    Cool Service counter reset info

    OK I found this out today..we all know that when you have a dealer service they put the car on the examiner to reset the counter..but up it will pop again in 12 months time "SERVICE DUE" you can delete [shut off the counter instead of resetting it which is just as well from what I was told today ..after 8 service resets of the counter the whole cluster will shut down automatically and you will need a new cluster....this is how its been built ..thank you so much fiat..by shutting it off it wont automatically shut down after the 8 year period.. gottcha fiat.. just another way fiat can make some more cash out of you..

    AFAIK the cluster has a set amount of service tickets, when you send the command to the dash cluster it knocks off these tickets in sequence. You can delete them all in one go and thats it - it will never bother you again.

    Ive knocked off my next one as a test, dont want to delete them all.Yellowstilo on FF knows his stuff on this as he has reverse engineered some of the commands the examiner sends over CAN. He has deleted all his tickets in one go so it never moans anymore. Cluster still works though
