BA Falcon Instrument Cluster EEPROM Programming

[TazzI]

I have found a program that can apparently do pats (I'm assuming with a elm), the only thing required is a extended license will report back with more info after i have had a play.

Well bit the bullet and gave the PATS a go in the car, was having no luck on the bench. i'm happy to report that i had no trouble at all adding a new body module, and initializing the pcm to it.

Tools i used was a USB elm327 and forscan with the extended license.
the only catch is you need a minimum of one key thats programmed to the BCM, and a 2nd to code to it if you only have 1.
the procedure then delets all known keys and allows you to add the keys required then sync the modules.
Unfortunately it didn't sync my icc. Hopefully it's something they can research and make it possible in the future

So it did the whole in-out codes?

The BA didn't ask for incode/outcodes. think that might have came came on the BF (the BF PCM i played with on the bench at one point did).
The BA PATS wanted timed access so just had a 12 min wait to get access. i should have tapped it and made a video, and i may even end up redoing it to make a video if i'm not lazy.

sure is, BF FPV ill get the details off of it over the weekend at some point and share them (cluster is now in the car with some bells and whistles that are not in that dump.)

Hey

I've got this dash dump from the cluster i was playing around with (I think it was an BF II XR6 dash, had the series II fascia anyway), from memory it had just shy of 200k km's on it, save me the hassle of flashing it back to check the km's if someone could confirm the amount for me (gotta get a socket so i can plug and play, not solder )

Cheers

Sweet thanks matt, now i can label it and drop it in with the rest of gathered bins

I thought the shift alert didn't work at all with non FPV clusters? Don't happen to know what position it is in the Eeprom?

I noticed its quite simple to swap over those left hand LCD's for converting from low to high series cluster (didn't realize they just popped out/aren't soldered), is buying up and butchering say a ghia cluster/high series cluster the only way to get the LCD? (as per my questions earlier in the thread)

Not quite sure what you mean by swapping over LCD's? Why would you change the LCD?

Got pictures of what you mean? I dont have one of the clusters apart infront of me at the moment, but Id imagine all LCDs would be the same, and the LCD it self would not have any micro-controllers connected to it thus nothing should technically change?
