An official CAA Japan notice concerns Passenger cars (Porsche Panamera 4S and others) - Repair. Defective electrical equipment (air conditioning blower control unit). ■Defective part (component name): Electrical equipment (air conditioning blower control unit). ■Details and cause of the structure, equipment or performance deemed noncompliant with standards: Due to an inappropriate housing design, some air conditioning blower control units have insufficient waterproofing. As a result, if moisture enters the unit, the internal electrical wiring may short-circuit and the circuit board may burn, potentially resulting in a fire in the worst case. Published 2019-06-14.
What to do now
(Recall)外-2854 ■Corrective measures: On all vehicles, inspect the part number of the air conditioning blower control unit and, if a part requiring replacement is installed, replace it with a remedial part. Since preparing the remedial parts will take time, install an additional waterproofing seal and a power cutoff relay on the unit as an interim measure.
