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

Hello ladies and gents. I didn't want my first post to be asking for help, but I'm in a pickle. I just bought a 2006 Boxster S with CDR24 with Bose that is stuck on. I can't change the volume, the station, or mode. The display is blank, but sound is coming out to the last FM station that was left. In addition, all the center console buttons (climate control, PSM, and rear spoiler control) don't work. I checked the fuses and they all look good. I even replaced the good ones with known good ones and nothing. The battery was recently replaced this a new one and it didn't help in any way. I know the CDR24 has issues, but I know that this is a bigger issue because all the switches in the center dash don't work. Can someone chime in to help me? Thanks in Advance, Jimmy

POST 2Original post

This is a weird one. Some things to check: 1) Check the battery voltage - I know you said the battery is new, but low voltage can cause strange behaviors. 2) Could be a computer glitch - the usual advice is to disconnect the battery for a few minutes and then reconnect. You'll get some error codes, but they should clear after you drive it a few blocks. 3) If you are able, remove the side panels from the center stack, and unplug + reseat the connectors. Good luck, and let us know your progress!

POST 3Original post

Thanks for the reply. I will definitely try all of the above.

POST 4Original post

You musta missed THE fuse. Search on here to finf THE one. Pull that fuse, reinstall it, and your radio will be unlocked. Happened to me when i bought the car.

POST 5Original post

I FIXED MY PROBLEMS!!! Turn out it was the actual radio unit, HVAC unit, and multi-function switch that fried. I replaced everything with known good units and....boom!....everything worked (except radio says "PROTECT" now). Thanks for all your help guys.

POST 6Original post

Dealership can unlock the radio if you don't have the code using their PIWIS , but hopefully you have the code and can unlock yourself, should be with your manuals.

POST 7Original post

The dealership said that the CDR-24 cannot be unlocked without their PIWIS . Is that right?

POST 8Original post

I never locked my CDR-24 so I cannot say for sure, but the prior radio I had in a 986 Boxster got locked accidentally once and I was able to unlock it myself, I seem to recall the owners manual having the instructions and there was a separate card with the radio code in my glove box packet. What does your owners manual say about it?
