I just thought i'd attach a before pic from sunday.

Also, it appears the clock is only only late model high series ICC's.
Im Driving a turbo territory at the moment which has the clock displayed with the trip computer.

Some good interesting info there lukey. I seem to remember somewhere someone mentioning (vague I know) that the premium XR ICC can indeed display a clock, but its not a WDS option, and only ASL can enable it. I'm not sure what I'll do with my ICC and dodgy CD player yet but if I do end up sorting something out with ASL I'll definately be looking into this option. I don't really want the FPV roof clock as I think it looks like a cheap piece of tat icon_smile.gif


Well mate, if you do get a new or replacement CD player, I might have some interest in your faulty unit....

Clock looks very out of place there. I thought it was in the top right corner (above the A/C Off nessage in that pic).

Where it is however, there's enough room to split the trip computer 'box' and make a another one for the clock.

Hmm.

OK, learning more. The BEM/ICC swapout isn't a swap-and-go option. The BEM controls the Transceiver Lock Assembly and the Remote Keyfob receiver (The IR port above the screen) which implies that the BEM is keyed to your keys and remote keyfob.......which would require a WDS to reprogram.

Also, the PCM sends a 'challenge' to the BEM, which must respond with the correct values, or the car won't start. So a BEM replacement effectively immobilises your car in more ways than just one! A WDS tool, once again, is required to fix this.

The combined Sun Load/twilight sensor doesn't appear to be fitted to non ACC cars, so I'll have to find one of those. I'll be confirming this with a friend who has a MCC BF XR6T with auto-lights-off so has the Sun Load/Twilight Sensor.

Also, it now looks like the PCM has to be reprogrammed too, to send the 'engine coolant' and 'cylinder count' parameters to the HIM.

I can see that the instrument cluster is also on the CAN and is responsible for sending stuff to the ICC - like the Traction Control light and the ODO. Hey, that's way cool! The implication, however, is that I'm not sure if the Cluster has to be reprogrammed or is that data is coming across the CAN anyway.

The BEM also controls the auto-lights-on and the seat-memory, so with a a BEM/H (Hi spec BEM) these things could potentially be fitted as well - although you'd need an auto-lights-on switch on your indicator stalk, and the appropriate seats/switches to drive memory seats......

When Ford intergrate it they do a good job.
