Will it need coding as I’ve used the dme and key from the donor as well.

The car starts first time perfectly, however once I’ve switched it off it won’t then restart until I disconnect and reconnect the battery.

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

Hi everyone, I acquired my first Porsche earlier this year which is a 2000 c4 cab Tiptronic. It’s a bit of a project, but generally seems a solid car. It had a dead immobiliser module when I got it, so I’ve swapped out the immobiliser, dme and ignition. The car starts first time perfectly, however once I’ve switched it off it won’t then restart until I disconnect and reconnect the battery. The start relay lockout seems to kick in after the first start. Has anybody else come across this problem before? Cheers.

POST 2Original post

Have you coded the new immobiliser to the car ?

No, so far it’s just been a plug it in and see. Will it need coding as I’ve used the dme and key from the donor as well. It’s starts first time perfectly, but won’t restart unless the battery is disconnected and reconnected.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
