986 convertible control unit
 
Dear All,

Convertible top stopped working and after doing some diagnostics it seems the control unit (a.k.a. double relay) is faulty. A new one costs $220, i`d rather go with a used one but I didn`t find any. I`ll check out some dismantlers but first I thought I`d give it a shot here, perhaps someone has one and willing to sell it.

ask in the for sale section

I didn`t realize there is one :)

I got one at a very reasonable price from ‘itsnotanova’ but I don’t believe he is dismantling and selling Boxster parts like he used to but it’s worth sending him a PM and finding out.

Thanks, I`ll ask him.

Last I heard from him a couple months ago it sounded like he was out of the business. Might have some odds & ends laying around but didn't have anymore cars.

Please note that the relay for early cars ('97-'99) is different than '00-'04 so make sure you get the right one.

Thanks, I`m aware, a matching one is on the way from Texas from Woody :cheers:
