One word..."insane"... Like an elite athlete that makes their sport look so easy.... you do the same.... making these projects look easy and giving viewers, like me, the confidence to "have a go".. love it ! Thank you again.
Its so cool that the actual milage of the cluster is going up, u should make a video how to reset the mileage, so you can see how much virtual miles you have driven!
That would be more harder, you need to desolder the eeprom memory, reverse engineer how the value is stored, and write a new value. A 0km doesnt mean its a 0 in the eeprom.
look up Suzuki XBOX car. Most the articles you find are shit and not informative, but when it was debuted I remember hearing it was wired to use the steering wheel, pedals, and shifter for sim control.
I am blown away by all of these projects and how well you make them, how simple you make them look and how easy they are to follow, which will be good for me soon when I get my PC soon
I've done it today..!!Fantastic work...Couldn't find where to put the protocol file cause i got the newest SimHub version and it is not in the same spot as the one shown in the video. For those who looking for it, it is in the arduino page/my hardware/multiple arduinos,you will see "multiple arduino settings,and the E36 device.Down below "Custom protocol" you press edit and the rest are like the video shown.
I have a sim rig based on an E46 dash with my old E36 gauges fitted that I have been trying to find info about this since the new year, this is going to complete my rig as I already have all the buttons working thanks to your button box guide. You really are a master of all things SIM!
@@mitchdorosan9969i think if you find the right wiring diagram you can connect it following this video. Just keep in mind what wire connects to which connector on e36, and just translate it to e46 using e46 wiring diagram. Sry if i was a bit unclear but i think u will get the point 😅
Would be great if you could go a bit more in depth with what easy pin does so we could use this guide for other clusters.. None the less, you are doing great God's work sir!
No, the E46 cluster is fully CANBUS for engine data. You could still use the cluster, with a CANBUS shield, as all of the messages are documented. But it would not work using this method.
wedophones.com/Manuals/BMW/1999%20BMW%20318ti%20Electrical%20Troubleshooting%20Manual.pdf page 152 you can find the pinout of the instrument cluster edit: by clicking on the numbers, you are redirected to the corresponding plug edit2: pages 153-4-5 is the list of the 3 connectors
Clearly a niche topic.. but I'm very impressed by the R&D the uploader clearly has carried out, the trouble taken to develop a simple, robust solution, and the clarity of the presentation. Awesome job. Sadly my interest is VAG VDO clusters, so none of this is of any use to me :)
I love your channel. Best sim channel there is. I would just like to thank you for the handbrake video. I made it and it works great. Thank you for your time and efforts!
I made a E36 cluster work 4 years ago, before Simhub even existed. So much work for nothing. I moved to Simhub since then. :) Mine has some extra features. The lights are also wired in with simple NPN transistors. Some of them are tricky. Turn signals and high beam need to be switched to 12V to work, the rest need ground signal to light up.
Hello! Do you have the Display client V2 as shown in the vid at 4:24? The links are old and I cant seem to find them, so I thought maybe you still have the file. Thanks!
holly thank you so much, i was looking for tutorial like this but i couldn't find it, i got lucky with your tutorial because i wanted e36 dashboard for my rig
Amstudio i thing that you should make a setup/room tour and show off all your stuff? and maybe start making some gameplay with your Sim racing so we can see some longer test of your gadgets
Hi! I just did the entire thing! Like literally and gotta say its the best tutorial out there 100% Working. But im Wondering how u got the Mileage working? Everything seems to work for me except the Mileage and i really want to complete it :D Props all around! No trouble anywhere!
wow well done , i have been looking for this from long time and i made so many research about it and finally you made it so great and easy , thank you so much why only BMW E36 Cluster ? is it possible to use the same steps you shown on other BMW clusters like E34 , E46 and E30 .thanks again and keep it up in the world of SIM.
No I tried it and the E39 cluster has incripted signals that go to 3 modules 1 main 2 abs 3 some other ithat i Dont Know Soo u might be able to but its too much work ;DDD Sorry for my English
Hello!! thank you so much for sharing and providing updated info in the description, I just got done making mine and its working perfectly thank you again!
Kind of similarly as to how some RGB keyboards flash red and blue when you're being chased in GTA V. There are developer tools for pulling telemetry data from the game. I'm guessing the Simhub program does that job for you.
lights and the turn lights is not include in the code. I Use this e36 cluster Setup from amstudio with my ETS2/ATS Game. @anstudio: can u Please Update the Setup with the Lights? :D alternativ only Code Change
This is so fucking cool. I just stumbled across this concept earlier today. I was watching another RUclipsr who I thought had installed an actual speedometer into their cockpit, but it turned out to be SIM Dashboard on their phone. But I kept looking, and ultimately found this video, because I was just thinking about it from a programming perspective, and I couldn't see any reason why one wouldn't be able to have a digital speedometer read in-game variables to determine its display. But holy shit, the hardware aspects are fascinating.
This is rad. I'm new to Sim rigs and pc racing. Irl I built a 95 neon sport coupe so I have a ton of spare parts left over so I'm definitely gonna be using my spare cluster on the Sim rig I'm building right now. I just need a dash and center console.
That's sick... If I ever get around to trying this I think I would open up the cluster and black out the tach numbers since they dont really mean anything anymore though.
Wow @AMSTUDIO :D Nice work on the cluster. If you add me on Discord at Melly#2179, we can talk about a newer version of the sketch and protocol (with working temp gauge). Cheers for the credit given and great work on all of your projects ;)

