BSI replaced, now instrument cluster not working.
#1
Hi all, new here hoping to get some pointers on my Berlingo issues.

So I had intermitted stop light flashing at me. Thought nothing of it. Then a week or so later I came out to my van and it wouldn't start at all. Instrument cluster was lit up. Backlights constantly on with or without the key in. Headlights on, no gauges working and so on. Thought after reading up the BSI was at fault. So I pulled it out and it was completely full of water!
Sent that off to a company to hopefully have it sorted. They called me to say it's beyond repair, but offered me a replacement unit that's been virginised and would just require programming. So got the replacement unit, with the 4 digit key code.
Fired up Lexia, ran though the BSI instillation, programmed the key, told it what ECUs it had and so on. Turned the key and hey presto van starts!
- Now my instrument cluster is the same as it was before. Backlights on, all warning lights on, non gauges working and now displays line in the mileage instead of numbers, cluster staying on with the key out. Only difference is now the stalks work correctly i.e can turn headlights on and off etc.
I went into the BSI with Lexia and I can activate the gauges manually to test and they seem to work but that's it. I tried going back in and configuring what I could manually and it doesn't seem to matter what I do it doesn't make any difference.
For a brief moment and I mean like 2 seconds the cluster read 0's on the mileage and then went back to lines.
BSI reports communication fault [permanent] with instrument cluster, and after going into the instrument cluster it also shows a communication error with the engine ECU.

Am I looking at a fault cluster now or is my configuration wrong?

Would really appreciate anyone's thoughts on this.

Have you programmed your original VIN number into the new BSI? You only get one shot at that, or it has to be virginised again. Non matching VIN could be the issue. The cluster, BSI and ECU take the highest mileage among the three and copy it to the lowest mileage devices but I think they throw a fit if the VIN doesn't match. The fact it starts though, suggests it is matching between the ECU and BSI unless the vendor deleted the immobilizer check, so it could be the cluster was damaged when the BSI was full of water, not sure though.

Check that and let us know.

Have you looked at the fault codes for the cluster and BSI to see what's stored?

Do you by any chance have cruise control on that one? In Lexia/Diagbox if you switch on the Cruise option 2 with the original instrument cluster (no CC LCD) it comes the same, everything flashing and speedo/rpm not working with dashes for the mileage. Same would happen if you have Option 1 and the instrument cluster has the CC LCD.
I cannot quite remember where this was, but see my thread for the working cruise control, it's listed there. It could be that the instrument cluster with the BSI is a mismatch.

I hope you have traced the reason for the water ingress and have stopped it otherwise you will just boil another BSI

As Saskak says, maybe it's not quite configured properly. Can you post screen shots of the configuration screens? There's also a youtube video from HDI Tuning about setting up a BSI, not sure if you've seen that?
