Too long a story to go into, but suffice it to say that my 2003 986S Tiptronic needs its engine wiring harness replaced. The part numer on that original wiring harness is

 

986 607 011 16

 

which has been superseded by xx18

 

I have access to a harness with a part number of xx14

 

Am I correct to assume that these are backwards compartible? What differences are there between the xx16 and xx14?

 

Thanks Carlos

I have the same car. 2003 saw an upgrade in the engine management system to Bosch Motronic ME 7.8, so I suspect that the answer to your question re compatibility is no.

Suggest you contact Sunset Porsche in OR. The bay harness has been changed a couple of times, and they should be able to tell you what harness you need from your VIN. It is imperative that you get the right one as these harnesses are anything but cheap, and often non returnable.
