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.

Leading evidence: 'Replace )' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Replace )' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
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.

Hi, just bought a 99 996 with an aftermarket aerokit (not sure of maker). When I go over 75, the spoiler warning light turns on I guess becasue the stock spoiler will not rise. Has anyone else heard of this issue and is there a resolution (not turning on the spoiler light at all?)
Thanks.
When a factory (Porsche) spoiler is added their is change to the wiring harness to disable that warning. You need to purchase and install (5 min max) the following new harness:
996 612 070 51 Wiring Harness.
Check whether there is a jumper connecting pin 2 (which is already jumped from pin 1) to pin 5 on plug X23 of the new wiring harness (connection to the vehicle). If this is the case, the spoiler extended signal will be constantly present at the control module and the warning light of the retractable rear spoiler will not light. (at speeds above 74mph or 120 km/h).
Connect the plug connection of the new wiring harness to the vehicle. Route the wiring harness
along the hood shock to the fan housing and attach it on the rear lid with two (2) fastening clips.
Connect the fan and interior lamp plugs.
Done.
Bocky - I think the color code on the wires is different on the 02 schematics. (Hmmm... wiring looks the same? but the color code changed). So that would imply that it might be a different harness or connector. If you give the dealer the part number (above) and tell them you want the same thing for an 02 they should be able to find it. Especially since the Aerokit II is going to be shipping in December.
Ash996 - Yes, the dealer should have this or be able to get it in a couple of days from their supply system.
This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
