Starting diagnosis

  1. Connect the Porsche System Tester 2 to the diagnostic socket (data link connector) in the vehicle
  2. Switch on the Porsche System Tester 2 (it will be ready for operation in approx. 60 seconds).
  3. Switch on the ignition.
  4. Select the vehicle type and initiate diagnosis with key 2.14.

    The Porsche System Tester 2 starts to search for control modules and then lists all control modules it finds. Control modules that are not installed (e.g. Tiptronic control module on vehicles with manual transmission) are displayed in grey.

NOTE: If no control modules are detected, check whether the ignition is on or whether terminal 15 is present on the diagnostic socket.
If faults are stored in a control module, this is identified with the # symbol as before.
