Gents - this is in regards to my 2002 Boxster S, but it's the same switch as on my 1999 996 C4, so I'm guessing you guys will have an answer quicker than I'll find on the Rennlist Boxster board. 2002 Boxster S. 6 speed. PSM option. The PSM switch appears to be inop. I know it has worked in the recent past... In "teching" the car for a DE this weekend I went to toggle the switch on/off. The switch only "floats" back and forth between the two positions. There is no "click" like you'd normally feel when disabling the system. The yellow light does illuminate when the ignition key is turned to the accessory position, and it goes out (indicating the PSM system is on) when the ignition key is on, so I'll assume power is getting to the switch. Does the failure of the switch to toggle between the two positions indicate a bad toggle switch, or does it indicate a problem in the PSM system itself, which in turn disables the switch's ability to turn the PSM system on/off? Edit: I should add - no problems/symptoms w/ the braking system. No codes being thrown. Inputs/ideas/solutions greatly appreciated! Thanks, Rick

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.
