anyone come across an issue with l3 clusters where once it's installed and the ignition is switched on the speedo jumps straight to 80 km/h and sits there (engine running or off but in ign position and stationary), cluster used to work fine, it's a s1 cluster into a s2, the stock l2 cluster works fine, all wiring and connections look okay, no broken traces on the l3 cluster, all other gauges working as they should, can't seem to find any info on the prob.
Another mod to help wire this in if you can't get the correct plug and wiring and you are competent with a soldering iron.
parts needed:
either a smd rework station or solder wick/braid to remove the old plug
multimeter so you can work out what wire goes where to install as per first post pinout
pliers so you can mod the right angle connector as it won't plug straight in, see pics below to see what i mean.
You may need a 1mm drill bit to put through the hole carefully to clean out any solder so the header will fit.
2 x 10 pin female double row plug (pc ide style)
2 x 10 pin 2.54mm right angle double row header
20 wire flat cable (multi colored would be best)
all the below pics are pretty self explanatory and show roughly how to do this.
using the pliers move 1 pin at a time through the plastic so it resembles the header on the left and lines up with the holes.
install a plug to space the header at the correct height on the board, if you solder it on pressed down into the board you won't get a plug on
once soldered in place
carefully use the plug to push the plastic on the header back towards the right angle as far as possible
this helps to make sure there is good contact when plugged in as the 2 rows are no longer in line.
note the board is at the top in the image below.
