Fodoposto,

If 1 of the 2 doors are working then it's got to be the door's actuator, not your key fob.

Can you open both door locks from the inside cabin switch?

roland3337,

The reason why your Porsche Boxster may not even crank could be a blown fuse which interacts with the Immobilizer.

Otherwise small debris like receipts, loose coins, and others could potentially clog the drain.
