Even that may not be able to disable all the function checks. I'm almost positive that neither the Launch X431 or ThinkDiag products can do that.
718 body removed… Classic Porsche body “installed”.

I tried looking around the internet for a service out there that does programming like this but haven’t found anything. So I was hoping I could get in there and start poking around myself.

Tagging @718socal to see if he can help you. I think he can code remotely.

Haha! Soon… for now it’s under wraps. We will probably have something up on the YouTube channel in the next month or so.

Je venais vers votre site étant passionné et possesseur d'une Porsche.
Je viens d'acquérir une 718 avec Pack Design. Je viens d'acheter un Launch 431 919 Ebt X.
J'ai voulu tester cette valise sur ma voiture sans trop d'expérience et j'ai du faire une mauvais manipulation.
Je n'ai plus de GPS, plus de son, Plus de Dab +, plus de caméra de recul et aides de parquage sur le 'écran. Par contre j'ai le son de aide de parquage.
J'ai été dans PCm, et instrument. Mon idée était d'activer Android auto que mon véhicule est dépourvu. Le PCm c'est étient 3 fois et depuis tout en panne Quelqu'un peut m'aider le top est prenant la main sur mon Launch. Un tout grand merci pur votre prochaine aide.

Salut

I came to your site as a Porsche enthusiast and owner.
I just bought a 718 with the Design Pack. I just bought a Launch 431 919 EBT X.
I wanted to test this case on my car without much experience, and I must have made a mistake.
I no longer have GPS, no sound, no DAB+, no reversing camera, and no parking aids on the screen. However, I do have the parking aid sound.
I went into PCM and the instrument panel. My idea was to activate Android Auto, which my vehicle lacks. The PCM has stopped working three times, and since then, everything has broken down. Can someone help me? The best is taking control of my Launch. A big thank you for your next help.

He needs to post pics before I can respond lol. I guess it depends which options or modules he wants to remove. Without any specifics I can't comment.

🤣 haha I’ll snap some pics this week… but trust me, she ain’t pretty yet!

Basically I want to removed any warning messages about the lights since we’re no longer using the 718 headlights or tail lights. I’ll get a list of all the warning messages when I’m snapping pictures.

You can get rid of the messages in the cluster if you have the message ID. Some you can't clear like system check.
