Hi, what do I need to find out a pin and rewrite eeprom memory on mk II cluster? I use Vag Tacho on mk I but that doesn't work on mk II.

to do what exactly ?

I'm replacing my old cluster with a new one so i need to read the pin and adjust the odometer.

Nobody knows?

which mk2 cluster is it

 

2006 - 2009

2010 - 2015

i'm not sure. Its the pre-facelift one with white maxidot: 5J0 920 841B.

I've read somewhere that Vag Commander 3.6 can do it but i'm not sure about it.

Does anybody know?

You want advice on how to  "adjust the odometer"?

Well, yes. I neet to known what do I need to do things like read pin, change eeprom settings and to adjust the odometer.

Adjusting the odometer is technically "illegal" unless you are fitting a new one which is zero miles OR one that has "less" than you current one you are replacing.

 

Most can be adjusted / increased, but unless your a prefessional car clocker they cannot go back the other way. You need just a diagnostic tool (good one like Vagcom) to read your current one and then follow the correct procedure to replace it.

I have Vagcom but that will not read the pin or let me rewrite the eeprom memory. The new cluster is in mph and i need to change that to kph (imported part - a lot cheaper), i'm puting mk2 cluster into mk1 car so i need to change some variable in the eeprom to make the fuel gauge work properly. I've been reading on this "mod" and apparently i also need that pin (Vagcom can't read pin).

I need that cluster pin to login in to the immobiliser right?

I've been searching for the answer on the internet for over a month and still nothing. I'm pretty sure that it is posible i just don't know what software it requires. Does anybody know?

I would ask here....maybe somone can help...

A word about Retrofits: If you have installed something in your car that isn't listed in the VW/Audi Parts Catalog as a direct replacement for a part that was installed in your car from the factory and you need help getting it working, please post your question in our forum so that others may contribute to the answers and benefit in the future.   Sorry, but we really can't answer every one of these kinds of questions, and no, we do not know what is needed to install a 3G MMI system in your Mk.5 GTI, however you will find tips for a number common retrofits in our Wiki.

 

They don't know either on Ross-tech because they only do VCDS.

Hi. Did you ever manage to get the PIN number for the mk2 cluster? If so, what did you use?

Hi, unfortunately I didn't. I've found some software that can do it but it is way too expensive for just one go.
