  1. Kevin, I’ve followed your instructions on programming the cluster eprom. I’ve read the eprom off a spare cluster but what I got doesn’t look right,  no bytes showing vin. I think the binary code is corrupted. If you have it, can you send me a valid binary file for the new cluster chip, 93c86, on a 2002 Boxster s, manual shift. Maybe you know where to look for one. I’m hesitant to remove the original cluster and work with it. The original has an error reading oil level and I don’t want to risk creating more problems.

     

    thanks

      Here's the coding from a Carrera cluster with the mileage and VIN from my Boxster.  Please note that this is for the early style cluster that was in my 2000 Boxster.

       

      Before you try to use it, please confirm that you have an early-style cluster in your car.  I'm not sure if a 2002 cluster has the LED's or the LCD displays.  If it has the LED's it is a newer-style cluster and the programming is different.  Unfortunately, I don't have a file for the newer cluster.

       

      The document I attached attempts to explain the differences.

       

      Good luck with your project.

       What about contacting Shaun Merriman who you acknowledged in your article? I may have found him on Facebook and sent a message. Don’t know if he’s the right Shaun.
