987: Front control module DIY?
Hello,
I helped a friend get her 2005 Boxter dried out after she found it was leaking (the "pan" on the passenger side under the soft top). When I plugged up my Durametric to make sure the Airbag light got cleared (passenger seat was out for a few weeks) I found it also had the C127 code as well.
She says she's had the "visit workshop" message for awhile now. She also says that the high beams will randomly turn on without her doing it and without the indicator turning on.
In researching the C127 code I found that the headlight issue may be related (if not the cause) and that the front module is the source.
What I haven't found is details about where the module is and how to replace it (all the references I found were of the dealer replacing it). Does anyone have this information?
Also, does anyone have the current part number? The ones I've seen don't appear to exist and since what I think it is from the AutoAtlanta diagrams I don't want to guess wrong at $450
Thanks,
-dave
