My Boxster runs hot in the recent heatwave in my area. Search on google brings up some sort of a "hack" by using jumper wires to force the fans to turn on before things start to get too hot.
Unfortunately it links to a board that no longer exists (ppbb). Here is what the poster said:
That is my DIY for the radiator fan on PPBB (new link -
Porsche Pete's Boxster Board :: Archives of PPBB).
With this hack, the fan will go on automatically; no need to fuss with a switch. The procedure is identical for the 996. You remove the relay, put in a jumper wire, reinstall the relay.
Does anyone have this procedure from now defunct board documented?
Much appreciated!
