General instructions/safety instructions
The following points must be observed during vehicle diagnosis:
- After the battery is connected, volatile memories must be reprogrammed. In the case of radio coding and tuning, the customer must be informed of decoding and the deleted tuner memory.
- After connecting the battery, the instructions in the assembly --> 9; Rep. Gr. - ; Work instructions after disconnecting the battery are to be observed.
- Deactivate the 'automatic traffic announcement' before beginning the diagnosis on the PCM2. If this is not done, the system will crash.
- When working on the optical waveguide, the instructions in assembly --> 9; Rep. Gr. 9768; Optical waveguide - MOST bus are to be observed.
- After troubleshooting or repairs, erase the fault memory with the Porsche System Tester II No. 9588 and carry out a test drive.
- After the test drive, read out the fault memory with the Porsche System Tester II No. 9588 again.

DANGER:
Danger of injury through triggering of driver's airbag;.
- Never hang the Porsche System Tester II No. 9588 over the steering wheel.

CAUTION:
Danger of damage due to improper handling of the battery and the control unit connectors.
- Never disconnect battery with engine running.
- Never start engine without securely connected battery.
- Never pull off or push on plug connections for the control modules or other electronic components when the ignition is switched on


General information on the fault memory

Fault code setting conditions
Fault codes can be set in several circumstances, e.g.:
- battery disconnected
- plug connections disconnected
- power failure

In these circumstances, no fault is present in the system and the fault memory must be erased.

Fault memory Info key [F8]
In order to be able to assess the fault exactly, the fault memory Info key [F8] must be pressed. This information should be saved using the Save key [F4] and printed out. If a fault code is stored with "not present" status and no other problems are present, then the fault memory must be erased.









Display '*' in the menu 'Control modules' and menu 'PCM2/ CDR23 MOST-components check'.

Varying required/actual installed components list

When the 'automatic control module search' is complete, the following display '*' appears in front of the control module description 'PCM2 or CDP23' in the menu 'Control modules', as well as in the 'PCM2 MMI function selection menu' in front of the entry 'MOST required installed components list' if a difference in the required and actual installed components list is established by the Porsche System Tester II No.9588 and there is no fault code in one of the fault memories of the MOST control modules.

If there is a fault code in one of the MOST control modules, the display '*' is only shown in the 'PCM2 MMI function selection menu'.

If there is a display in the menu Control module, an existing fault code has priority and a '#' is set.

Control module replacement - PCM2
The PCM2 is provided in 'active production mode' in new vehicles and as a spare part. Each time the vehicle is started, the model range code that is stored is compared with the code in the instrument cluster. If no match is found, the device switches off after 30 seconds and the 'PROTECTED' message appears in the display. The device is not operational.

If a match is found, the device is operational. No further checks are made while the device is connected to the vehicle electrical system.
