Immobilizer/ECU
I have a 2001 Boxster S that had water
build up under the drivers seat as a result of
heavy rain. Initially, the alarm went off on it's own
which confused me but after reading many posts
on here, I realized that was on of the symptoms of
a water damaged Immobilizer.
After removing the unit and cleaning it I was able
start the car. As of today, the windows and power locks
are not working.
I heard that you can't purchase a used Immobilizer
because once it's programmed with another vehicle
it can't be reprogrammed. ..is this true.
Are my only options at this point to purchase a new
unit and have it reprogrammed at a Porsche delearship?
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
