Title: vw mk4 v6 BDE instrument cluster swap
Post by: Leon Mk1 on January 16, 2015, 07:23:04 AM
hello all forum members
bought a v6 4motion model 2000
the orignal instrument cluster had an electrical short at the old owner and swaped into
new (used) instrument cluster, same part number,MOTOMETER brand.
i dont have the part number right now but i will add it asap.
i want to adapt the new (used) instrument and turn off the annoying IMMO light off.
i ordered VAGTACHO cable but didnt got it yet.
if it helps i also have blue vag com cable and vcds 12.12 cable.

my question is
if the old origninal cluster is DEAD, how can i get the SKC to adapt the new(used) instrument ?
i also want to adapt a new key with immo.
the car is cranking and runing because i have HALTECH ecu plugged.
many thanks for your help

Why do you need to adapt if your car is running with Haltech? Just stuff something into the immo led hole :)

Old cluster SKC can also be retrieved from the original ecu.

so many light got black painted... ;D
this specific light is annoying cause it also blinked
and i'm not sure i can adapt new key (alarm) to my car without adapting the cluster\immo.
i got vcds fault code says somthing about emergency or so on my cluster.
retrieving SKC from ECU, how ?
thanks for quick replay

Since your car is a 2000 model, it uses the IMMO2 system.
This means that your engine ECU does not store the SKC.
Anyway, you don't need the old SKC, you only need the SKC from the new cluster.

Both are needed only on IMMO3 systems and newer...

"The Coding from the OLD (ORIGINAL) cluster has been saved"
