'00 Boxster wont start

To properly charge a car battery, one must drive that car on the freeway for quite some time... well over a couple of hours.

If your battery is just drained because of lack of use, then you need to buy a trickle charger.

However, if it won't hold a charge, it's time for a replacement.

Do a thread search here for battery replacement comments... Porsche batteries are rather expensive and not that high-quality. The owner of the site swears by a brand sold at Sam's or Costco, believe it or not.

Row E slot 1 FUSE! I was reading through the list of fuses and this on covers the Security, as well as the RADIO! I must have blown the fuse when I was tapping into the power. I replaced the 7.5a fuse and the car fired right up.

Thanks for all the help. I am going to put the radio back in my car now......
such a dumbass, one fuse kept me from driving in yesterdays 60 deg weather.
