W423 - Flat Receptacle of XE Relay Socket (Workshop Service Action)

Vehicle Type:
911 Turbo (996)

Model Year:
M.Y. 2004 (4)

Concern:
Flat Receptacle of XE relay socket.

Information:
This is to inform you of a voluntary Workshop Service Action on certain 2004 model year 911 Turbo (996) vehicles. Wiring Harnesses with a faulty flat receptacle were installed in the relay socket of the "terminal XE" relay on the Porsche 911 Turbo for model Year 2004. This can lead to a loose contact which can cause malfunctions in fog lights, seat heating and cigarette lighters.

Therefore, we ask that the flat receptacle on the affected vehicles listed below be replaced during the Porsche Owner's next visit to your workshop.

Affected Vehicles:
A total of 157 U.S. and 7 Canadian vehicles fall within the scope of this Service Action.

Very Important!
Not every vehicle in the below listed range may be affected. Use the ranges below as a general guideline. Refer to Attachment "A" to determine if a particular vehicle is eligible for this service action. Alternatively, the VIN can be checked in the Porsche e-DCS/WWS for confirmation of an open service action.
