Radio controlled clock module on B8

[Audidua]

Hey guys, I've manage to fix the antenna. I purchased a new one and mounted it in rear bumper where it normally sits but for a 2-3 days nothing happened. Then I was doing some other coding with vcds and parallel with that I reverted radio clock sync interval on 10 minutes which is a factory setting. Later in the evening I had to go somewhere and when I opened car door there it was

I dont know why it didnt work on 2 minutes sync interval, very strange!

Great news , I have one question do you now see anything extra in mvb 2 in ins.cluster?

[Audidua]

Still nothing mate, there is no any other values in those fields, only mileage and fuel tank level. Channel 27 (I think) is now updated with sync time and other related stuff

Thanks ...

Another question , in MVB 27 data window 1 previously you had status as 000001 what does it say now?



Also if you hover over that data does a helper balloon appear with info?

Cheer!

[Audidua]

I think it says 000011 now but I'm not sure. I'll check that in a future and post the screenshots here.

Please do hover the mouse pointer over the data to see if a helper balloon comes up with some explanation on the values.

Ok!

Sorry, older Audis had a separate module pinned to the back of the cluster.

The antenna/module is behind the rear bumper cover on the left hand side. It is attached to the support bar - rather than the cover itself. It has a three pin connector and is wired directly to the dash on the 32-pin connector. There is an adaptation value in 17-instruments to say how often it updates; the value being zero if not fitted. I don't know if there is a bit to set in long-coding.

If you want to retrofit, you will need the following:

• 4B0 919 145 B - Receiver for radio-controlled clock
• N 104 128 04 - bolt (x2)
• 8K0 973 703 - plug coupler

You will also need a set of repair wires with the correct pins for the above plug coupler and the dash plug coupler (1J0 972 977 G).

• Pin 1 to dash pin 24
• Pin 2 to ground
• Pin 3 to dash pin 23

Let me know how you get on - as I might have a go myself.

Hi, which repair wires did you use for this? Am I correct in assuming you don't need the dash plug?
