Default 959 help required!

where does one post technical problems with a 959 ? I have a non functioning ac compressor ( no live feed to clutch) and require a wireing diagram of the heating /ac system so i can check out the pressure switches and circuits etc.
Aparently all 959's should come with the manuals in a leather wallet under the front luggauge cover,I think the one in this car is invisible!!!!!!!!!!!!
Any help gratefully received.

I believe the owner of pelican parts has a 959 that he's done significant DIY work on.

You may want to inquire there.

I can't help you...but the 959 Registry might be a good place to start.

Porsche Motor Sports does and will work on 959s. That is your best bet with this mighty rare and fine car.

They are. I just sold two 928 coolant level sensors to Boardwalk Porsche in Ohio for the coolant overflow tanks for the water cooling system. They are going in a customer's 959.

What a huge compliment to the 993 crowd and owners when a 959 owner posts a question in this Forum!
