Title: B6 A4 24C08 - Dead Cluster Post by: NonRicer on April 20, 2015, 12:45:17 PM Guys i need your help please.
I was using Tacho Pro to try and reprogram 24c08 and i think i might've messed up the cluster.. I kept getting 'general error by reading' couldn't connect to the chip via clip, in the process of trial and error i kept plugging and unplugging the cluster and the last time i plugged it in only 3 lights came on 'ABS' 'EPC' 'AIRBAG'. Car now wont stay on past 2 seconds. and the cluster is completely dead besides those 3 lights. (last time i plugged it in i didn't hear the needle resetting that's when i knew something was up) Tried disconnecting battery, no faults reported via OBD. All fuses seem good. I think i might've corrupted the chip, but i did save the original data, < but i used the 93c eeprom board which was not the correct one so i don't know if it saved the data correctly. I know this is very noob of me, guys you have an input ? Title: Re: B6 A4 24C08 - Dead Cluster Post by: f1torrents on April 21, 2015, 04:23:15 PM The data will be encrypted and there for useless to read anyway.
You cannot even write it to a new cluster as its encryption mask will not match the MCU from the new cluster. What were you trying to accomplish. Do you have DEF error now? Title: Re: B6 A4 24C08 - Dead Cluster Post by: NonRicer on April 23, 2015, 10:57:07 AM ^^thanks for the reply!
I was trying to adjust mileage, im not getting a DEF error, i think i fried the cluster. Anyways if i get a virginized cluster will i need vagcom to adjust mileage? will it have to be set to the old mileage or can it be whatever i want ?
