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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

HI Chaps I have a PCM that is playing up. The right hand knob only toggles between two digits. It means the sat nav can only take me to towns that only have a and b in their name. I wonder if anyone out there has any ideas. Becker have told me that they can't look at it as Porsche will not allow them to. The only option is a £1000 exchange at a OPC. Many thanks Graham

POST 2Original post

Two things i'd suggest: - 1. If its a mechanical issue with the knob, IIRC, they are removable by pulling it out. I could be wrong but thats how the PCM2.1 works. Then try blowing a can of compressed air into the (variable resistor) component to clean it up. 2. If the issue is with the PCM software, try pulling the fuse to the thing and rest it. Hope that helps to get you started. Popolou
