Could somebody please help me? My Focus MK3 (2013) shows on odometer "error". I've tried to solve it with ELM327 and Focccus to put back original mileage (185500 km) but no luck. Still shows only "error" :/ Car could be started and driven without any problems...

Is any way to solve it with f.e. ELM327 and some software? Or how to get dump or something like that from dashboard...

Pictures attached...

Do you mean read EEPROM directly from the dash (out of the car) or is some way to do it via OBD...?

I think you are another victim of obd2 toy.

Obd2 tools are faster ....however faster job doesn't mean a better job.

You need to read directly to cluster

So you think that only way to get it fixed is to remove dash? Oh dear :D

I've tried yet to read EEPROM with FVDI but without success... FVDI throws "Security Access 1 Failed"

Remove dash from car, open it, remove eeprom and read it with a real eeprom programmer. Then post
file here and somebody will fix for you, is that so difficult?
