I use car play on it now, but do wish the traffic worked on the built in nav as a backup.
Leading evidence: 'Use car play' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, the most frequently mentioned possible cause is 'nhtsa warning' (1 discussions; 0 report identifying it and 1 suggest it). The most frequently discussed action is 'Replace settings' (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.

Suspected cause
It was the NHTSA warning that would appear when the car was moving and you tried to change settings.

I�m not sure whether Porsche were able to rectify those cars and reset the odometer to the correct mileage or not but that�s a pretty big issue!

Interesting, I too have the PCCM+ but never had any issues with it -- once I switched to using a genuine Apple USB cable that is!
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.

Its built on android and I tried to turn on wifi but didn't work.
I recently ordered and was set to have my dealer install a PCCM+ in my 2001 C4 - BUT I got a call this morning from the Parts Dept that Porsche has sent out a recall notice out for this part # so I�m not getting the radio after all:
99664259100
.
(See product here:
https://shop.porscheusa.com/porscheo...664259100.html
),
They are refunding my money of course but now I�m looking for something else to put in its place: any suggestions are welcome (and yes, I know I just combined two topics: recall and suggestion request!).
That’s pretty bad if a software update doesn’t fix it. I wonder which bugs they’re concerned with. Mine actually fixed itself after 5 days, lol. (CarPlay and Sirius issues)
Honestly I wouldn't put anything else in my car besides the PCCM+. If I had to I would get a bluetooth module for the factory Becker radio. I'm interested to learn why it was recalled though. My unit has some bugs but nothing that's made me pull my hair out.
Interesting, I too have the PCCM+ but never had any issues with it -- once I switched to using a genuine Apple USB cable that is! I bought my unit from Suncoast Porsche but haven't heard anything about a recall. Would be good to know if it's a safety issue.
Hi all, I managed to get in touch with a dealer who said they had been informed that Porsche is updating some software in the units due to a potential legal issue. PCNA has been told that the units should hopefully be available again in mid to late October. Hope this helps!
Further to my initial post, I have now bought the dual din PCCM+ from my dealer - whatever issues prevented them from selling me one a few months ago have since been resolved and once my �01 C4 comes back from Elephant Racing (its getting the safari treatment - suspension, lights, bars�) I�m going to have it installed - has anyone else learned anymore about the PCCM+ issue as I still can�t get a full answer as to what was up other than it was software related.
Not sure if you�re still interested but the issue according to my dealer in Australia was that when the PCCM+ was installed in some 996 and 986s, it would result in the odometer being reset to 0km / 0miles. Lol.
I�m not sure whether Porsche were able to rectify those cars and reset the odometer to the correct mileage or not but that�s a pretty big issue!
Mine randomly resets the trip odometer to zero on a pretty regular basis. I have not heard of that happening to anybody's primary odometer...but would probably add value to my car to go from 120,000+ miles to TMU...
Haha!
Mine resets my trip odometer frequently but not the primary! I had heard that this could be corrected at a porsche dealership but that it was significantly more expensive if you did not have them install the unit there originally. Not sure if that is true or not.
It was the NHTSA warning that would appear when the car was moving and you tried to change settings. Users figured out how to disable it in the secret menu. After the firmware update, you can't disable it anymore.
I have a PCCM that just arrived from a dealer and then after installing it can't do anything with it as if you breathe on the radio it shuts off likes its moving with the nanny screen. It has latest firmware so can't shut off warning. I really like the unit but can't even enter an address.

If the gps antenna is bad it can cause this. Mine would pop up the warning randomly when stopped and it turns out the unit was not getting any signal when I went to use the SD card maps. Carplay maps worked fine.
The onboard maps with nav work fine. I looked at the amount of satellites and had 10 or so green. Also checked in the hidden menu for the # of satellites and they were showing there also. It seems as soon as the unit shakes just a little it pops up the message. Its a B1 unit with latest firmware so can't turn off NHTSA in hidden menu.
Im working fine. You can't bench test it. When its mounted all works great and I can change the settings. If the car is moving though down the road settings is unavilable as is designed. I use car play on it now, but do wish the traffic worked on the built in nav as a backup. Its only a europe thing. Its built on android and I tried to turn on wifi but didn't work. Ill have to dig around again on what other potential android behind the scene stuff might work
