Javalosrealestate says:

My email is javalosrealestate@yahoo.com, first you need to check the spark
plug make dure those are the correct ones for ur car, the vw’s don’t work
the same with just any spark plugs , buy bush, than replace the cluster,
(Question for you,only the gas gage don’t work ? Does it have check light
on,

Javalosrealestate says:

When you having problemd with your car , star with the less spenceive
parts, first check fuses, than Relays,than the part it self. Lots of times
changing fuses, relays, will fix the problem, and at the shop will charge
you for the part plus labor.. Alway check the ground conections as well
lots of times they get durty and couse problems,

Javalosrealestate says:

And the problem is????

Gef da thef says:

how did you program it to work ? mine wont start ?

Javalosrealestate says:

No need to reprogram it, just make sure when you buy it, tell them what
kind of car you buying it for give them the #8 number on your vin, and they
will reprogram it for you, and you just put it in you car,

Please help: I drive a 99 passat 1.8T, First i noticed my temp gauge was
not responding at all, though car not overheating, i got a local technician
to to check the temperature but he ended up destroying the ECU. I have
replaced the ECU with an exact type (but 2 months older than the damaged
one). The Engine started and idled nicely but the car jerks when on
drive/reverse/park positions. Noticed Spark plug #3 not firing. fuel guage
inside the cluster not working as at now. Please i need help.

Good video…thanks for your info..I have a 96 Jetta with a bad speedo… I
appreciate your taking the time to show how easy the repair can be !

i got ripped off by a guy that swap clusters the car has more than 200k and
he installed one with 120 k, i never knew i was this easy to tamper the
mileage on a jetta

systemalive says:

Massive respect for uploading this. Youve shown me how easy it is to access
the cluster. Until now I was dreading the job. One question, I have a 1999
VW golf TDI and will be swapping a faulty cluster (warning lights blown),
like in your video does the replacement cluster just go straight in? No
need to reprogramme it with the ECU or anything? Thanks again

Tahir Ahmed says:

Nice job brother….we appreciate your effort….please can you furnish me
with your email add i have got some interesting questions please.

Eduardo García del Val says:

Thanks a lot. Tomorrow I’ll try it

therivalryan says:

Just remember that when you swap the cluster like this the mileage from the
replacement cluster will also be transfered, in this e.g. he took about 10k
miles off the car! hehe. You can tranfer the old mileage onto the new
cluster but not diagnostically

B Richardson says:

What website did u find your cluster? Great video by the way

Jim Holahan says:

Java – thanks a million for the video. Will save me BIG bucks. One thing –
my little trim piece isn’t coming off as easy as yours. Feels like if I
pull harder I’m gonna break it. Any suggestions? I have an ’02 GLX

Javalosrealestate says:

How did you found out the exact miles the car had?

drozdo27 says:

Thanks for video. good job 🙂

puff0086 says:

nice job…thx!

Javalosrealestate says:

Hope this may help please let me know how did it go..

Javalosrealestate says:

I don’t Remember on what web, but I look in amazon.com there is lots of
webs that offer rebuilds.

Javalosrealestate says:

I bought a rebuild on line, you need your #8 letter or number on the vin,
to make sure you get the correct one. I will put the webside soon as I will
find my invoce, I pay $60, free shiping,

Javalosrealestate says:

at the auto parts you may buy a mechanics manuel book, Start with the
sample steps conect the car to a scaner clean any code that may have. Check
gas filter, may need replace.check air filter,or spark plugs, rememver the
car needs 3 thing to start,Air,gas fire,(spark)

Javalosrealestate says:

You should had it program when you bought it.

Javalosrealestate says:

(flat) pull up it will come off
