These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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

My 996 developed a problem. Nothing happens when turning ignition key, no lights on dash. Replaced ignition lock electrical part. Battery OK. Radio, interior lights, hazards works, immobilizer blinks. Master fuses / relays to check. Fuses on foot well compartment are OK. All ideas welcome ...

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Doesn't it just block starting without pressing clutch pedal? There's no dash lights or anything ...

POST 4Original post

I was replacing the amp today on my 99 Carrera and as I removed the battery I found a lot white discharge and rust in the battery tray. I followed the positive terminal to the wall and found a lot of trash as well as the positive terminal the same whitish discharge on the end of the terminal .Once I cleaned it the lights in the dashboard came on brighter. I would check the terminal. Hope this helps. Tpstatic

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Mine is completely clean but will check the terminals tomorrow. Thanks for the tip ...

POST 6Original post

Common issue. Try pulling the key out completely, then shake wheel left-right several times then reinsert and try again. I find that parking with side pressure on the steering wheel lock or tires will exacerbate the problem, so I just do the “shake” routine. Johan

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Tried, no effect. Mine has newer version steering lock assembly ...
