2018 Digital Cluster Installation Guide

I got mine thru Hellhorse back in early January... It took 10 days but that was with 2 weekends and new years eve and day to contend with... I figured it was a 5 day turn around, but that was 2 months ago now...

Hi everybody.

I just received the parts for the swap. My car is RHD so I purchased the other bezel HR3Z-63044D70-AA.

Are you sure it is the right part number ? Because I receive the bezel RHD for the 2015 model. After searching on google, it also come up as HR3Z-63044D70-BA but on my packaging, it clearly says HR3Z-63044D70-AA so I am a bit confused and will have to return the item unfortunately...

Also when trying to write ABD, I get the error "service procedure has been interrupted". So after looking in the forum, I have installed different versions of Forscan but no positive news.

I have sent the logs to forscan and will see how it goes.
2019-03-05 17:23:09.003 [Bluetooth channel] Unable to write - socket is closed
2019-03-05 17:23:09.003 [STN Adapter] Error on writing data!

If you have some explanation for everything, that would be great

I’m not sure on the bezel. What did you get exactly? They sent you the wrong part maybe?

Also you need the newest FORScan beta. There is a link in my spreadsheet.

I wonder if someone bought the Digital IP Bezel, swapped them out, and then returned it for a credit. The person checking it in, did not realize that it was the wrong bezel, and just shipped it back out... Or it was just marked incorrectly..

I tried the one you mentioned in the spreadsheet too but I still get the same error :/

That's the part I received apparently

Hi Mqrko,

The RHD Bezel I got is JR3Z63044D70 AA

I am sorry, Sam is not to blame, I am because I gave him the part no.

Thanks. I'll order that one then.
I am not blaming anyone, just reporting the information

Forscan sent me this file and it worked

http://forscan.org/download/FORScanSetup2.3.21.test20190305.exe

I have found one issue so far. On the reversing camera, the lines showing the car have disappeared.
I have activated the RPS, maybe it is from another module?

 

[breeves002]

Glad the file works.

I've seen that happen before but not sure if anyone came to a conclusion of what causes it. It is not related to the cluster. You have tested it with the engine running, right?

My steering "enhanced" lines also went missing... And I have tried it running and not running... Last summer, my lines went missing, then they magically came back... Try going into settings, turn both the enhanced backup option, and the backup camera delay on or off... then go back in and turn them back on, see if that helps.

Go into forscan and reset the APIM and BCM modules. That ‘should’ get your active reverse lines back.

Works better with engine on indeed

Also the Cruise Control is greyed in the options, so does this mean I screwed up the values in Forscan ?

Is it typical for these clusters to arrive in remanufactured labeled boxes?

 

[rum_punch_ruby]

Has anyone noticed if the digital cluster uses more battery power than the analog since installing?

Yes you probably enabled adaptive cruise when you have regular cruise.

Is it typical for these clusters to arrive in remanufactured labeled boxes?

Yes they all do but they are in-fact brand new.

Uses more battery? I'm sure it does slightly considering its a full LCD screen and much more processing. Why are you asking this question though?
