993 imobiliser

[Murray993]

My car is currently having some paintwork done at a garage 200 miles from me. Now the chap has rung up saying he can't start the car as he cant engage the imobilser. I would like to purchase a second imobiliser key and send it down to him. I know you can order them from Porsche but have you ay idea what reference I would need to give them so I can order the key?

Is it the rectangular slot under key barrel that you insert fob into?

That's what I have on my 928 (1991) and am trying to remember if it's PA100 or PA1000 system.

At any rate I got a spare immobiliser key from OPC who just put the fob in a reader, then sent the 4 digit code to Hamilton & Palmer. If you went direct to H&P they would need you to send them your immobiliser fob to read out the code. It was about £35.

how does he know?
DMS relay?
broken key?

Thanks. Well he says he can't start the car. I'm going to try and get my brother in law to go and try and start it first.

Try these guys - they put the alarms in the 993s. Very helpful indeed
