Frunk light? Why?
2001 Boxster S, 3.2L 6speed manual.
Frunk light only lights if the trunk is also open... Why? Is there a way to fix this? |
Opening either front or rear turns the lights on in both, so your front latch microswitch is bad (or the wiring).
|
I don't get any grief from the alarm when the frunk is closed so, I assumed the micro switch was okay.
|
The car thinks the frunk always is closed, so no alarm.
|
I don't think so, if I leave the FRUNK ajar, the alarm complains.
|
What's the M code for your immobilizer (531, 534, or 535)?
|
Not sure, have to look in the manual. On a side note though, I popped the cover off over the lock mechanism and worked the lock a few times and the light came on. Is it safe to use say WD-40 in there to free it up?

Gave the white disc part of the switch a tiny spritz of WD-40 closed the frunk, opened it and the light came on instantly. Looks like that part was just gummed up over time.

Thanks. WD-40 worked to fix my frunk light. It also helped the hood to pop up higher.
