I give up-cannot fix this........HELP ME
Decided to keep the car...borescope is fine. I think the car knew I wanted to sell and the electrical gremlins came out.
Attached is the fault code scans.........PSM and PASM do not work. Heated seats do not work. Convertible top works.....

Might start with checking the battery's health with a battery tester at your local autoparts store.
If healthy, clear all of the codes, disconnect the negative cable from the battery for about 30' then reinstall. Objective is to reboot all of the modules (aka computers).

What aftermarket items are installed and tied into the canbus network? PCM/stereo, BT kit, 3-axis accelerometer for DSC contoller, etc?
Remove the negative battery cable. Follow the positive battery cable to the connector pin in frunk, release locking clip and slide off, look for corrosion on the pin and inside the female connector.
Follow the battery ground cable to the chassis. Is it tight and free of corrosion?

When my spoiler button and PSM button stopped working, it was the switch module. After 2 weeks of the dealer tracing wiring (switch unit checked fine with ohmmeter), they replaced the switch anyway and the problem was fixed. Apparently there was a burned trace in the switch that could not handle the real signals.

Also check fuses....often over looked but you may have popped a fuse.
Your car thought it was for sale, this is part of the Porsche Retribution Package.....tell her she isn't going anywhere take her for a spirited drive to get her back in good graces.

I’ve been looking for the paperwork and have not found it yet. I must have mis-filed it. If it is the same as the Cayman switch, it would be like this one:
