I am starting this post in case anyone ever does a search for this issue. Yesterday I took the Boxster out after washing it and a half mile down the road the airbag light came on. Put the car in the garage and figured I need a tool to diagnosis the issue and reset the light - a Durametic was the direction I was headed in.
This afternoon I went out and the Boxster wouldn't start. Obviously, it has something to do with the airbag light. Back to the internet..... after another hour I came across a possible issue; Fuse Row E, Number 1.... also referred to as Terminal 86s. According to the paperwork, this fuse controls, "Instrument cluster, radio, central locking/alarm system, roll-over-sensor control unit (911 Cabrio), daytime running light (Canada).
I checked the fuse (7.5) and found that it was in fact blown. I replaced the fuse and the Boxster started! And, the airbag light was not longer illuminated!
Life is once again as it should be!!
