1987 Porsche 911 why are my light flickering Porschubishi 4g63

While driving my 1987 Porsche 911 powered by a Mitsubishi 4g63 one night my headlights were flickering real bad. I also noticed that I was putting out 15.2 volts hmmm that’s a lot. So fast forward 8 months later I decided to get my Mitsubishi alternator that is in my Porsche 911 tested lol yup you read right. I took it to one place it tested fine, I decided to get a second opinion and it also tested fine. I know a failing voltage regulator will do this. So I decided to buy a new one, well it worked

Good to see the stuff under the trunk, and all the gauges.

Thanks, I realized I really never did a video of everything on the Porschubishi

You got me inspired I want a 911 and 997 4g can’t wait

[@RustyRatchetGarage]

Glad I was able to inspire you, 996 is a really good car also I had 2 of them. If you do get one I would be glad to help

I worked on a Porsche that had flashing lights like that. It was a corroded fuse, those pointed fuses get corrosion on the ends and it causes a lot of funny problems. Just use some fine sandpaper and do the ends of every fuse also clean the fuse holder terminals, it will fix a lot of issues.

Yes they do, I used a fine wire brush on mine dipping it in vinegar, worked great

[@christianperspective9527]

Those codes are cam and crank sensor , some builds will have those codes when the engine is not running

[@RustyRatchetGarage]

Hmmmm interesting, for years I never had them now can’t get rid of them. Does not effect any performance at all

@@RustyRatchetGarage Hmm then maybe you shouldn't have them. I would look at the wiring diagram and see what they share. A bad connection maybe.
