General Retrofit LCD Instrument Cluster

General Retrofit LCD Instrument Cluster

So I installed a 2016 cluster in my 2008 F-500 lounge.
after scrolling through MES I found in the body control unit some settings regarding display (Cluster ?)
Is there any information regarding these settings?

:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: I found them today too, changed to '4 line' to have a look but the ECU wouldn't accept it and failed to save :unsure:
Also found that the byte 65 has no effect I changed it to 00 from 40, no change then to 20 no change. Left it at 00.
The ECO Index isn't working, and just bugs me. Each time I changed byte 65, I hade to reset km to miles.
 
just changed it to matrix 4 lines. all was accepted and works. but I see no difference.
What should be the correct setting for this?
 
Admire you guys for plugging a way at this,but all this electronic speak is doing me head in- just like all the stuff on changing the ICE it comes across as one big headache!.
Even Fiat cant get all there electrics to work properly all the time🤪 what chance you have god only knows!.
Thankfully im happy with the "old style" speedo display, and never turn the radio on anyway- dont want, or need "bluetooth" or the facility to talk to anyone whilst driving! so can leave well enough alone! .
good job to as therapy costs big money!, and i have got my Mercedes ml350 to get my electronics fix from!

My original setting was 'Comfort/1 Line'

From the MES Notes "This functionality is usually used by the convergence (Blue&Me) and radio/navigator modules. Vehicles with Blue&me module usually have 4 line displays."

..and I don't have a B&M, so I should have known better :unsure:
