Yes....through the Main Menu...individ. Memory section. That will do it.

 

Thanks Raider , i guess i have to try to find the manual no idea how to that or take to the dealer

 

It is worth perusing the individual settings. You'll likely find all sorts of things you can set that you were unaware of. The guy who set up the complex user-unfriendly PCM was a sicko IMO.

 

Agreed...what the hell were they thinking when the made these menus??

Louie...just hit the Main Button, hit the set button on the right, takes you into that menu and there is the Indiv. Settings.

Your engine will have to be on, as the Indiv. section doesn't operate unless the engine is running. I learned about mine without the manual...manual is even harder to understand. Take some time to go through them all. Once you figure out what you want..you will never have to go in there again!!

 

Raider , thank you so much they wanted 200 dollars to do this .

 

What a rip...I'm a business owner and I know you have to make money to be in business...but you have to just do the right thing. If you do little things like that when you get the car..if you bought from the dealer....then the consumer will be back.

My local dealer wanted $ 300 + for a fluid change! Got it done for $ 99.00 on a Saturday and was there watching the guy do it. They let me look under my car while it was lifted...great service..little cost. Makes you want to go back because they are taking care of you and not their wallet.

Most stuff about your car can be answered here Louie...just search around and ask!!

 

I purchased the missing PCM manual for my 2006 CS (thicker than the owner's manual!) four weeks ago through Barrier Porsche in Seattle for $34, UPS shipping included.

But don't be too optimistic to read all about programmable options in the PCM manual, as it is repeatedly pointed out that programming is dependent on the options on the car, and quite a bit of how to program individual options is therefore not covered in detail in the booklet!

It would be great to have a permanent post on this forum which tabulates and names all options programmable, and how to.

I finally got around to implementing the hack. Thanks again, UTKINPOL!

Fairly easy to do, even for an idiot like me. The MA Carbon directions helped, as well as the first post here.

 

Tryed all that , checking and unchecking the drl makes no difference on my car , i beleive when i brought the car from the US to Canada the dealer did something to the car as its the law here to have drl now i dont have have that option to turn them on and off

 

You will have to have a sympathetic dealer or independent shop turn it off with the porsche PWIS tool. Then you can toggle the DRL headlights on or off with the PCM.

 

I just did mine just now (daylight, test it out tonight, though) and I wanted to point out that depending on the wire tap you buy you may have to break or drill out a little plastic tabs on one side of the tap. Otherwise you may crimp one of the wires and with fatigue may even cut into that wire.

The tap isnt meant to do side by side wires, they are meant to do an end of one wire tapped to another longer running wire.

I bought mine at radio shack $2.27 with tax, for 7 taps. So I did my hack for $0.32.

Did I hear someone say GUNDO! next?

Cheers

PS Props to Utkinpol!

 

Great work!
Was it easy to remove the light switch?

 

Very very easy

 

As easy as turning on a light switch. Follow this link and you'll see:
