I have a 2002 New Beetle Turbo S: 1.8T AWP, six speed ERR 02M trans with (immo III):
What I have done so far:
1. physically: swapped clusters: (exact same unit: correct replacement part numbers as shown on ETKA @ my VW dealer's parts dept. as per my VIN #)
a. matched /keys to new cluster, softcoding etc.
b. car starts and works fine with new/matched cluster
2. inputting milage:
last step I haven't done
I am confused about milage inputting; not the process but whether KMs or Miles, are used. I seem to be getting info that US based VW New Beetles; use "miles" and shouldn't be inputted/converted from KM's? From what I understand; my speedo cluster is specific non-VDO unit but it is made by Magneti Marelli (M73).
as noted in this quote:
"•Adaptation value on Magneti Marelli (M73) instrument clusters for US models must be entered in miles. "
I am referencing this procedure: shown for the VAG 1551/1552 Scan Tool:
http://newbeetle.org/forums/questio...-new-beetle/45794-instrument-cluster-diy.html
There are times; when I am looking at official VW manuals that show procedures, for the VAG 1551/1552 Scan Tool and I have to kinda figure it out on , through guessing, as I go along. I'll be honest; I have been putting this off for quite awhile, as I sent out the speedo to be "zero'd" and I feel like I have "one shot" to do it and then (if the process doesn't work and I screw up the km/miles odometer reading), I am stuck back to square one and will have to ship it out, to be zero'd again! Am I off base here or am I on the right track? Thanks, for looking! :-)...billy
PS: I am referencing the listed procedure; below (didn't mean to dump this on here but wanted to show you, I am looking/reading the ):
Procedure for installing a NEW Instrument Cluster in vehicles with Immobilizer III:
With the OLD Instrument Cluster in the vehicle, write down the current mileage.
(Volkswagens only, if you are working on an Audi, skip to step 3)
[Select]
[Display] (Less Common Modules)
[19 - CAN Gateway]
Write down the 5 digit number from the "Soft. Coding" field, make note that is the CAN number.
[Close Controller, Go Back - 06]
[Select]
[17 - Instruments]
Write down the 14 digit Immobilizer ID number from the "Extra" field and the 5 digit number from the "Soft. Coding" field, make note that is the OLD Instrument Cluster Coding.
[Close Controller, Go Back - 06]
(If you have a 2002+ Audi, write down the current Adaptation values for Channels 60 through 70, if available)
Take that 14-digit Immobilizer ID number (along with your VIN number) to your dealer and request your seven-digit , along with the workshop code and importer number ( the workshop code and importer number can be found in the upper-right corner of the Administration screen of the dealer's VAS 5051).
Install the new Instrument Cluster.
Measure the car's battery voltage, it must be 12.5 V or higher.
(Volkswagens only, if you are working on an Audi, skip to step 8)
[Select]
[Display] (Less Common Modules)
[19 - CAN Gateway]
[Recode - 07]
Enter the 5 digit number that you wrote down as the CAN number.
[Do It!]
[Close Controller, Go Back - 06]
[Select]
[17 - Instruments]
[Recode - 07]
Enter the 5 digit number that you wrote down as the Instrument Cluster Coding.
[Do It!]
[Adaptation - 10]
Enter 50 in Channel Number
[Read]
[Use 7-digit PIN/]
Enter the 7-digit PIN from the OLD Instrument Cluster, Date on which the PIN was GENERATED BY THE DEALER, along with the dealer's Workshop Code () and the Importer number
[OK]
will validate the data you have entered and return you to the Adaptation screen, where the New Value will show as "XXXXX".
[Test]
[Save]
[Done, Go Back]
[Close Controller, Go Back - 06]
Switch ignition off and then back on within one minute but do not start vehicle.
[Select]
[17 - Instruments]
Verify that the VIN now displayed in the "Extra" field is the same as the VIN of the vehicle.
[Close Controller, Go Back - 06]
You can check to make sure a key has the correct electronics in it so that it can be matched to the Immobilizer by:
[Select]
[17 - Instruments]
[Meas. Blocks - 08]
Group 022
[Go!]
The value in field 3 must be 1. If value is not 1, the key is not capable of being adapted to Immobilizer. You can check each key in this manner.
[Select]
[17 - Instruments]
[Meas. Blocks - 08]
Group 024
[Go!]
Any numbers displayed in fields 1-4 represent the time in minutes that must be counted down before the Immobilizer is unlocked. If the fields are all zero, skip to step 16. If the Immobilizer is locked:
[Done, Go Back]
[Close Controller, Go Back - 06]
Do not switch off the ignition! Allow the car to sit for AT LEAST the number of minutes that were indicated by the display in Group 024
[Select]
[17 - Instruments]
[Meas. Blocks - 08]
Group 024
[Go!]
Make sure all fields are zero.
[Done, Go Back]
[Login - 11]
[Use 7-digit PIN/]
Enter the 7-digit PIN from the OLD Instrument Cluster, Date on which the PIN was generated by the dealer, along with the Workshop Code () and the Importer number of the dealer that generated the code.
[OK]
will validate the data you have entered and return you to the Login screen, where the Login Code will show as "XXXXX".
[Do It!]
[Adaptation - 10]
Enter 21 in "Channel Number"
[Read]
The "Stored Value" is the number of keys currently matched.
Enter "new value" of 0
[Save]
This clears out the old key-matchings.
Enter a "new value" corresponding to the total number of keys to be matched, including any existing keys
[Save]
[Done, Go Back]
[Close Controller, Go Back - 06]
Switch ignition off and remove key
Insert next key to ignition and switch ignition on again
The warning light for the Immobilizer will light up for ~2 seconds, then go out
Switch ignition off and remove key
Repeat step 20 with each key until all keys have been matched.
--- Entering the Mileage in the New Cluster ---
If you are live in a market where the odometer reading is in miles, you should change to km before entering the mileage. To do this, consult the Factory Repair Manual for your vehicle. Here is an example:
[Select]
[17 - Instruments]
[Recode - 07]
Change the 3rd digit from a "2" (US) to a "3" (Canada)
[Do It!]
Confirm that the odometer in the car now shows kilometers, not miles.
[Select]
[17 - Instruments]
[Adaptation - 10]
Enter "channel number" 09 to select channel
Put in the number of km divided by 10. Example: If old cluster had 50,357 km, put in 5036.
Note: Some clusters may require a Login of 13861 before you can set the mileage.
[Test]
Observe the Instrument Cluster and make sure the mileage displayed is correct. Once you save this value, you will be unable to change the mileage EVER!
[Save]
If you are live in a market where the odometer reading is in miles, you should now change back to miles. To do this, consult the Factory Repair Manual for your vehicle. Here is an example:
[Select]
[17 - Instruments]
[Recode - 07]
Change the 3rd digit from a "3" (Canada) to a "2" (US)
[Do It!]
Confirm that the odometer in the car now shows miles, not kilometers. Make sure that the mileage reading is correct.
Note: If you are installing an instrument cluster that has ever been installed in another car, you must insert the following step. Also, bear in mind that you will not be able to change the mileage of a cluster that has more than 100 km on the odometer):
8.5 [Login - 11]
[Use 7-digit PIN/]
Enter the 7-digit PIN for the USED Instrument Cluster, Date on which the PIN was generated by the
dealer, along with the Workshop Code () and the Importer number of the dealer that generated
the code.
[OK]
This should effectively "wipe out" the previous matching.
