Code Read with Durametric - 986 Forum - The Community for Porsche Boxster & Cayman Owners

Camshaft deviation looks good but the value of cam 2, 6.3 is out of spec, should be +- 4. Check it again after the car is fully warmed, meaning after being driven for more than 1/2 hour and the radiators have cycled a couple of times. Cam 2 on mine varies between 5.3 and 6.X depending on temp. I'm not too worried about it being slightly out of spec as the car runs fine.

Found the cause for the "Cruise Control readiness light exceeds limit value" error code. The bulb for the CC light in the dash was missing. Taking from another and putting it in not only lit up the light but also cleared the fault.

There are some others that are empty. Is that the how it's supposed to be. I don;t have some options like PSM but about 6-7 are empty. Wondering what I'm missing out on!

Mine had some empty slots too. My car only has something called the Sport Package, pretty base car. I got a bunch of black/tan bulbs and filled them up to see if I was missing anything too. I had just got the car and was learning a the time. The odometer light was out and the previous owner gave me a discount for that. I think I took back out the ones that didn't light up when the key is first turned. I'll be getting the Durametric at some point too, based on what I read it sounds like I might get codes for each bold I took out and put back in.

Even though i have some empty slots the only code i got related to the dash instruments was the CC light. Mine is an S and the window sticker says 'Sport package'. I tried to get a picture of the dash with the descriptions of the lights from a manual but, unfortunately i dont have one and the only ones i can find online is not matching my car layout. Ordered one from Sunset.
