I plan on using my Power Probe to simplify testing. The ground of the Power Probe will connect directly to the battery negative. That way I can just test for voltage, with the key on, at the proper points to see if it's flowing per the diagrams. IE- power to the switch itself and when toggled up/down per the instructions.
Since this is a common problem should I just cut my time and replace both passenger door switches for about $100. I assume the non-Porsche/OEM switches for $17 are not worth it. Probably China or other cheapo quality?
