Question fuses/relay

Hey there. I have an '88 cab. Recently the high beams don't work and it sounds like only one horn works. On top of that the fogs won't light up at all. Any thoughts??? Where r the relays located for these things or which fuses are they. At this point all fuses seem fine which leads me to believe its a relay. I just dont know which one to check.
Thanx

Sounds like you should pick up a copy of the owners handbook, which spells out what the fuses and relays cover, amongst other things. Should be part number WKD-911-021-88, and around $20-$22. Any Porsche dealer can sell it, or you can try Reeves in Tampa or Sunset in Oregon for a discounted price. (BTW, sorry, but I don't have the fuse/relay information for your model here).

Cabdriver, in your trunk on the left side there is a plastic cover over the fuses and relays. Take it off and look inside. The relays and fuses are listed there.

Pick up a copy of the Bentley 911 Service Man. for '84 - 89... best $80-90 you'll spend.

As for the fog/high beam, that's 2 ends of the same rope. The fogs go off when the hi-beam are on so maybe a ground problem?? Fog lights are relay #5, horn is relay #4 but I suspect the horn problem is just a bad connection at horn or a bad horn itself (BTDT) otherwise neither horn would work.

Need more help email me and I'll do what I can.

Still, suggest you get the Bentley!
