Translated from here: Tachoumbau Golf6 Basis in Golf5 Plattform (Golf, Touran, EOS, Octavia und baugleich) auch PREMIUM MFA

Requirements:

Instrument cluster: (List is not complete!)
All inlays of the cluster are equal and usable on all other casings. Exceptional the Passat 3C/CC, they have a deactivated immo-block. If you can reenable it, they also fit



suitable CAN-Gateway:
In this case there was a 7N0907530E used. Fully functional but there are CAN-Bus fault codes from the battery management, but they can be ignored.


Adapter from the old connector to the new one:
Connector (female) (32x) blue - 1J0972977D
Connector (male) (36x) black - e.g. unsolder from the old one or buy from zb here: carsystems.pl/adapter-for-pass…rument-cluster,id308.html



New Immo-Transponder:
Pre-programmed compatible to the new cluster

Programming-Tool:
In this case AVDI for getting the Immo-Data. They must be rewritten, a one-to-one-copy is not appropriate.
Or another tool which reads the true Immo-Data.



Let's start!

Desolder the connector from the old cluster and wire it correctly:

Pin assignment Golf 5 - Pinbelegung Tacho VW Golf 5 1Kx
Pin assignment Golf 6 - Pinbelegung Tacho VW Golf 6 - 5K1



Fit the cluster into the car, write the immo-data of the old cluster into the new one, match the key and the new transponder and done!

Additonal other control units have to be programmed from the old DDP (Display-Daten-Protokoll), which is used with CAN/KWP2000), to the new BAP (Bedien- und Anzeigeprotokoll, used with CAN/UDS. E.g. the RNS510, so the steering column switch and the display on the MFA is working.

Hi everybody

Sorry for writing in English, but my German is not very well And I don't want to use google translate, because it produces garbage
I'm working on retrofitting Tiguan Premium tacho in Golf 5, and I think I've found solution for electronic parking brake problem

In Golf handbrake switch connects pin 25 in tacho to ground.
In Tiguan, when brake is engaged, module connects this pin to +12V instead .
Tiguan tacho have few parts soldered differently inside, so we have to modify it:



We need to remove one resistor completely, desolder one and solder it in different place and add silicon diode 1N4148 (or something similar).
Diode can be omitted and replaced with wire, but I don't recommend that

After this is done, handbrake icon starts to work, but it's inverted (no brake - icon lights up, brake - no icon).
It can be fixed in EEPROM at address 2D0:
6C - Tiguan "inverted" brake
68 - Golf/Scirocco standard brake

And another small bonus at address 437
00 - (P) icon is used for handbrake on the left
02 - (!) icon is used for handbrake on the right (like in old Micronas red tachos)

All this work has been done in 5N0 920 882C tacho.

Enjoy! :piri:
