well, I will just share what I seem to have uncovered here. More than likely I think my car has partially "slipped" into transport mode. Interior lights are controlled by the power supply control module on terminal 30G. I suspect somehow my module detected a low power voltage when I disconnected and reconnected my battery several times during installation of a radio. This has basically put the electronic power supply control module in a "limp mode" or "transport mode" to prevent battery drainage. Non-essential power is cut off (interior lights) from terminal 30G.
That's my theory anyhow.
So the only plausible fix I can think of is to get the car out of transport mode and reprogram the ECU by running the "Sports Car Handover Routine" under "Special Functions" with a PIWIS...
which really sucks, because I am one way over 400 miles from the next Porsche dealer...I am not sure if a PST2 could do it? I dont think they are upward compatible and Durametric cannot program... Any thoughts anybody?
Sounds plausible so far?
