Coding the gateway control unit

NOTE: If the gateway control module is replaced, the gateway control module must be coded using the PIWIS tester P 9718 . This is to adapt the Gateway control module to the vehicle and equipment.

If possible, before the gateway control module is removed and replaced, a read-out of the vehicle data should be obtained from the Porsche System Tester.

During coding, it is essential to guarantee the power supply for the Porsche System Tester. It is essential to connect a battery charger with a current rating of at least 40 A to the vehicle battery.

The Porsche System Tester instructions take precedence and in the event of a discrepancy these are the instructions that must be followed. Deviations may occur with later software versions.
