A friend of mine has 991.2 and was having an issue with rear camera and rear parking sensors.  I scanned the car with my PIWIS 3 and got the following attached error  message.

 

Recommendations please

Please use a Porsche-specific scanner.  Kidding!!!  If you can't set it to english I can have my wife translate all of this stuff for us 🙂

 

It's telling you in German that there is an issue with the parking sensors.  kurzschluss basically means short circuit on the G204.  The G203 and G206 are getting no signal and the G204 and G205 it is saying has a defect.

 

Sensor for Parking Aid; Rear Left (G203)

Sensor for Parking Aid; Rear Mid-Left (G204)

Sensor for Parking Aid; Rear Mid-Right (G205)

Sensor for Parking Aid; Rear Right (G206)

One other thing I find interesting is it seems like Porsche has changed the convention to the VW-style naming convention for sensors, etc in the newer series like 991.2.  G203, G204, etc... this is VW/Audi style language.

Thank you. Just to clarify... The language is set to English but it is nteresting these specific fault messages were in German. And thank you to your wife, however when I use development/engineering mode ( which displays messages in German ) I just use my Google translate app.