How can you make the turning signals walk and a Delights
Turning signals in a BMW?
Well, that's a first :D
THATS THE BEST THING IVE SEEN ALL DAY XD
Bro. Can you make guide for suzuki vitara 2019 gauges? If u want i will send you pictures
Is there Anyone that could help me
Guess who is going to their local car wrecker tomorrow to pick a cluster up? 👍🏻 thank you man!!
Julian Curmi you might as well cut the stock wiring harness out the car too, install will be easier and abit cleaner imo
Yeah, highly recommended. With my cluster (e36), I used the plugs from the harness, so that the cluster can be easily taken out for whatever reason.
Me too xD $17 for the cluster
TGWorkbench cheap, where
Budget U-Pull it
Finally RUclips recommends me something good
Its so cool that the actual milage of the cluster is going up, u should make a video how to reset the mileage, so you can see how much virtual miles you have driven!
Robin Balentina that would be awesome!!!!
That would be more harder, you need to desolder the eeprom memory, reverse engineer how the value is stored, and write a new value. A 0km doesnt mean its a 0 in the eeprom.
+Pascal Lafreniere you just need to download the bmw software "inpa".
Robin Balentina *kilometrage
An easier solution is to write the kms/miles when you get it and then just subtract that amount
Next - how to wire a car for your simulator.
Pog kinda did that, he connected his Aventador to his Xbox
look up Suzuki XBOX car. Most the articles you find are shit and not informative, but when it was debuted I remember hearing it was wired to use the steering wheel, pedals, and shifter for sim control.
@@MrDestin1969 yes and it was pretty cool :)
Don't tempt him 😂
Teslas already have this, just have to make sure you are in park so you don't get confused.
I've tried a couple of clúster and it hasn't been so easy as this one, good job man, always blowing my mind
I am blown away by all of these projects and how well you make them, how simple you make them look and how easy they are to follow, which will be good for me soon when I get my PC soon

i cannot belive that somebody really did this, i searched this project on yt for months, you're amazing dude
That's insane!
I wanttt it
heyyyyy I know you
Finally, a simpler way for me to do something I've wanted for years, THANK YOU
Even though I won't make this because I have no use for it, I *LOVE* watching people do such stuff
What the....
Sithhy, how are the Beamng mods going?
that odometer will see more action than it ever saw lol
You don't know the BMW drivers I've come across!
GFX Animations you would be suprised
I searched everywhere to do this and yet nothing makes it easier than 3 years old video nice job man just what I need 👍❤️
Finally!!! My e36 parts car is about to get raided.
prostreetz12 have you gotten your dash working yet I'm after help with mine as I'm not the best with computers but want my dash to work
Next up: how to use my bmw car's steering wheel and pedals on PC sim 2019 (totally legit not fake) GONE SEXUAL

