Great stuff. I’m having trouble with the floppy driver side strut on the spoiler. It’s causing an error code. I was having trouble finding a video that shows how to remove the bumper on a 981, so this video really helps

Hi Jeff, have you fitted an after market reversing camera? I am looking to tap into the reversing light + and - but which wires are they?

I have fitted a camera years ago. Can't remember off the top of my head which wires, but below is a link to download the workshop manual. All the wiring diagrams are at the end. www.planet-9.com/threads/981-boxster-workshop-manual.246427/

Hey Jeff, what if the spoiler is stuck in the retracted position and the spoiler button on the console isn’t doing anything? Will it do damage if I somehow get my fingers in there and lift the spoiler up?

You won't be able to pull it up due to the gearing mechanism. You can get emergency access to the system from the underneath by removing the heat shield (not sure if the exhaust needs removal). Then you can pull the drive shafts off the motor and twist by hand to raise. Or you might be able to apply power via a battery and move it.

The plug to apply power to the motor is assessible from underneath, but be careful to not apply power to the hall sensors, only the motor. The motor wires are pins 1 and 2 on the plug. Wire colours are red/black and red/brown. Unfortunately the hall sensor wire (pin 3) is also red/brown, but this one is much thinner. So the motor power wires are the thicker ones. One polarity will raise, the other lower.

Hi Jeff, i'm looking to replace the rear bumper exhaust trim surround but really struggling to work out the best way to get it off. Do i need to drop out the whole rear bumper apron and then replace once the unit is off? cheers and thanks for the great vids

I'm not sure how large the trim piece is. You may be able to get away with it by rotating the exhaust tip down, removing the bumper bracket near the tip and doing it that way. If not then removing the bumper might be required. Removing the bumper is pretty easy so don't let it put you off.

Hi Jeff another great in-depth video, do you have any content showing the removal of the plastic trim enabling access to the seat belt, as i believe someone has twisted the drivers belt prior to my ownership. I have looked through your past videos but can't find anything relating to the trim removal, can you help?

Hello! Do you know maybe if the spoiler drive from 718 fits into 981? Thanks!

they are different part numbers so I suspect not.

@@jeffrichardsoncardiy okay, but maybe Spoiler from Boxster 981 fits Cayman 981 and opposite? It is very hard to find exact one nowadays 🙈

@jeffrichardson7677 my boxster got rear ended and I'm doing the repairs myself. The spoiler drive was damaged and I bought a used cayman drive. A entire new assembly. 3 revisions newer. Will it have to be coded to my car? Because now my left tail light will not work when running (works when locking), rear lid will not pop I'm not getting anything from the spoiler and my convertable top is messing up. Today now my front left drl is out and I know they work. Wondering if I need the dealer to code it for me?
