Center Console Micro Switch
Demetris Nenes replied to Demetris Nenes's topic in 996 TT, 996 TT S, 996 GT2
So I thought so... thanks for confirming this Loren! -
Hi all, Just wondering what does P/N 996 613 205 00 do in the centre console? Is this related with the alarm system? Brgds

Hi all, I was working on my driver's side vent assembly today and i noticed a small cover that its existence made no sense to me (P/N 996 552 621 01 A03). So i looked up the parts and saw that this is where the headlight levelling system (M605 build option) switch is. And then when I searched around I couldnt find anything on this - not even a photo of how the switch actually looks like. Has anyone have this option? Then this made me wonder does my 2003 996TT with stock bi-Xeon lights have the headlight levelling system? I was reading that one way to know if this system works is that when the car starts the Xieon lights go a "bit" up and then down. Is this true? Thanks guys!

Hi all, I have different kind of problem. My rear spoiler will work absolutely fine (auto up/down and also from the button located in the central console, but no light will pop up in the instrument cluster. Also when I turn on the ignition all lights will come and except the light for the rear spoiler. Thinking that I am dealing with "light bulbs" I removed the instrument panel (also changed the broken clock shaft) but I realised that we are dealing with very small LEDs... bummer. Any body has any feedback on this?

Dash Bulbs

Just opened my cluster (2003 996TT) and it seems that the warning lights are all small LED. I guess I should stop here as it would be impossible to change those? I have to change my broken clock shaft anyways so I am happy I have gotten this far. Your kind attention on this would be appreciated as I have my cluster open in my living room!!! 🙂 -
Ignition Angle and Air/Fuel Ratio
Demetris Nenes replied to Demetris Nenes's topic in 996 TT, 996 TT S, 996 GT2
I had Porsche reprogram my DME, which they guaranteed the car would return to stock performance. Well what a difference did that make to the car. The car is idling on lower RPM, "feels" less powerful on lower RPM, but at the same time it is much more smooth. Of course once you are above 3500 RPM the car is transformed! 🙂 I need to hook up the durametric tool and see what are now the ignition angle values! -
Any feedback on this "Instrument cluster total distance 14712"?

did you ever find the answer to this one?

Just wanted to say... this is amazing info! Thanks all! -
Hi all, I purchased and installed the new PCCM+ for the 996TT (P/N 996 642 59000). After some issues with the sound, Porsche realised that they also needed to install a control unit (P/N 996 642 58000 - cost is about $140). Initially I did not second guessed it but then I saw the photo below which states that it is in the original package (it the second box from top left side). Can any of you confirm that this control unit is installed? Especially for my European readers. Brgds

Instrument Cluster Lights
Demetris Nenes replied to Demetris Nenes's topic in 996 TT, 996 TT S, 996 GT2
If you pay attention to the photo I post below: 1 is the airbag (this one comes on and off right away - should be good I assume!), 2 is for the rear spoiler? It never comes on but I know the spoiler works great and 3 is for the cab (don’t have cab so should be OK to be off) your photo maybe is from an older 996? mine is 2003 996TT

Hi all, This is what my instrument cluster looks like when i insert the key and switch it on (engine off). All the lights except the two shown (air bag and rear wing) are on. Is this normal?

I guess I will be driving on the right lane! 🙂

Hi all, I have been using this tool for over a month now. My general feeling is that its super outdated and for the amount they charge they need to have a more modern software/interface. Also surprised its missing some key engine parameters, ie oil pressure and has no manual to explain some actual values, ie spec RPM! Would love to hear your thoughts.

Curious - what does the sun sensor do to the car?
