Aftermarket Digital Cluster for BMW

Unfortunately the aftermarket digital instrument clusters for BMW are not made to perfectly work with BMWs , so in this videos I will try to to do something about that, my plan is to add an original cluster inside the dashboard to maintain the BMW functionality , the theoretically will work but practically is a different story and seems too be more challenging.... if you want to see what I've done you need to watch the videos

!!! Ops it looks like you've reached the bottom !!!

[@saynotothegreatreset]

You have to apply for the NASA job, that's an outstanding job . Well done 👏

[@MOvidiu]

I don't think so 😀

[@Alpejohn]

I never thought the Y connection for the MOST would work, thats pretty crazy!

[@MOvidiu]

Me neither! And it is still working!

[@EmilsLasmanis999]

You are crazy, I would never had thought of doing something like this. You are a blessing for this community.

[@tbntvculture9373]

Even bmw technician wont be able to do this well done

[@MrFryfish]

They are parts replacement man...

[@AndreiAB]

That fibre optic connection gave me chills :))

[@Calimero-1980]

remarkable impressive to say the least. WOW

[@sergeypanevin]

Thanks for this vid! I was thinking aftermarket dash is somehow limited, and now I know I wouldn't bother buying one and getting that working in a right way. Great amount of work, especially optical connection hack.

[@sebawinowp9506]

Jesteś moim Masterem w tym co chcę zrobić w swoim BMW. Szacunek.

[@MrFryfish]

Crazy stuff that you have the knowledge about. Great.

[@BadBoyNK]

your passion is something else man , great project :)

[@MOvidiu]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@Hancock_nl]

I like the analytical approach to solve this problem. Not one which i would have come up with. Well done 👍 But to be honest, this style of dashboard layout is totally not my thing. I need to see gauges with swaying needles. Guess i'm getting old 😎

[@frankzhang6853]

This is next level. Awesome work!

[@carolvalicek8568]

Jos pălăria!!! Baftă in continuare!! Salutari

[@FloPius]

It's a great job! Wow! Thank you for sharing with us! I have learned much!

[@MOvidiu]

Thank you for your feedback! You're awesome!

[@FloPius]

It is amazing, what you are doing with these cars! I wish, I could, too.... I love your videos, because you explain every step and that helped me a lot, doing my retrofits. Thank you very much!

[@suddendilemma5137]

Very nice 👍🏼 and you got it on a deal.

[@MOvidiu]

Yes indeed!

[@gislehildershavn399]

Fantastic info video! Hope you're doing fine in the US! 😉

[@MOvidiu]

I am! Thanks

[@andyapple9]

You are amazing.

[@MOvidiu]

You are!

[@albaniakosova7248]

Well done 👌please, if you find the solution why those 2 errors are appearing in ISTA, keep us updated ✌

[@fraizer2600]

love it need to see next when you fix those problem to have 0 error ^^

[@MOvidiu]

Working on it!

[@a.d.7042]

thanks for the video, there is so much knowledge and work going into this.... At my opinion it doesn't worth it, for an average guy. It´s much easier to install a android radio, it´s plug and play and you can keep all the original features

[@MrFryfish]

Mate, you comment is lame.. This is next level. Just admit and admire that you have not seen and got the explanation about how it works, ANYWHERE ELSE. That woud be enough to recognise his effort.

[@badazz12r]

diode isolate your sensors inputs so both clusters reads as a single device.

[@MOvidiu]

I've tried that, and it is not working. The measurement is done through a voltage drop by the temp sensor resistance.

[@MrFryfish]

👾👽

[@LUVMYVFR]

Hey now you're just showing off! LOL great video! Did you get to the INDY 500 last weekend?? They used to run F1 cars there, nothing better than a V10 screaming to 20,000 RPM's!!

[@wnbdriver]

my guess is that the errors are about the actual display of the cluster. it has some nice fade in/fade out on ignition switch which I think are driven and monitored by the cluster itself. I'm skeptical about being able to code the monitoring out though because there are no clusters without displays.

[@barryjackson4048]

I have the same cluster and same problem and this video was awesome you should work for the Chinese or them work for you! Would I do this....far to technical for me but great to watch

[@joshhansan-bj6ju]

👍👍excellent work I wish I could change mine like that.

[@renatasr4570]

👍😎

[@MOvidiu]

Oh yeah 😎

[@a14471]

Bmw Master xD

[@dawiskid187]

Great job dude.

[@radusofronici8095]

Good to see you back. Do I understand correctly that the CBS is in the cluster?

[@andyapple9]

Kombi is the cluster. Cbs is relted to service intervals.

