Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

This time, I was getting PSM failure messages sometimes and check engine messages another time after starting.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1Original post

I made a brake fluid flush , and clutch bleed and after starting the car and driving I get this message " System Fault visit workshop" and a picture of a LIGHTNING BOLT. It comes on and off al the time. Any ideas?

POST 2Original post

I am getting the same error message - did you find an answer?

POST 3Original post

When you did the flush did either of you start the engine or have the ignition on when opening the bleed screws?

POST 4Original post

From what I have read if you rub polyiester in the front headlights, enough to create static, it ruins the fron control unit. As ridiculous as it sounds seems to be true. I can imagine the mechanic leaning to put brake fluid make the static. Seems to be a known error for 997 and 987s. Can anyone get the part number and where to buy it cheap?

POST 5Original post

The front control unit has generally been a problem. Porsche is on their 11 rev on it. W/Xenon Headlamps 997 610 105 11 W/O Xenon 997 610 106 11 Both of these list from Porsche at $169.18 Best, Scott

Bump on this thread... I had some work done at an independent shop a few weeks ago... including brake fluid flush. Afterwards, I got the "system fault" message. They can read out PIWIS messages, but cant write anything in. Their readout indicated some kind of airbag problem. I have aftermarket seats, and the dealer had to code out the bags in the seats before all this. I thought I would have to go back to have them fix this again, but didnt have time to take care of it then. So, I left the car sitting in the garage for about a week, and the battery was dead at that time. I thought, fair enough, I left the dome light on or something, and recharged and went on my way. Then, I left the car sitting for a couple weeks again. Dead again and I recharged again. This time, I was getting PSM failure messages sometimes and check engine messages another time after starting. I called the dealer and their first impression was that the battery was the culprit. I took the battery out of the car and had it checked at AutoZone. They had some handheld tester thing that said the battery was bad. Is this tester accurate? Should I try replacing the battery first or just let the dealer have at it?
