Type 2 Mult Function Display temperature - mikeB - 29-11-2013 I have retro fitted the type 2 multi function display to my 2005 2.0 HDi (M59 engine) Multispace Desire and everything works except the outside temperature display. I have the thermister but the wiring in the door area appears to be missing. I have searched this forum for info on this wiring but mine is not like those vehicles where the wiring is present. I am considering fitting the thermister directly to the MFD (positioning the thermister in a suitable outside location), and have tried to identify where to connect it on the MFD, without success. There are 5 wires connected to the MFD via the 18 way connector. They are:- Yellow. Marked T35 XE4 Green with yellow stripe. Marked 135 7215 Beige (sort of). Marked T02 B11B And a twisted pair of orange and blue which seem to be unmarked but I suspect carry the 12 volt supply. Does anyone have access to the wiring diagrams around the Type 2 MFD? If so which pins on the 18 way connector are connected to the thermister? The thermister is a negative temperature coefficient (NTC) device of about 2.5 k Ohms at 20 deg C. I bought this as a genuine Citroen part on eBay. All suggestions welcome.

I also could not work out how to get into the door mirrors to connect the sensor, otherwise I might have installed the wiring. However, I note from the wiring diagrams that pins 21 and 22 are connected eventually to 8 and 18 on BSI1. Is this pins 8 and 18 of the MFD2? If so then I can connect the sensor to those pins on the MFD via new wiring, positioning the sensor somewhere else other than in the mirror. RE: Type 2 Mult Function Display temperature - Rustscrat - 30-11-2013 No. The sensor has to go to the Bsi as it's this which sends the data to the display.:thumbsup: RE: Type 2 Mult Function Display temperature - saskak - 01-12-2013 (30-11-2013, 01:45 PM)mikeB Wrote:(29-11-2013, 08:00 PM)Rustscrat Wrote: Have a read of this. :thumbsup: Hi mikeB, Not too sure what you meant by not knowing how to get to the mirror, but have a look at how I got to the door mirror. Careful with removal of plastic cap on page 2, I broke a plastic peg inside, but fixed it with instant glue. Used sealant to glue/stick the sensor within the base of the mirror and the wire goes through a hole inside the door. Also made a bit of a mess with the lining trim of the door. Hope it helps.

That explains why I could not get any readings by connecting the sensor to the MFD. Will have another go.

I don't mind removing the door trim panel if I have to but didn't fancy removing it unnecessarily. I now know what to look for and to install in driver's door. I also tried to remove the lower mirror trim panel and broke the peg, but I stuck it back on with some silicone mastic. Ah well! Thanks again. |
