Or not. I replaced the connector and still have the problem so it must be internal to the latch. I am weighing my options... don't feel like spending $600 CDN for the latch that my Boxster with the M535 alarm option needs. I am tempted to take mine apart to check for a bad solder joint or other simple fix.
I am wondering what would happen if I installed a standard latch (like from a VW, available for $60 CDN), that should at least fix my window problem, but what would it do to the alarm?
