New Microswitch For Front Lid Lock

Vehicle Type:

Boxster

Model Year:

As of 1997 (V)

Concern:

The microswitch located on the front trunk latch sticks intermittently.

Information:

In certain climatic conditions (cold or wet), the microswitch located on the bottom part of the front lid latch may stick. This could cause the

following conditions:

^ The light will not illuminate when the trunk is opened.

^ The light will not go out when the trunk is closed. This could lead to dead batteries.

^ The alarm horn will sound when locking the vehicle.

The microswitch has been installed in vehicles produced from the middle of February 2000, and can be identified by a yellow or blue paint dot on

the microswitch.

In case of complaints, the new version microswitch can be installed on earlier vehicles.
