Hi. I bought the original set (2 headlights, 2 adjuster and abarth cable harness). I build in everything. I have to plug 3 cable from the right lamp (f10 connector 9-11-12pins) to Body Comp (M1A 10pin, M1B 28 and 35pins).
My big problem is, I have a 16v Multijet 150CV and my BodyComp is different. The original abarth plug has 2*20pins. I didn't have any 40pin plug on my body so I need a wireling diagram, nut eLearn also shows the 40pin connector..

Maybe i don`t understand. In both pictures i see a 2x20 pins connector, only the plug shape is different. Can you explain in more detail what the problem is?
 
Can't see if there are 12 or 13 rows of 4 pins in the BC on the left. It appears to have 2 x 48 or 52 pin connectors. Never seen that on a Stilo BC before. Both the 2003 and 2006 Stilo eLEARN only show 40 pin connectors.

What is the part number of the BC on the left?
.
 
I have fixed it. My body comp is from the 2007 bravo so the connector is 52pin.
I looked the bravo's eLearn and connected the 3 cables. Speedo, K can, and +15 lines as the bravo. It works fine so thanks all.:worship:
 
Any chance to post some pictures of the conversion you made? ;)

You say you used a Bravo body computer, that does mean that the Bravo has the same CAN protocol as the stilo?
 
Exactly. For late version of stilo(2006-2007) the factory used the a new bravo's BC. I have a friend, his car is the youngest Stilo which has ordered int the factory, and it has also the same BC. In MES I tried to connect to Bravo '07 Multijet 16v and it worked (ECU[I have the same edc16cf4] and BC also).

Darven: Here's a photo from mine BC+Fuse box. But the a partnumber it shows it is for just the FB. To see the BC partnumber, I have to disassemble the FS and the BC, because it is on tha back of the BC.

Another problem. Everything working fine. BUT. When I connected everything the speedo didn't flashed for proxy needed. In MES I can't see the self-leveling option and the symbol of the headlamp height on the dash didn't disappeared.
Any ideas? My friend has this problem also with his croma.
 
Are you sure the BC and the CAN-bus node in the Xenon headlight are using the same CAN protocol? I assume that if all other systems are working fine, the protocol is the same between the stilo and the bravo.

Maybe the CAN connection is not functioning, are you sure you connected the CAN high / CAN low correctly?

Can you perform a proxy alignment? Maybe it shows up after the alignment.

I personally think that the CAN connections are wrong....
 
But if the can network is not correct how can it work correct? And all the function is operating. If the can is wrong I can't connect to the headlamps.

Ok that means the CAN connections are good. What options do you have on the tab 'Korrecio' F7 tab?

There is the function for the calibration of the system. Maybe you can try to calibrate the system and hope the message will disappear?

Also do you read an error in the engine ecu or dashboard for the headlight level?
 
Did you also install the leveling sensor, i think it's attached to the rear suspension frame.
This is second hand info I'm telling you, so don't bite my head off.
 
There should be one sensor on the rear axle and one on the front right lower suspension arm. From the MES screen above, it looks like it is reading voltages from both sensors.

To calibrate the system, you will need an interface or adaptor lead that connects to pin 12 of the OBD socket.

Yes I had install the two adjuster and made the calibration. The whole system is working fine. So that's why I didn't understand that the Can info not shows the self leveleling option and the proxy alightment also. When the system was installed the speedo didn't flashed. This is what happened to my friend with his Croma. Maybe to see this option need to turn on with an Examiner?
 
If the system is properly installed you should see a node in the Can Info.
If the node is not present you need to do a proxy alignment
 
I don't think that HID Xenon headlights are a NODE on the CAN, so the odometer wouldn't flash, and they wouldn't need Proxy Alignment.

This is the list of NODEs I have:

NAB Airbag ECU
NAC Addaptive (Radar) Cruise Control ECU
NAD Additive Addition
NAG Driver Seat
NAL Alarm ECU
NAP Passenger Seat
NAS Steering Angle Sensor
NBC Body Computer
NBS Electric Steering Lock
NCA Automatic Gearbox ECU
NCD CD Changer
NCL Climate Control ECU
NCR Selespeed Gearbox ECU
NCM Engine ECU
NFR ABS ECU
NGE Electric Steering ECU
NIS Telematics
NIT Connect Nav Unit
NPE Passive Entry ECU
NPG Driver Door ECU
NPP Passenger Door ECU
NPS Sliding Door ECU
NQS Instrument Panel
NRCT Radio Remote Control
NRR Radio Reciever
NSC Multifunction Display
NSO Electronic Speedometer
NSP Parking Sensor ECU
NSS Steering Angle Sensor
NTA Sunroof Control
NVB Luggage Compartment
NVO Steering Wheel Controls

If it wouldn't be connected to the CAN network then you would have no idea of any error.
 
The problem is : when we connected everything the BC didn't needed proxy, and the speedo didn't flashed. But I can connect to the headlamps, and they using K-line so the a BC connection is OK. Thats why I thinking that to enable the NFA is needed Examiner.
 
Do a proxy alignment.
I think it only flashes if a node is removed ... might not flash if you add a node... but it would need the proxy alignment in order to use the new node.
