Thanks, Gilles. I have my brothers to thank for that. I was always hanging around the garage and they'd rope me into giving them a hand.

I had the same thing happen with my 986 soon after I got it. I hooked up my battery charger, which has a repair mode, but no dice. So I bought a new AC Delco, the largest one that would fit.

The new light switch is installed and the lights now work perfectly. However, the vent is not back in the dash, because all the speed nuts were sprung (which is why one fell out onto the floor mat)....

Doing my own repairs and maintenance is the only way I can justify driving a Porsche. I refuse to pay the Porsche dealership's stratospheric rates on general principle. On the other hand, when I'm...