so, E46 cluster will also work using the same instruction AM STUIDO provided?
@@mitchdorosan9969i think if you find the right wiring diagram you can connect it following this video. Just keep in mind what wire connects to which connector on e36, and just translate it to e46 using e46 wiring diagram. Sry if i was a bit unclear but i think u will get the point 😅
This is actually the coolest thing I've ever seen! Time to get myself an E30 Speedo xD
i have an e30 speedo, but how you can do it, you need a wiring diagram of the cluster, if you have can you send it?
Did you do it?
Tank you!!! You don´t know how long i´ve searched for a video like this!!!!!!!
This is awesome! My dream car has been the E36 M3 for a while now, so this will look good in my sim rig!

Would be great if you could go a bit more in depth with what easy pin does so we could use this guide for other clusters.. None the less, you are doing great God's work sir!
RPM = 2
Speed = 3
MPG = 4
Fuel = 5
Temp = 6
RPM and Speed use Tone signals, MPG, Fuel and Temp use PWM signals :D
MorGuux So would this be identical if it were a e46 cluster?
No, the E46 cluster is fully CANBUS for engine data. You could still use the cluster, with a CANBUS shield, as all of the messages are documented. But it would not work using this method.
Speed and fuel is not canbus but everything else is on e46.

Shame this didn't exist about 5 years ago when I did the same, would've saved me a lot of work.
Good job dude!

Hi, by any chance did you do a vag one? Asking as I want to do the same as in the video but with cluster from audi a4 b8. Thanks
This is the coolest thing I have seen in a while now
I love your channel. Best sim channel there is. I would just like to thank you for the handbrake video. I made it and it works great. Thank you for your time and efforts!
Thanks for sharing your video, I wired a hand brake for a PlayStation 1 when I was younger this blows my mind. Totally want to do this

Yes, I've been looking for it for a few weeks and finally you've done something about it!
BEEEEEEEEST
You deserve like 1 Mil plus subs! I don't know why more people haven't discovered you!
Used this with a 1999 honda civic cluster. I just used the existing plug ins and modified them the same. Works great!
Hi bro can send me details??
Hi
Can you share the plug ins
you make some amazing sim add ons, i would love to see a set up with all ur stuff or a set up tour by you
Goddaym, I know some people pursue the best sim possible, but this next level,
Bravo
Neighbor got the shock of his life when he jumped in his Beamer but other than that it is all going good.
Lmao
Wow man this is sick. And btw once this is ready for racing and stuff can you plug this in on a console and will it work?
Ive waited for a video like this from you, thanks 😃
Using the Economy meter as a boost gauge = GENIUS!
Dude you are awesome I swear🙋
holly thank you so much, i was looking for tutorial like this but i couldn't find it, i got lucky with your tutorial because i wanted e36 dashboard for my rig
Dope! I'm going to build it this week :D Thanks for the tutorial man!
This is honestly the coolest thing ever.
So much time we wait for this video 😍😁 ! Thanks for sharing us this 👍👍
Enjoy!

