i ordered a 335 cluster on ebay because i do white led conversions on the clusters. i got a spare cluster so i can mod one and take the buyers cluster back to mod and hand out and so on like a core swap. But when i put in the cluster the tach didnt work. i called the ebay seller and he said it has to be coded. is this true? its a 335 cluster going into a 335. Thanks in advance

can you post link item you bought?

[TroyDeJ]

I dont have the link anymore, sorry. Can you still see an item once the auction has ended?

did you resloved your problem with the coding?

[Dziqsek_]

Of course it need to be coding!! Clusters have informations inside like odometer, different settings , different number etc.

Find someone with winkfp and daten files and update it to your car , then use ncs to set back all cluster settings to defaults

du you realy only need winkfp to code the cluster? i tought you have to change also the eprom on the board of the cluster

My dealer is replacing my cluster under warranty and they told me the new one will need to be coded as well.

None of the modules use eproms, they are all flash upgradable via the oBD port.

You need to code the KOMBI module, and the dash will work fine (yeh, I'm an expert on that as I coded an old version into my dash, and I had no tach, fuel gauge, temp sensor... )

would like to know how you did that. even the miles/km where right after coding? what tool did you used?

[Alvine90]

I would like to know too. I'd rather have a temperature gauge rather than an instant mpg one.

Sorry, I managed to butcher my dash on my car trying to code some changes, not swap it out (the butcher part = no tach, etc).

I'd assume the INPA tools would do that though. I believe that's all BMW uses when would swap the dash. The KOMBI module governs the dash.

Did you ever end up coding the cluster properly? Did you go to the dealer? price?

nope, the other cluster is sitting in my room, probably just going to sell it
