Did you get the right chip for the car with it?

[Chipa]

Which chip? What means ?

[RobbieV]

He means the computer chip in the Fuel comp, is it calibrated for your engine ?

[mic43]

have you got a Mechanical counter or by abs ??
did you roll with?

[Fraz]

the range function will not work with the LCD dash fitted ...that is why you have a "F" displayed for fault

[Chipa]

RobbieV,
I do not know. I only buy and BC panel and i connect it..

mic43,
Abs - what is in the middle?

Fraz,
How can I do? You told me?

[RobbieV]

The fuel comp has different chips for different engines.

[v6 steve]

on the back of the comp you'll see a white/yellow plastic chip that has to match the engine in your car or it has to be reprogrammed with a tech 1

[Fraz]

press and hold the two buttons for the trip computer ...the ones on center console ...turn igntion on and get the numbers that come up on BC ...will tell you the codes for the BC chip

[Chipa]

v6 steve,

do you mean this?

Fraz,

I did that, and text on display was 8544. What should I do next?

How do I find out whether bc chip code matches my engine or not?

[Fraz]

yes that is the chip in the BC

and your code 36 is for 20NE/SEJ, 20SE/SEJ, C20NE/SE Motronic ML4.1


so your readings wil be well out

[Chipa]

and your code 36 is for 20NE/SEJ, 20SE/SEJ, C20NE/SE Motronic ML4.1

My engine is C20ne. So, my engine should communicate with BC just fine?

Any ideas what to do next?

[Fraz]

but dont the Calibra C20NE use Motronic M1.5???? But I do not know what your trying to fix ....everything seems to work as it should apart from the range function ....and that will not work with the LCD dash fitted, well we cant get it to work over here anyway


oh and looks like your dash needs new blubs

should be bright like mine is

[Chipa]

i'll post another video to illustrate it better


..and which bulbs do you recomend? can i buy them on ebay or elsewhere? can you post he link?
