Activation status memory

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 2005 Porsche 911, 2004 Porsche 911, 2003 Porsche 911, 2002 Porsche 911, and 2001 Porsche 911. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The alarm-triggering components that are in the non-active state during alarm system activation and that are therefore blocked for alarm triggering are stored in the activation status memory. The activation type is also saved. If the vehicle is secured, e.g. by remote control, and the oddments tray is open, this is indicated by a brief horn signal from the alarm system control module. This status is stored in the activation status memory under Oddments tray activation type: - by remote control-. This function can be used in troubleshooting, in so far as a faulty micro switch or faulty wire can cause the horn signal. Reading out the activation status memory can help to track down the faulty alarm-triggering component, e.g. front lid, rear lid, oddments tray, etc.
