**flashtech** · 13th May, 2021, 08:43 PM

Hi everyone!
Need to replace instrument cluster on Golf 5, but need pin to code keys.
Can someone please read pin codes from those files?
Both clusters is VDO.

Thanks in advance!

I might say that eep is not enough. Must read Micronas, too. Or try reading it by obd with a propper tool.
If you don't have the tool, you might resolder the ipc, or do immo off in ecu.

2006/-6 and earlier Vdo
2006/6- and up - Vdo Micronas need to read flash also

If the 24C16 is from the original car. It would be smart to try to read out the engine ECU for PIN. Since I know most tools dont support this one.

The 24C32 should be alright.

With both PIN available. VCDS should solve it.

The same I thought, myself, he might read the pin code from ecu. But if he doesn't have the tools, all we know that VW IPCs have problems with cold joints and could start to resolder. Cheap and easy..
Maybe he wants to install GTI ipcs on his car, my oppinion...

Thanks for answers. Here is flash from ECU. Or i need to read something else?
No i just want to swap cluster because on old cluster screen is broken, and MOT cant be passed because of this problem. Second cluster was got for free thats the reason why its need to be replaced...
