DIY: Z3 Non-M gauge cluster to Z3M S54 Conversion

[JBanzhaf]

sorry for late response, yes you are right the main eeprom data has been lost with wrong reading. i am using dsp3+ programmer and the cluster for e36 m3. so i need your help to send me dump for both eeprom so i can flash it.

It looks like that’s a late model E36 non-M euro cluster. Unfortunately I don’t have any EEPROM dumps from any of those. I’m not sure if it’ll work, but I can get you an EEPROM dump from a US spec M3 cluster. Then maybe you can code it back to euro spec non-M using NCS Expert.

thank you for response, please if you can try to send me us spec m3 cluster epprom dumps. atleast my half job will be done.

Burhan, I just sent you an EEPROM dump from a US spec E36 M3 cluster. It should match the odometer mileage on your coding plug. So it should not have a tamper dot illuminated. Hopefully this works for you.

Thanks,
Joel

i tried with the dump but it is showing code eep2. also the guage is not working at all. what to do now. appreciate your help.

The EEP-2 fault refers to an issue with the internal EEPROM. It can be either a hardware fault, or an issue with the binary on the chip. In your case, it’s most likely an issue with the binary. Read the dump from the EEPROM again, and verify that it perfectly matches the dump I sent you. Sometimes when you flash these EEPROMs, it doesn’t flash all of the sectors correctly. This will cause this issue. If it still doesn’t work after making 100% sure that it matches the dump I sent you, you’ll probably need a dump off of an identical cluster. In that case, the dump I sent is not compatible.
