Could somebody identify this connector, please? Is underneath of the driver`s rear tire side(left side). The cable is tie together with the ABS cable. I have a ABS and PSM light on, could be this cable the problem? Also I have the stop lights on too. Thanks in advance Also it has these numbers on it: r n o then 99970227440 then >EPDM<

I think that plugs into the PSM ABS module.

I think it's the connector for the self-leveling sensor for Litronic optioned Boxsters. Mechanical link attaches to LR control arm.

Looks like someone removed the sensor & Litronics.

I think that it is because I have the PSM ABS lights on the dash board. Now the question is where is connected, because we are looking and we can no find the place or maybe we are missing the module, if so where we need to put the module to do the conection?
Thanks

I think I've seen threads that those lights on can be triggered by a bad brake light switch. Have you looked at that possibility yet?

No yet, but the problem is that I have the connector with not place to connect it. Also the ABS PSM is light it up on the dash, so I need info about where to connect it or if I am missing the module where is the place to install it.
Thanks

it bolts to the top of the bearing carrier, inside, looking down on the hub. It sees the blocks or pattern of the hub as it spins.

The speed sensor is already there...so it's got to be the litronic sensor-no?

You could call a dealer and give them that number and see what it's called- I'm tell'in ya it's for litronics...The ABS/PSM lights must be ANOTHER problem. Start with fuses, right...?

I think it is for the Litronic level sensor.
It's the only connector I could find with a boot like that. Info is very hard to come by.
