Removing the DME Control Unit



Removing And Installing DME Control Unit







NOTE:
- If the DME control unit is replaced, it must be programmed using the Porsche System Tester. Thus, the DME control module can be adapted to the vehicle, the national variant and the equipment. The DME control unit is located in the radiator tank near the right fender.
- If possible, before the DME control module is removed and replaced, a read-out of the vehicle data should be obtained from the Porsche System Tester.

- The Porsche System Tester instructions take precedence and in the event of a discrepancy these are the instructions that must be followed. Deviations may occur with later software versions.
