Topic: New to FIS, can't recode cluster

Installed the module without any issues in my 2008 Audi A4 with RNSE. Tried to recode using VCDS (full version) and I get 4 fields in the instrument coding.

Software
Workshop
Importer
Equipment

The FIS install manual only shows the first 3. The coding listed in the manual is 16044 for software and 00000 for workshop. When I try to recode using these values, VCDS gives me a prompt that states the software coding must be 7 digits.

Any help on this would be much appreciated. Also do I need to go through the adaption process? I only have 2 wires from the FIS to the cluster. Thanks.

Hi,

for the A4 B6/B7 the soft coding of the cluster hasn't to be changed. But you have to add "telematics" to the installation list of the CAN bus. This is done in the adaptation channel 62 of the instument cluster.
Because you already have the RNS-E installed, I assume the current value of the channel 62 is "5". To enable the telematics, set the value to "15".

My coding is 23.

Ok, in this case you can set it to "31", though "15" should work as well.

Got it working. Thanks Stefan.
