In Topic: Can You Identify This Mod?

Ok chaps, an update on this one.

Took the battery out and found the connector to the Pressure Sensor and red plug. Removed both.

Tried to plug the Red plug directly into the pressure sensor (as I assume it used to be) but the plug doesn't fit?

I am meant to plug the red plug in directly and that is where it originally came from isn't it?

Or can anyone out there confirm a suspicion that not only is the Tuning Box an aftermarket part, but maybe some of these things come with a replacement Sensor with a slightly different plug?

The car is currently stuck in Limp mode :(

I took it out and it looks like it is all LEDs? (for the backlight) I can see where some have blown.

The thing misreports the speed and the Diesel too - the needles 'slip' after a few drives.

It's the left dial that lights up for me. The computer doesn't (text but no backlight) and the right side are dark.

All the LEDs work for the icons, though.

Is there no need for the replacement dash to be coded into the ECU or immobiliser anything like that?

Thanks.

I think it is one of these: http://www.tdi-tunin...50_kw_P318.html

Thanks to the nice cheesy man in the tight Polo shirt in the video at the end, I think I know what I need to do to lose the magic box.
