1998 porsche boxster, when the roof is up there is a red light on indicating it's not closed when it is. Then the windows randomly go down by themselves. What is the problem?

I had the same issue, and I found out there is a switch under the center console that is depressed when the hand brake is engaged. sometimes this swith gets stuck. u can unscrew a portion of the center console from the ashtray i believe and unjam the switch. i hope it helps

The limit switches for the convertible top are out of adjustment.

That problem appears to be in the top release. this is the thing at the top of the windshield that you release. Press the button inside of it to see if that may be the problem. it is the only thing that wouldn't let your windows go all the way up. The switch inside may have gone bad.

This is a common problem. Your alarm was on when the battery went dead. When the alarm activated, the hood/bonnet opening lever locks to prevent thieves from opening the hood in case the top is down. Some boxsters have a jumper post the pulls out near the fuse box. However, I do not think the 1997-1999s have this post.

Buy a male-to-male cigarette lighter adapter at the auto store. Connect between your car's cigarette lighter socket and the other car's cigarette lighter socket. Do not try to start the ignition or the any other electronics. You should not even need the key in the ignition. You should be able to pop the door locks with the remote and open the bonnet.
