So, my Durametric indicates that I have an alarm arming issue on my 1999 C2 that is related to the Interior Sensor. I need access now to check it out and/or replace it but I am unsure of its location and best way to access it. I have read several posts on this unit but no clear details on the replacement. Any tips would be greatly appreciated!!!!

I too would be interested in this. One thing to check on the Durametric is the 'Count' value to indicate if it was just a once off issue or a regular one. This will be useful in determining whether it needs replacing.

I replaced my sensor about 8 months ago and very straight forward in my 98 Boxster. I had a count on my Durametric that kept increasing. When I set the alarm nothing would trigger it. I orderd a replacement from Sunset installed the new sensor in twenty minutes or so and everything works.

Okay, thanks and I will check that out.

I will check out the count and then think about the sensor replacement as sounds like a snap to change out. Thanks

I would reset the fault and see if it comes back - if it does then it likely needs to be replaced.

I will do that Loren, thanks. Is it safe to assume that the sensor is part of (or is) the LED unit on the forward, top portion of the dash?
