Best guy for BMW repair in Europ for sure.. Only best ones always clean before replacing part, put parts on cloth watch to dont scratch tham and if peaces and some dirt fall on floor you swipe it and clean right away... Those things only best of the best do. And your knowledge is equal to engineers in BMW factory...., you are the best.. Regards from Croatia. P. S. TRY to explain little more detail about diagnostic work... Lot's of us wants to buy and download ISTA+ and Ista p and buy plugs, and try to understand better how it works... Thank you!!!!

[@WildDjinnie]

So nice to see how this kind of work is done in details. Thank you for sharing experience. 😊

[@JGV_IX]

I’m so happy the seller forgot to reset the cluster - was super interesting to see you reprogram it! Awesome job!!

I believe this is another video that will help me to retrofit my X1 F48. Thank you my friend.

Highly skilled and professional job ❤ So this is how my car came with a dailed back odometer 👍 I do not have a tamper dot, but always wondered how it would be done. Thanks for a great learning experience 👍

[@MOvidiu]

Well in your case they have done even the CAS module, or they have mounted an emulator.

[@MadeInScale]

Good job! 👍 There is no need to change the VIN number in the firmware, you can simply write it in the necessary memory bits FFFFFFF and cluster will read VIN from over ECUs

[@MOvidiu]

Yes, you are perfectly right!

[@Hannnnnzi]

How to do the way you just described?

[@emiliobuono]

Is it always necessary to desolder the memory chip and alter the VIN? Or would the FFFFFFF string remove this requirement? Amazing video, thank you!

[@MadeInScale]

@@emiliobuono The memory chip is desoldered for convenient operation and it may not be possible to connect it to the programmer without soldering. The FFFFFFF recording is made AFTER desoldering and connecting to the programmer. You can write FFFFFFF, or you can write VIN numbers

So if de mileage from de secondhand new cluster is lower than your own car, the cluster will import the mileage from the car and you’ll only need to change the VIN?

[@MOvidiu]

Hello! Yes, you can add the vin if you have the car on hand or can make the vin with FF FF (blank) and after that can mount the cluster on any car!

[@mariusmarius1846]

Just a great job done💪

[@gerbryf]

Interesting stuff. I've done this for e60/61 and e39 clusters. I got hold of a clip that meant I didn't need to de-solder the memory ic, unless I had to replace it. It saved some time from having to disturb the soldering. Thanks for sharing. I wonder if these 6wa or 6wb clusters would work in a e60/e61 (535d specifically)? They look great!

[@franktrivoluzzi6202]

What clip?

[@gerbryf]

@@franktrivoluzzi6202 it's a clamp that connects yo all the legs on the chip without having to desolder it. Most programmer sellers would sell them...

Hi. I had mine coded however I have relished the gear indicator in the cluster is missing. It usually displays D,N,P etc. it has arrows instead. The cluster things it’s on manual set up

[@fedortabako637]

So I got a question Would it work if I just rewelded the chip from the old to the new cluster ? Thank you so much great tutorial !

[@RahulSharmaworks]

Did you got any update on this

[@TdrMds]

Did you do that to both chips or only one?

[@-RaiKo-]

Good job, useful video!!!

[@FaisalShaikh-h5h]

Sir which file you have edited

[@duartegomes9455]

Amazing explanation! When the cluster is not virginized, besides the red dot, is normal that the mileage done after the coding, is not storage? I mean, I coded the cluster and went for a short test drive (9kms) and then parked the car. When I came back, the mileage went back to de mileage that the car had when I did coding

[@MOvidiu]

The cluster will import milage from CAS or BDC

[@pandi2231]

Good job bro

[@turfcoa8522]

How much money would you charge to reset it and code it then ?

[@joaquinvasquez7923]

Great job buddy!.... I was wondering if maybe you had some time so I can get your thoughts on an issue I have with my 08 550i. My gear selector won't light up green indicator, won't come out of parking, I have blue box around EGS modual on ista D. I just received ICOM 2 but I never used it before and sorta new to it

[@MOvidiu]

See on my videos I have posted one how to reprogram with istaP. but be aware it can fail in the writing process you can't control that ...

[@joaquinvasquez7923]

@M.Ovidiu yeah I understand. The thing is I had done the sat conversion around this time last year and everything coded great. August this year I remember I was running ista p for the sat modual and it ended up coding the car after that the steering wheel the S on the kombi, it went away. So I was in the middle of winkfp doing the egs coding and I wasn't paying attention I was arguing with my girl and I pushed something... after that the gear shifter blinked a few times and never came back on. The battery also went dead and so I eneded up with programming abort on EGS.

[@thabangmamorare8647]

besides the tamper dot what happens if you don't change mileage n vin and code on the new cluster??

[@MOvidiu]

If you don't change the miles you will have the tamper dot withnes and if the "new " cluster have more mules than the vehicle , the vehicle will import the higher mileage, can go un not down! Also, you will lose all the CBS data and can not reset set new services ! Lastly, if you don't code it, some functions won't work like cruise control and so on

[@pbalazs82]

Hi, Ovi. I'm planning to retrofit a navigation display/speedometer into my Mini R56 2010. Do you have any information on which cluster is storing the milage information (if I need to consider it at all)? Is it the small RPM counter or the big speedometer? I found confusing information in forums and want to avoid that the car takes over the milage from the used cluster... I love your videos, keep on going ✌
