Did you remove the dash to get ot these parts?
If not , how did you gain access

Thank you.

If your Boxster is a (model year) 2000 it should have the 7.2 DME.
Looking in the Bentley service manual under the 7.2 DME DTC codes.
P1502 is for (fault type)= Fuel pump relay output stage. (explanation)=short to B+/above upper limit/rich mixture threshold.
I would start by changing the fuel pump relay.
They are around $10.00 I think.
Do that see if it changes anything.

The issue your chasing is a throttle jacking spring issue??? (or other issue) but that is pre-2000 year models with the 5.2 DME. and non E-gas throttle. If you reference the Bentley service manual you will see P1502 under the 5.2 DME is for a jacking spring issue.
So Porsche used the same P-codes to reference different problems dependent on which DME or ECU the code is tied too.
Hope the Bentley manual is correct and that this helps.
