***If you mess up bad enough to brick the cluster, simply put it back in mode 6 and write your new cluster encrypted backup. You will also see the new cluster's VIN to the right of the IMMO ID. Close controller, remove key from ignition for 1 min.ġ0: Turn key back on. In the test box, enter original SKC (01111). Cluster is not adapted yet and still uses its own SKC.ĩ: Go to adapt. This is just summarized from them.Ĩ: Login to instruments using new cluster SKC (02222).
Vag eeprom programmer 1.19 how to#
Ross Tech has an instruction and video on how to do this as well. You can adapt using VCDS if you have both SKC's anyways)ħ: Exit Vag EEPROM Programmer. (Note: I first tried using virgin mode to adapt, but wasn't clear on the rest of the process and messed up.

If you are using km, obviously no conversion is needed.Ħ: Put back into mode 6. Using the RB4 drop down menu, click Set Kilometers. For this example, we will use 02222.ĥ: Convert current mileage to km, enter it into the box in the lower right. Write down SKC, using same method as above. You are now done with the original cluster.Ĥ: Read decrypted. This number will be adapted to the new cluster so it matches the ECU. Put a 0 in front of it, and this is your SKC (ex. At the bottom it will display a 4 digit number (ex. 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. Ross tech explains this well.ġ: Open Vag EEPROM Programmer. Go into instruments and do the same thing. In VCDS, go into engine and write down IMMO ID. If you don't have it and continue, you may have to drive in silence until the radio can be unlocked out of safe mode. Before starting, you may need your radio code. Reading in the wrong mode will only result in a program error, whereas writing in the wrong mode can mess up the cluster. Mode 4 is also where you get SKC's and change mileage. bins that this program can work with, depending on the mode the cluster is in.

I took an '04 cluster and put it in my '02. All of the RB4 cluster only stuff still applies, although the year doesn't matter at all. I will outline this procedure very quickly - more detail/screenshots if there is interest. I used a different program, Vag EEPROM Programmer 1.19, to get the SKC's and change mileage. There is a healthy chance of bricking the cluster, which this program cannot repair.

EBay Vag Dash Can software seems to be a crapshoot as to whether you get a good copy or not.
