Top 20 1990 Porsche 911 Carrera Questions & Answers

I suggest a locksmith. They can make a key to unlock it for you.

run the fault codes first as there are a number of reasons for no spark --the last being the coil. There is an ignition module ---position sensors --timing belt --shorts in the cap --bad coil lead to the distributor . The ignition module may be only have 7.5 volts to it from the coil in which case you may have burnt it out with the 12 volt application and you will not get any spark unless the coil is in the circuit as it is a transformer that generates the high voltage necessary for a spark at the plugs.

Check connections to ECU under pax seat I believe, possibly a failed ECU, make sure you buy a new coil as well if replacing ECU.

it is called your pcv

if the key will not TURN the ignition try spraying alittle wd40 into it ,just a quick shot then run the key in and out a few times .if it turns but won'tstart check your battery connections ,may need cleaning and tightening. if lubing ignition does not work you may need a newly cut key a twenty year old key may be worn out.see a locksmith or dealer

check the gear oil in the transmission Porsche is notorious for trans problems, and it wouldn't surprise me if it was leaking. too low a fluid and it will not go into any gear but the one that was last selected.

hello there
most of the cabriolet in 1990 are electrical.
If you like to open manualy it is posible only if you disconnect the arms which are attached to the motors on each side .The arms and motors are located behind the side panels.Disconnect only the connection to the arms not the arms from the motors,there is an allen head bolt to be removed.Aftrer this you will still need to operate electricaly the two (on the top of the windshield ) el.motors(latches).
If you use the switch to detach the top from the windshield then you can finish the openning by hands(manualy) this is the only way it would work for you.

Let me know if you need more help

With a rarchet, extension and socket remove the bolts holding the latch to the core support and the hood will open. The cable usually just fell off. reattach or replace as needed.

YOU TWO WINDOWS NOT WORKING OR ONE OF POWER WINDOW NOT WORKING. IF YOU HAVE TWO WINDOWS NOT WORKING YOU SHOULD CHECK THE HUGE BOX. IF ONE WINDOW NOT WORKING YOU SHOULD FULL OUT WORKING WINDOW SWITCH AND REPLACE WITH NOT WORKING SWITCH. IF IT DOES NOT WORKING YOU HAVE POWER WINDOW MOTOR.

that oil leak or another is dripping on to the exhaust manifold or exhaust pipe ,that is where it is coming from,,

I DON'T THINK THEY HAVE MANUALLY DO THAT. YOU MAY CHANGE SWITCH TO OTHER WORKING SWITCH. THAN IT DOES NOT WORKING YOU MAY HAVE PROBLEM WITH MOTOR. I HAVE 1990 C4 SAME PROBLEM. BUT I CHANGED MOTOR IT WORK.

Replace the top motors or check cables from motors to top. There are 2 motors one for each side of the top.
