My car is a 2000 986 base Boxster.
My PPI turned up a couple of codes for airbag and alarm....
Only one has me baffled as it doesn't show up in any of the searches I've done. To quote the report from the PPI mechanic:
"Codes for air bag system......0032 Defrost Button Right Side"
I can't find any reference to code 0032 in airbag code lists. Two weeks ago when the PPI mechanic gave me the report he made some comment about the rear window defrost circuit being controlled by the airbag module.
Since I don't have a hardtop (or a retrofit glass window top) the schematics only show a few components related to the rear window defrost on my car:
1) Dash "button" switch for outside mirrors and rear window defrost
2) Relay for outside mirrors and rear window defrost circuit
3) Plug behind driver's seat for connecting hardtop to defrost circuit
4) Fuse D2 in footwell fuse panel (30A checks good with ohmmeter)
Anyone seen this code before?
