The Porsche Boxster headlight switch has small contacts that complete the circuit when the switch is turned to the on position. The contacts do produce carbon deposits over time that causes them to fail. If you can jiggle the Porsche Boxster headlamp switch and the lights go on and off, than the headlight switch does need to be replaced. We carry the OEM and Aftermarket Porsche Boxster headlamp switches that meet all OE manufacturer requirements for fit, quality and durability.
If your Porsche Boxster fails to start, and the starter is working properly, the next thing to check is the ignition switch. Typically if you have to play with the key to get the Porsche Boxster starter to crank, the switch is failing. We recommend replacing the Porsche Boxster starter switch as soon as you notice the switch beginning to fail. This will keep you from getting stranded. The Porsche Boxster neutral safety switch on vehicles with automatic transmissions can also fail causing the car not to start.
If the Porsche Boxster power window fails to go up or down, you need to determine if the switch is bad, the window motor or the fuse or circuit breaker has failed. The Porsche Boxster window switch is the cause of a power window not operating 80% of the time. We carry the Factory window switches including the master window switch assembly located in the center console or on the drivers door.
