    If you are good with soldering, an empty eeprom chip is 10 bucks or so.

    If you don't feel confident soldering, there's shops that can do it. Prices may vary a lot with these things. For reference, there's a place here in Germany that virginizes clusters for 100 quit.

    Thanks for the quick response, Altaran. If the Cluster needs to be replaced, I would assume it would need to be re-programmed to not have the tamper light on? Is this something a local shop can do? Or would need a specialty person/ shop to complete the re-programming?

    The easiest thing to check is if you have a friend that has a working cluster you can use to test if your car's wiring is ok.

    If you don't have access to another cluster, there are 3 power lines feeding it (pin 4 to 6 on the black connector), one is always on, one for accessory position, and one for ignition position. Check with a Multimeter if there's current at the respective ignition positions. Also check if the ground wire on pin one works.
    If they all work, your cluster likely needs to be replaced.

    E46 M3 Cluster Not Working

    As the title says, my cluster on my E46 M is not currently working. Initially when turning the car on the airbag light and e-brake light will turn on. After the engine turns on those lights turn off, no other lights, gauges, or mileage on the car works. Radio and Climate control works perfectly fine. I have done some preliminary searches for this issue and have not found a definitive result yet. The car will turn on and operate completely fine, issue seems to be only effecting the cluster. Hoping that someone has had similar issues and knows a resolution! Any help would be greatly appreciated!
