2003 focus instrument cluster and ids

[obdmaster]

Got customer with 2003 focus and mileage isnt displayed and abs and handbrake w/l. Comes on with no faults. Diagnosed cluster ?66+vat, cheap eh? but on back order. Was going to get local ford garage to program it but back order. So heres my question is it possible to program these instrument clusters with clone ids? And if so on what version. Ford garage as already said will lose mileage is that true or can you program mileage into new cluster with ids, ids clone. much thanks in advance

Yeah, feeling of de ja vous, the milage will be zero, we had one last week same shit differant day, PremiarD and myself we talking about this in the ecu section, the one we had, (Meat-Head Motors) just plugged it in and took his money, phoned couple of repair places ?99+vat for repait ?69+ vat for new, 'not possable' to wind milage up, didn't go to fords, just plug and walked away.

The old clocks i have sat next to me, i'm going to change the two capictors sometime within the next 10 years for a laugh and see what happens.

Not going to argue with anyone, but the one i have is also 2003 and seems to just have NEC processer, but it involves using energy to LITTERALLY extend my right arm and check.

lm sure ford r doing these for 100 pound all in fitted because off a known fault

If you do mate .... at the same time (muti task )Grab your camera and snap a pickie .....(of the cluster that is )....

[PremierD]

Your right mate ... I did't say anything about quality ....But the red Circle in the Blury bit .. is where the 24c16 ..or 24u17 (same thing ) should be .... (a bit of poetic licence required )... Holds the mileage ...and the data required too change to a new /second hand cluster ... (from the same model of course )

Only 2003-2006 cluster has 24cu16 eeprom,strip needles off to get to it,earlier clusters have HC Micro
Pay your local mileage guy to do it....much cheepness

Hi there, welcome to DK the worlds best website, our jump lead swinging friend had an open thread about IN-correcting one of these.

Something about you could IN-correct with just 2 wires.

ON TOPIC:-

If a Focus dispalys "------" as milage, should we care about it, or send it on it's way as it didn't come in for it?

[danielboom00]

thanks Meat-Head but the Focus displays the milleage but i want to correct, & i can?t read....

Sorry, late back for work, use the search botton, there is a IN-correction thread on here *THINK* it was our jumplead swinging friends, i uploaded a programme to IN-correct the milage, you will have to use the search botton.
