Hi everyone, I am looking for a bit of advice to help me overcome an electrical problem I developed when modifying my 996 MY2000 to take a double DIN stereo.


I managed to move the Climate Control Unit and cabling without incident. However it seems in moving other cables (loom) out of the way I damaged a couple of cables . These have not been cut right through but 'snicked' showing slight crush damage. This was enough to create a spark and as a result I have lost the following functions:

• No electric windows
• reduced instrumentation (Shows oil pressure only)
• manual Aerofoil button does not function

As far as I can tell all other functions work fine - she starts, headlights, washers, horn, indicators, CCU all fine.


I temporarily bridged the fuse panel to prove the electric window motors function normally and the instrumentation panel is not dead. Both proved good.


I have checked all fuses in the drivers footwell and only one would appear to have blown - Heater Fan. I have replaced this but am still missing the functions listed above.


I would appreciate any help or advice that you may have.


Thanks and Regards

I think you need the water cooled forum , the 996 forum specifically
Good luck !