Someday a dof 2 comes out? Lots of thanks for your projects, you're the best.
Loool, im look for this so many time! Ty! Awesome
Loving your mod videos, tutorials and mats list! Subbed.
Amstudio i thing that you should make a setup/room tour and show off all your stuff? and maybe start making some gameplay with your Sim racing so we can see some longer test of your gadgets
Hi! I just did the entire thing! Like literally and gotta say its the best tutorial out there 100% Working. But im Wondering how u got the Mileage working? Everything seems to work for me except the Mileage and i really want to complete it :D Props all around! No trouble anywhere!
it's always fascinating what you do. but, now my question: can you make a turtorial with a truck speedo cluster? for ets2
Yes thanks so much! I have been asking myself how to do this for the past 2 years. I will definitly be making this in the near future!
Two questions
1.does the turn signals work and hazard lights?
2.does the dashboard lights work like the handbrake light, high beams, check engine etc?
I didn't rebuild that and I'm obviously not the uploader, but there's a reason he connected only like 10% of all pins.
With a little extra work, I’m sure you could get them to😁
The lights use 12V bulbs, you need transistors for them to work, and some extra code for the custom protocol.
@@gerzsone30 led lights could Be a solution
Who care about the blinkers lol this is a bmw cluster they were never meant to be used anyway lolllll
Your work gives me Eyegasm 🤩
Keep up💪🏻💪🏻
What are those arrows on the sides of the speedo and tach for? Never seen those in use on a bmw
Fuel use in liters
is this a blinker joke?
@@frozensolid8968 Yes, yes it is
It's only to pass the MOT. Nobody actually uses these anywhere else.
what an incredible skill, good job sir
Maybe do Logitech Shifter Standalone USB?
Oh god, thank you very much! looked for something like this for over 2 years. Time to go to my yard and remove one of e36 clusters from my parts cars!
I'm assuming this could be modified to use whatever dash cluster one can get for cheapest, right?
erica if it has similar wiring and pin out then it's a yes
To make sure that it is compatible, it has to be a non-canbus cluster (takes in analog pwm or tone signals through dedicated pins).
Picked one for 9£, toyota avensis cluster. Rpm meter goes up to 8 so its okay, make sure you don't get a diesel one...
wow well done , i have been looking for this from long time and i made so many research about it and finally you made it so great and easy , thank you so much
why only BMW E36 Cluster ? is it possible to use the same steps you shown on other BMW clusters like E34 , E46 and E30 .thanks again and keep it up in the world of SIM.
very very good.
just watched the video... speachless!
If I want to take a cluster out of something different like a Holden Astra, what should I know or look up
the wiring diagram for that specific cluster.
Jdm cars 😍😍😍. And this video is amazing man. Very good work
Could you do a eurotruck GPS display?
I mean, it's pretty easy to find apps on phone for that
Use sim dashboard for it u will pay 5 dollars and it will be enough u can put maps ans other stuff
I was waiting for such thing forever, thanks man, does the 350z works the same?
How to wire a fuel gauge from this cluster to PC ?
As former E36 owner - holy shit!!!!
Does it work with an e39 cluster ?
i am trying to figure it out at the moment. i'll contact you if i have a success :D
célian becquet if you know what the pinouts mean on the e36 cluster, just look for the pins with same function on the e39 cluster
No I tried it and the E39 cluster has incripted signals that go to 3 modules 1 main 2 abs 3 some other ithat i Dont Know Soo u might be able to but its too much work ;DDD Sorry for my English
The problem for the e39 is that it uses a can-bus system. That means its doesn't use one simple pin for rpm and speed.
Hello!!
thank you so much for sharing and providing updated info in the description, I just got done making mine and its working perfectly thank you again!
Amstudio If I email you a pin out diagram can you help me figure out what needs to get wired up?
You deserve so much more subs!
Awesome videos!
Wait, and how do those sim games actually give the RPM and speed data to the tachometer?
Kind of similarly as to how some RGB keyboards flash red and blue when you're being chased in GTA V. There are developer tools for pulling telemetry data from the game. I'm guessing the Simhub program does that job for you.

I mean real, just from car, not by joystick.
Oh
I didn't realize
Would be the same as his vid he did it in just use a normal stalk

How to do for ets2? (Blinkers work and more)
can be easily done with proper custom protocol
Truly amazing! There is some lag between ingame tachometer and that from bmw. Or is it just not synced in the video?
he even got the economizer to work so you can look how many mpg's you getting on the track lol
yeah but if you try to look how much youre using its either yes or no lmao
That's sick... If I ever get around to trying this I think I would open up the cluster and black out the tach numbers since they dont really mean anything anymore though.
I can do this hold my wheel!
Brilliant tutorial. This been on of my
To do projects. Thank you. Will this work digital cluster?
Wow @AMSTUDIO :D Nice work on the cluster. If you add me on Discord at Melly#2179, we can talk about a newer version of the sketch and protocol (with working temp gauge). Cheers for the credit given and great work on all of your projects ;)
Having the temp or fuel gauge would be even better, but is it possible ?
