How can I test my Porshe power window?
Another good test is to use a ‘virgin’ 12V source (another battery, a jump box, or connect directly to your battery). Connect the motor assembly, installed in the door, directly to this virgin source. If you can make it go up and down, then you have narrowed down the problem to the circuit.
Why is my power window not working on my Porshe?
You problem is almost certainly the regulator. This is the least expensive possibility for a Boxster power window repair. Window regulators are common points of failure on the Boxster. I think this can be attributed to the window rolling up and down sightly every time the doors are opened or closed.
What causes electrical problems in a Porsche 911?
The installation of a new stereo, power mirrors, a radar detector, or the worst of all, an alarm system, can seriously mess up your wiring configuration if not performed correctly. You’re left holding the mess, armed with only a few sporadic clues as to what is causing the problem.
How many points of failure does a Porsche 911 have?
If you carefully look at the electrical diagrams, you will notice that there are actually six points of failure for most electrical devices on the 911. For lack of a better example, we’ll use a blower motor to explain and demonstrate the electrical troubleshooting process.
What to do if power window on Porshe wont work?
Try using jumper wires with alligator clips to send power to the motor from the factory harness. That way you can be sure power is being provided. If you are using a test light, make sure that the voltage present is at least 11.5V with the engine off. Check the fuse, relay, switch, and any connectors for corrosion or burned spots.

How to troubleshoot a Porsche 911 blower motor problem?
In the case of the rear blower motor, the switch is connected to the red handles on the floor of the car. Check the switch with a continuity tester to make sure that it is working properly. Finally, if all the other tests fail to locate the problem, the wiring may be at fault.
