same. Porsche uses the words interchangeably.

    Lost Radio Code - FAQ, PLEASE READ THIS FIRST The radio show: Pr-vers. R1097 Serial N w5018969 Try 7481 or 7479
  22. Loren
    It's been discussed here many times... http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=17011 http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=3169
  23. Loren
    DTC 70 or P0740 = Solenoid valve, torque converter clutch. Open circuit/short to ground. 1. Check ATF level. Erase the code and take for a test drive. 2. Re-check for fault codes. 3. If the fault recurs after the test drive and no other faults are stored, the following fault possibilities can be present: -Electrical activation of pressure regulator 4 not OK (diagnostic trouble codes 83 and 55 present?). -Mechanical defect in pressure regulator 4. -ATF supply to the torque converter clutch not OK. -Converter defective.
  24. Loren
    Check your wheel offsets.
  25. Loren
    I still think you need to see your dealer (since the car is under warranty). You do not lose almost 2 gallons of coolant without some major going on.
