Read evidence and context

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.

Discussions that performed work without a confirmed outcome: 1

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

Leading evidence: 'Check fuse at d1 and it looked good' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, the most frequently mentioned possible cause is 'central locking system, is bad' (1 discussions; 0 report identifying it and 1 suggest it). The most frequently discussed action is 'Check fuse at d1 and it looked good' (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.

(Fortunately, after four months of owning the car, that seems to be the only damage that he did.) I take it from your post that you think that one of the switches, probably the central locking system, is bad.

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

I changed out a couple of the tip switches in the center console (defroster and alarm system), and the primary up/down window switches quit working. Oddly, the windows do go up and down as they customarily do when the top is lowered and raised. I checked the fuse at D1 and it looked good. It could be that one of the switches is bad (they are from the salvage yard), but I am not sure why that would impact the windows. Any insight into the cause of the issue would be appreciated.

POST 2Original post

What do you mean by "tip switches"? Are you talking about he button on the center console around the AC and radio units? Porsche allow for an alarm switch. What are you talking about? I'm assuming you're talking about the central locking switch? My best advice to replace the switches back the way they were originally. The security, locks, and SRS systems are integrated together. If the system doesn't sees an open circuit, then a fault will occur and in some cases limits functionality.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Yes, the switches to the left and right of the radio and A/C units. Unfortunately, a prior owner damaged the switches so that they have to be replaced. (Fortunately, after four months of owning the car, that seems to be the only damage that he did.) I take it from your post that you think that one of the switches, probably the central locking system, is bad.
