Thanks Shardul!
I have cutted those flex cables to reduce width, otherwise you cant fit them to slip-ring. It will not reduce any wires quantity! You need just two wires "+" and "-"
To change illumination colour i have removed all white leds and soldered red ones

Next step, cruise control?
Ps, perhaps I'm stupid, but what button enables the heating?

There is still no working solution for CC on MFSW unfortunately, but i hope that soon it will be!
Button for driver seat heating activates steering wheel heating as well

Hello from Greece
I have also a Fabia 5J (2010 facelift) with the black-green screen and I want to change to Maxidot IC. I bought a used 5J0920841E SW 0305 HW H04 cluster but I haven't found someone yet to have the equipment to fit it.
I tried on Skoda dealer but they couldn't program the IMMO and they also said that the IC couldn't recognise the can computer - the button on the stalk didn't change the menu on the screen.
I am looking for some recommendation on what HW and SW a DIYer can get to perform this process.
I have read the whole thread and others here in the forum but I can't buy a supervag.
So I am wonder if there is an alternative solution for SW and HW that can be done as a DIY.
Bests,
Theo

Hi Theo,
I think 5J0920841E should be good for your car. What is OEM number of your original IC?
Without IMMO adjustment it will not work!
So anyway you need special device for this...
I can do it for you (not for free), in that case you need to send both IC’s and one working key to me.

Thanks for the offer MaDwArLoCk
I don't have access on the original IC now and I forgot to take a picture when it was out.
I will have to plan it since the car will have to stay standing for the time the parts travel to Netherlands and back to Greece.
In general, is there an option I use a eeprom reader clip and a usb dongle to extract the eeprom and send the files to someone to extract the PIN from the bin files? (I will pay for the PIN oc)
Is this something feasible?

It’s more complicated that you think.
With simple words: Immo data indeed stored in EEPROM but it’s encrypted and decryption key is in the IC’s CPU.
So it’s not possible to extract immo just from EEPROM, this can be done only with a cluster itself...
We can discuss it, I’ll send you PM

i was told that the profile system set the individual setting inside MFA depending on the key used. E.g. you use the first key and set the MFA data based on your preferences, then the second key will have its own set preferences.
i had not yet try with my 2nd key
