Oh, or maybe it was when they flashed everything to latest istep, the car then complained that the switch didn't match? (Since they should've defaulted all the coding back to stock as part of the istep upgrade...) They threw shade over it regardless, and I'm trying to avoid that, at least while I still have warranty to worry about...

They gave me back my car with some errors for the Euro switch and warm/cold bulb checks, for the taillight. They didn't say anything about the errors, just handed me my key fob and I left. I recoded the car right there, in their parking lot, cleared the errors and everything was fine, since then. |

What is the value of coding the warm/cold bulb checks? I've left if alone as the car came with those setting "not active". Also, my understanding is that if you swap the OG cluster for a 'new' LCI cluster, the correct mileage will display on the new LCI cluster. If you have to swap the original cluster back in for a trip to the dealer, a) will the mileage update on the original cluster and b) when you swap the LCI cluster back in (this is now a 'used' cluster) will the mileage sync back up to be correct? I wouldn't be worried if it was off by the mileage to the dealer and back but it would still need to work.

ah okay, I was not clear in what I was asking!
I was not asking for the specific 'word' value to enter, I was asking what was the point, use, or benefit in changing the value of the hot/cold checks from nicht_altiv to aktiv! I presume you get a warning that the bulb is hot or cold but so what?

Incandescent bulb equipped cars have the hot and cold checks to make sure they're working. If you switch incandescent to led those hot and cold checks make the bulbs flicker.

I actually made back slightly profit, than what I originally paid for my ceramic controller.. : For the record, the ceramic controller worked 100% efficiently, with the exception of the coding error, highlighted below, due to mismatch equipment, that's not properly coded. He's a couple of random photos of the ceramic controller, retrofitted, in action: |
