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.

6 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1Original post

Hello all. I have a 2006 Cayman S manual with 96k miles. I recently went to start my car and the battery was drained. I figured it would be time for a new one, the old was some Interstate battery. After installation of the new Duralast Gold battery, the car will not start. The car still unlocks and the system recognizes that it is key 2. About a month ago I replaced the ignition switch and starter, so I don't believe it could be those. Just last night, I switched out for the old ignition switch to try to troubleshoot, but still the same symptoms. Taking the seat out and examining the immobilizer, there didn't appear to be any damage. (Is there a safe way to open the immobilizer box?) So, quick break down, let me know if you need more info, Key in, recognizes that it is key 2. Turn to key position 1, nothing Turn to key position 2, nothing, can't read oil or any other driver info Turn to 3, then try positions 1 & 2, nothing Clutch micro switch has been tested I do not have any other keys to try. Does the dealership need the car present to make another key? The symptoms are almost identical to another member Sixer http://www.planet-9.com/987-cayman-...roblems-and-complaints/102952-car-wont-start-help-wont-recognise-key-video.html Thanks, let me know if there are some details missing.

POST 2Original post

Same thing happened to my 2009 Cayman S. Check the clutch switch. The switch that identifies the clutch being engaged prior to starting the engine.

POST 3Original post

Hello. Have you tried holding the key fast against the starting position for at least 20 seconds? That overrode an issue I had with my '06 CS. Keep us posted on result...

POST 4Original post

Clutch switch has already been checked.

POST 5Original post

Holding the key in the start position for 20 seconds did not do it. Same result

POST 6Original post
