    Default VU SS Dash upgrade

    Hey Guys i have run into a lil delema, i have a VU SS s2 it has the option 2 dash stock and i wanted to upgrade it to the option 3. i bought one out of a option 3 wagon v6 and the fuel guage doesnt work properly the tacho doesnt regester properly. now is there a way to reset the dash to the ute configuration or do i have to try and find a option 3 dash out of a VU maloo?

    I'm guessing the Wagon you got the level 3 dash from was a V6? V6 and V8 cars have differently calibrated tachos. Also the windows on either side probably won't work properly unless you upgrade your BCM first.

    you'll need to take the cluster to someone who has a tech 2 and get it reprogrammed to your car.
