Removing And Installing Display And Operator Control Unit (PCM 2)

Removing display and operator control unit (PCM 2)

INFORMATION:
- If the PCM is replaced by a new or a different PCM, read out the data with the Porsche System Tester before removal.
- The PCM has an optical waveguide (LWL).

Switch ignition off and remove ignition key.







1. Unclip switch cover from below using a plastic spatula and disconnect electrical plug connections.







2. Insert a hexagon-socket wrench sideways into the screw connection of the PCM detent hooks.
3. Close the detents (2 each side) with the hexagon-socket wrench -A- and carefully pull out the PCM.
4. For re-installation, open the detents with the hexagon-socket wrench -B-.

INFORMATION:
- The number of plug connections will vary, depending on the I No. (CD changer, Bose, amplifier).
- The variant without additional audio components (external Most control units) has a jumper (output to input) connected to the optical waveguide plug.







5. Unlock and pull off antenna plugs -A, E, F-.
6. Unlock and disconnect the electrical plug connections in the order -C, B, D-.

Installing display and operator control unit (PCM 2)

INFORMATION:
- If a new PCM is being installed, the navigation module must be removed from the old PCM and installed in the new PCM.
- If the old PCM is being re-installed, then begin at Step 6.







1. Before the new PCM is installed, unlock and disconnect the protective plug -A- for the optical waveguide.
2. Unclip the cover on the new and old PCM.







3. With the PCM removed, carefully lever out the navigation module using a screwdriver.







4. Insert the navigation module into the PCM to be installed.







5. Position the cover and press into place.







6. Push on the electrical plug connections for the display and operator control unit in the sequence -D, B, A- and the antenna plugs -A, E and F- until they are felt to engage.







7. Check that the locking tabs on the PCM are out -arrow- , opening the lock with a hexagon-socket wrench if necessary.

INFORMATION: Before sliding the PCM into the installation slot, make sure that the electrical leads are not trapped by the PCM or damaged.

8. Push the navigation unit into the installation slot until the locks engage on the PCM housing.







9. Connect the electrical plug connections to the switch cover.
10. Position switch cover and press in until it is felt to engage.

INFORMATION: After installation of a new display and operator control unit, the system must be activated with the Porsche System Tester.

11. Connect and switch on the Porsche System Tester 2.

Teaching display and operator control unit (PCM 2)

INFORMATION:
- If a new PCM is to be installed in a vehicle, the PCM2/CDR23 code specified in IPAS must be used.
- You can get the codes from IPAS or from your importer by specifying the vehicle identification number.
- During coding, the power supply for the Porsche System Tester should be guaranteed. Connect a battery charging device to the vehicle battery.
- Symbol for the TAB key = ->|
- The Porsche System Tester instructions take precedence and in the event of a discrepancy these are the instructions that must be followed. A discrepancy may arise with later software versions (from 20.0).
- The procedure described here has been structured generally; different text or additions may appear in the Porsche System Tester.
