Polar FIS not working on Sirocco cluster retrofit
« on: June 05, 2020, 04:40:16 pm »
Good Day.
I recently fitted a Sirrocco Cluster with std white dials to my mk5 golf now my Polar Fis doesnt work done the firmware update to white cluster.
When fitted it doesnt display and when i start the vehicle it fires up and dies.
Any help will be most welcome,
Thanks in advance

Are you saying as well as the FIS not displaying, the car fires up and dies?

If so you need to code the transponders in your remotes to the new cluster, this is not a job most can do; there are a few on here that can do it. I'd get that sorted before the Polar FIS, but when I upgraded to colour clocks, I put the FIS in update mode before and then updated after the cluster was fitted and it just worked.

Maybe the FIS is an issue with your loom that you used to convert the cluster wiring from 36 pin to 32 pin?

Good luck

The keys are coded to the cluster works perfectly without the FIS only when the FIS is fitted it starts and dies.
