Steve - was removing those relays supposed to be fun?

Geez those NEC were almost impossible to kick off that PCB. I've never really had to remove many components during my past years as a janitor... mostly prefer trowing the whole thing (and pcb) in the garbage and starting from scratch lolll In the case of a Porsche immo... guess we can't escape this mess :/

Really worth changing the cap you think? Test meter set at 20k and its not rolling up much, dies at 15ohm then goes back to zero... fried?! Obviously going for NEW parts so I've already ordered both the Siemens and NEC sets of relays. And a cap, apparently. Anything else while at it?

Why all this??? Cuz Porsche kindly refused to reprog a second-hand immo my indy found for me. Said it will never work. Now looking for the same P/N eeproom kit around here. If we can't find that I don't think I'll bother you, or add to your already busy schedule I'm sure, I'll just get the real deal at P and call it a day instead (a $1,740 day!).

Let's try your tips first! Please save my car, and my wallet, Steve





^ Still good for a few extra thousand miles, right?
Sending a PM. I have a few ideas for you.
