If it does not write the first time, try a few more times. It should go back to functioning normally. ***If you somehow manage to brick the original cluster, put it in mode 6 (adapted) and write the backup encrypted file to it. I don't know if they change depending on what mode the cluster is in.ġ: Read encrypted cluster. For future steps, always use the RB4 dropdown list instead of the buttons.
I am computer capable, just need a little direction.ġ: Open Vag EEPROM Programmer. I apologize for being a noob, but I'm kinda out of options here. I think once I have these two items, I can do the adaptation through VCDS, correct?īTW, the car runs, it's just that the hazard lights flash and the cluster is in 'safe' mode. I have to turn immo back on in the ECU to program the keys, right? Is there a way to do this in the car via OBD? Also, since the cluster was never adapted, it still has the SKC from the donor VIN which I need to retrieve as well, correct? How would I go about this one. Here's what I'm assuming but really need my hand held on this. I had new keys cut but the locksmith was unable to program them. Well, fast forward a year and my son lost the only key we had.
From what I understand, that's okay because the ECU has immo turned off. Turns out the guy had to replace the cluster but appears he never adapted it to the car. Need a little assistance here! I have a B6 that the cluster failed originally and I sent off the ECU, cluster, and key to have reprogrammed.
