 Since the air boxer does not have a temperature display, the superfluous cables must be protected against short circuits. With some skill and a very small screwdriver, the pins can be removed from the connector. Or you can also use a silk cutter to cut the wires close to the plug. Since the air boxer does not have a temperature display, the superfluous cables must be protected against short circuits.

 There are two ways to find out which variant you have. You can use a multimeter to measure where pin 9 of the instrument cluster connector goes. If this is no longer possible, one is then left with the option of following the track on the old film. There are two ways to find out which variant you have.

 When it is clear which pinout is needed, then the connector can be prepared. All that is required is to press the individual plugs into the appropriate housing. Care should be taken to ensure that the plug is properly inserted. Otherwise you could damage the DZM during installation. When it is clear which pinout is needed, then the connector can be prepared.
