Guided fault findingA test plan for a fault: the checks, the values to read and the procedures to runFull plans with a car licence or workshop
ProgrammingManual programming of one control unit, and automatic programming to the car's target softwareProgramming pass or workshop

Every scan, coding write and programming job is kept per VIN in your account history, in the app and in the web panel.

02 · Fault memory

Fault codes on all 76 control units

One scan reaches every control unit on the 911 and returns each stored and active fault with its text, not just a raw code. Clear faults per control unit or for the whole car, and see what changed since the last scan of the same car. This part is free on every account, with no card and no expiry, so you can confirm that STEUER14 talks to your 911 before you pay for anything. See Fault memory in the manual.

03 · Live values & maintenance

Live values, actuator tests and maintenance

With a car licence or the workshop plan, every control unit's live values open, with recording and CSV export (manual). Actuator tests drive components so you can check them; the ones that need no security unlock are free (manual).

The Maintenance & Repairs tab runs the factory tester's guided procedures step by step, with preconditions to confirm and the result of every request (manual). On the 992 the list includes, for example, the service interval reset in the instrument cluster, brake service bleeding, steering-angle sensor calibration, front camera calibration, rear spoiler teach-in and window and seat-motor initialisation. Which procedures you see depends on the control units in the car.

04 · Coding & programming

Coding and programming a Porsche 911 (992)

Coding on the 911 works as on every supported Porsche: a flat table per control unit, one row per parameter, a full server backup before every write and a read-back afterwards. Automatic coding compares each record with what the factory rules require for the car's vehicle order and writes only what deviates. More on the Porsche coding software page.

Software updates work on the 992 too: program one control unit by hand, or let automatic programming bring the car to its target software. It takes a programming pass (€49 for one car, 7 days) or the workshop plan; see the pricing page. What the 992 does not have: the battery pack map and the Charging page (Taycan only), the dyno-mode procedure, and decoded freeze frames.

05 · Getting started

From download to first scan

01Download STEUER14 for macOS 13 or later (Apple silicon) or Windows 10/11 (64-bit) and create an account.
02Plug a standard ENET (Ethernet-to-OBD) cable into the 911's OBD port and into your laptop.
03Switch the ignition on, connect, and let the app scan the control units.
04Read the fault memory for free. Add a car licence or the workshop plan when you want live values, maintenance and coding, and a programming pass for software updates.

Pricing in short: the car licence is €249 once for two of your own cars, unlocked for good; a programming pass is €49 for one car for 7 days, coding included; the workshop plan is €89 a month or €890 a year for every car, programming included. Prices plus 5% card fee. All sales are final, so try the free part on your car first.

Coding changes the car
Coding and programming change the car: whether a particular change, such as a retrofit, is allowed where the car is driven depends on local rules and is your responsibility, as with any tester. STEUER14 makes a backup before every write and asks you to confirm, but coding always carries some risk: follow the manual and put a charger on the 12 V battery.
