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.

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

Help with central locking, I have 1 key no problem , Second key unlocks the door and turns the alarm off when you start the car with the key, it just doesn't lock and unlock car with that key. Started doing this after the car was off the road for 6 weeks having work done. Been to dealers who have said can't do anything about it if I do not have the bar code fob that the car originally came with ?? Is this true ?? any solutions please

POST 4Original post

HI Nigel. If you have one good working key then it should be possible for it to be replicated. It could also be dodgy switches in the remote. Depending where you are in the country there should be an equivalent to the guys on the following link. I have used then (not on a Porsche, but to get a replacement immobiliser / key). Had excellent service, give them a call, if there too far away they may be able to advise on someone in your location. KeyLad in Milton Keynes Auto Locksmiths Milton Keynes | Keys-Diagnostics-coding (thekeylab.co.uk) Good luck Andy

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks Andy there is Harolds in Sheffield who put a new micro switch into the key that is working (when it wasn't ) that's the one working now (£10 ). Took this one in and they advised Dealer , I'll go back to them with that information and see what they can do. I'll let you know.
