8007 Pcm2 - MMI: Diagnosis/troubleshooting

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2004 Porsche Boxster, 2003 Porsche Boxster, 2002 Porsche Boxster, 2001 Porsche Boxster, and 2000 Porsche Boxster. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
DIAGNOSIS/TROUBLESHOOTING - 8007 PCM2 - MMI

Work instruction Display OK If not OK
1 Read out PCM2 fault memory
  • Connect the Porsche System Tester II 9588 to the diagnostic socket, start it and switch on the ignition
  • Select Boxster (986) in the Vehicle type menu and confirm with the ">>" key
  • Select PCM in the Control units menu and confirm with the ">>" key
  • Select PCM2 MMI in the Boxster (986) PCM2 function selection and confirm with the ">>" key
  • Select Fault memory in the PCM2 MMI function selection and confirm with the ">>" key
  • Read out fault memory
  • Erase fault memory
  • Remove ignition key and switch on ignition again
  • Read out fault memory
  • Extract ambient data, press the ">>" key
The fault is remedied
-> End
Fault code is still displayed
Step 2
2 Check MOST components
  • Connect the Porsche System Tester II 9588 to the diagnostic socket, start it and switch on the ignition
  • Select Boxster (986) in the Vehicle type menu and confirm with the ">>" key
  • Select PCM in the Control units menu and confirm with the ">>" key
  • Select MOST component check in the Boxster (986) PCM2 function selection menu and confirm with the ">>" key
  • Wait for the end of the automatic check
  • The duration of the check depends on the number of existing MOST control modules
The result of the test indicates if a fault was diagnosed in the system, and if so, where it is located.
  • Gateway > amplifier optically OK electrically OK
  • Amplifier > CD changer optically OK electrically OK
  • CD changer > telephone/optically OK electrically OK
  • Telephone > MMI optically OK electrically OK
  • MMI > navigation electrically OK
  • Navigation > VOCS electrically OK
  • VOCS > navigation electrically OK
An optical fault is displayed 3
An electrical fault is displayed 4
3 Optical fault Replace the relevant optical waveguide between the listed faulty components with the optical waveguide test line 9712 that is provided as a special tool. Check MOST components again Replace the faulty optical waveguide with the relevant spare part
-> End
Replace the relevant recipient MOST control module
Step 2
4 Check diagnosis distribution line for open circuit Check diagnosis distribution line between the listed faulty components for an open circuit
  • Switch ignition off
  • Disconnect the plug connections of the existing MOST control modules
  • Measure the resistance of the diagnosis distribution line between the relevant plug connections
< 0.5
Step 5
Remove open circuit in diagnosis distribution line
-> End
5 Check diagnosis distribution line for short circuit to ground Check diagnosis distribution line between the listed faulty components for short circuit to ground
  • Switch ignition off
  • Disconnect the plug connections of the existing MOST control modules
  • Measure the resistance of the diagnosis distribution line to ground
Step 6 Remove short circuit to ground in diagnosis distribution line
-> End
6 Check diagnosis distribution line for short circuit to B+ Check diagnosis distribution line between the listed faulty components for short circuit to B+
  • Switch ignition off
  • Disconnect the plug connections of the existing MOST control modules
  • Measure the voltage of the diagnosis distribution line to ground
  • Switch ignition on
0 V
Step 7
Remove short circuit to B+ in diagnosis distribution line
-> End
7 Replace PCM2 -> End -
