Manually coding with the tester

NOTE: If the "old" control module can no longer be read out, the coding must be performed "manually" with the PIWIS tester P 9718 . This is to adapt the Gateway control module to the vehicle and equipment.

During coding, it is essential to guarantee the power supply for the Porsche System Tester. It is essential to connect a battery charger with a current rating of at least 40 A to the vehicle battery.

The Porsche System Tester instructions take precedence and in the event of a discrepancy these are the instructions that must be followed. Deviations may occur with later software versions.
