Dashboard display surprise when changing the car battery

[bransoj]

more and more new cars are coming with all the options fitted from the factory, BUT you pay for the ones you want to use or want activating, and dealers are able to do this as well as factory , BMW is big into this now .

Think i read something the other day about VW making it possible you can add functions and remove stuff as and when you need them on their ID range, things like their Tesla style auto pilot and alike. So if you in the main use them around town where you wouldnt use auto pilot you dont pay for it but if you go on a longer journey you could pay a fee to enable it for a specific time period.

To give you an idea what is possible. I don't known if Plasma can do the same on your side.

We have recently finished writing our own software to enable/disable menus.. I found a few hidden from the normal files which some other programs wont pick up at all

So far we can cover 2013.5-2017 clusters with approx 17-19info menus, and 6-8sports menus, on the insignia b's theres approx 31info menus and 11sports menu.. the 2019 insignia B with the white needles use a different protocol for the audio information but we should be able to cover them with a simple new file which i will create

Hi
my car has that 8” tft display how do I know if it’s : mdi/mdi2/vx nano ? I’d love to be able to access the hidden menu like opc/vxr thanks

Mdi/mdi2/vxnano are diagnostic tools you plug into the obd port (rather than anything within the cluster). These tools enable remote coding by plasma.

its not just the MDI2, you will need the software too, right Dean

[plasma]

yes and no... some software to be installed as explained but most of it is online subscriptions plus we have our own custom programs to deal with most day to day stuff

As a new member, the pm facility doesn't extend to you yet