[@iulikdev]

Tu esti roman! 🤣🤣🤣

[@Drapul3a]

I bought one 2 weeks ago and I send it back after a week of using. First off all it won’t register new mileage and the car , second of all service required not display anymore, third is the speed it’s not the same it’s 2 miles slower and the problems they keep going . But what made my to send it back was the fuel tank , it won’t show the real fuel on the tank and when I switched back to my original one even that one won’t show the real amount. Over all don’t bother with this unless you r this guy and know all this stuff how to mend it

[@maltepacino5585]

I can send you an update for the cluster. I got the same for F15 and it shows me the check service and much more. You can setup much more with the new update.

[@MOvidiu]

Hello! I have the cluster firmware updated and "all the cars released "

[@maltepacino5585]

@@MOvidiu can you now Setup the service intervals in the cluster? Does it show you oil temperature? If yes it's the newest firmware of the Linux cluster

[@dobrisanmihai2952]

Never use more than 350 360 degree on your soldering iron/station cause you will destroy the tips and burn the flux very fast

[@racoviceanualexandru5574]

Salut Ovidiu! Imi poti spune te rog daca doresti la ce foloseste 'Splice-ul' si care e rolul lui in sistemul de cablaj BMW ? Merci anticipat, faci o treaba fantastica!

[@jrma906]

So, just for my understanding. You “duplicate” in parallel, the cluster, enough to communicate with cíc and rest of the modules

[@MOvidiu]

Yes! Check out there is one more video with this!

[@antonispk6760]

Great video. Just one question , how do you understand which chip is the eeprom from the board?

[@MrFryfish]

Online search for IC codes that usually are printed on them.

[@MrWalidAloui507]

I have the same problem with this cluster. Where are you from? Can you do the same with mine to works ?

[@jorhanfernandez3886]

Do you sell these adaptors to plug in with the aftermarket digital cluster?

Would this be “the same” on E70/E71?

[@MOvidiu]

I don't think so.

[@antaris42]

The model on the video is based on CIC It depends on your version of E70. If I remember correctly on E70/E71 you have both of, depending of the model year (if i’m correct the change was in 2008) CCC : Before 2008 (LVDS cable) CIC : 2008 to 2013 Hope it helps you 🤷‍♂️ 🖖

[@aqua_von_saqua8497]

I got an ID4Motion for $120, that was a deal ! Is that a real BMW cluster or a China clone ?

[@MOvidiu]

ID4motion is only for the old E series! The car in this video is an F25 , the cluster is a Linux type

[@AhmedToson-tj2yz]

Please I need to replace my cluster display my car is E 66 730 li do I need programming??

[@DanielPunOfficial]

Cum aș putea să vorbesc cu tine? Am o problemă după ce am făcut ceva cu Ista, nu mai pornește mașina :((

[@alekscircel2292]

first !

[@MOvidiu]

Yes, you are first, and also, you are awesome!

[@95sxy]

salut, ceasurile sunt id4motion ?

[@MOvidiu]

Salut! Nu

[@MrFryfish]

Do you have an email address to ask you a question about ISTA?

[@AlexRR1]

Salut! Ai idee daca pentru un e92 cu navigatie ccc sunt aceleasi probleme? Sau daca arta pe bord functia de distronic cu distanta selectata si tot ce tine de asta? Multumesc

[@MOvidiu]

Salut , din pacate nu stiu!

[@DimasFajar-ns4vb]

si rojul channel youtube channel sir

[@oleggazon]

What BMW model? Year?

[@leiflillandt1488]

The same question! Is it the same car that you have worked on earlier? Unfortunately I have forgotten what model and year it was...

[@MOvidiu]

Yes , same x3 f25 2013

[@leiflillandt1488]

​@@MOvidiuIf you do more changes to this car, I would like to know the VIN code of the car to better understand what challenges you face and what is possible to change and fit to an older generation of F25s. To be honest I am looking forward, maybe already this fall, to change to a MY2017 F25 30d with "all" options that were available on cars imported to Sweden, if the prices go down "a little bit" more. One problem is that I want a carbon black with oyster interior, and most (over 90 %?) of which have black leather interior, which is boring. Swedish second hand cars are cheaper than corresponding cars in Germany! But now I have bought spare parts for another 1,000 Euro for my 2011 X3 30d... What can you expect from a car with 255,000 km on the clock? In fact there is no big emigiate problems, mostly normal wear and tear. I like the car, not too big, but big enough to offer some protection if I hit a moose, which I have done once 30 years ago. By the way, your garage looks like the one you had earlier... 😁😁😁 So now we can start to see some more fascinating stuff... Have a nice summer!
