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.

I checked the ECU already for damp spots or water as I've read that in another post but they are dry.

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.

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

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

My Keyless entry/alarm fuse keeps blowing. It doesn't blow right away. It will work for some time and then blows after driving it a few times. Because of this, it's been difficult to diagnose. Any ideas or what I can do to diagnose it properly? Anyone ever have a faulty door lock actuator that would intermittently short out or something? That's the only thing I can think of at the moment. TIA

POST 2Original post

Do you have a Cabriolet? Did the control box under the left-hand seat get wet?

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

'01 C2 non Cabrio. I checked the ECU already for damp spots or water as I've read that in another post but they are dry.

POST 4Original post

Still sounds like the alarm control box. Have you checked for faults with a Durametric or a Porsche tester?

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks, I don't have durametric but I'll try that next. I didn't realize durametric could pull alarm codes.
