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 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

OK and its not the fuse thats fine, they are not blocked and neither of them are working. What to check next?

POST 3Original post

They may have lost their coding i.e. the car does not think it has headlight washers. This can happen if the battery runs flat or it can happen randomly. You would likely need to visit Porsche to get them re-enabled. Does your car have heated seats? They seem to sometimes go in pairs so you may have also lost heated seats.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

haha they have water and the lights are on! I think the lost coding is the issue because they are after all an option over standard. Day has just got worse anyway because now its flashing up PSM failure, PASM failure, Dynamic cornering light failure and Drive off assistant failure so Porsche Assist are on there way. They can sort the washer issue out while they are at it. Never rains but it pours a week before you want to sell it!

Sounds like a failing battery - loads of weird electrical faults
