Visteon Instrument panel does not show outside temperatured

Hi,

I'm Italian and excuse me for not perfect English!

I have a problem with the instrument panel (Visteon) replaced on my Fiat Stilo.
I replaced the instrument panel on my 2005 Fiat Stilo (my2004) with in the instrument panel for Fiat Stilo year 2006 (MY2006)

Everything works except the outside temperature. Does not appear on the display.
With Fiat Examiner I have not solved the problem, the external temperature detected by the instrument panel is -40 ° C!

The outside temperature is detected by a sensor placed under the left mirror, is transmitted to the node NPG (Drivers Door), sent to the Body Computer with CAN-BUS. Finally, the Body Computer submit it to the NQS (Isntrumental Panel).

This last step fails in some way, because up to the node NPG (Drivers Door), the signal is correct, after the Body Computer sends a wrong value to the instrument panel.

Through Multiecuscan can I fix it?

Thanks in advance!

No, there is no such function in multiecuscan. However, I can check about your problem...
Please, send me a CAN Info report by doing the following:
1. Connect to your car with "CAN Info"
2. Disconnect
3. Click the red "Send Report" button on the main screen
4. Post here the exact date and time when you sent the report - day, hour, min

Yes, I saw the report. Unfortunately I don't see any problem with it. Everything seems ok.
This problem seems very weird. Give me some time to research about it. There is no option in the Body Computer or Instrument Cluster to block the temperature data....

Are you sure that Driver door node reports the correct temperature?

Yes, I am 100% sure, the node NPG (Drivers Door) receives the temperature correctly. Verified by Examiner.
In NQS node instead of -40 ° C :(
In addition, by mounting the instrument panel above, the temperature is displayed correctly on the display.
The problem should be the body computer that does not send the correct signal to the instrument panel, right?

Let me know if you find a solution!
If you need to buy your software there is no problem, just solve.

And congratulations for the excellent software! :)
Thanks

You mean that when you put back the old instrument cluster it shows the correct temperature?
If this is the case then the problem is ONLY in the instrument cluster. Did you do PROXI alignment on the new instrument cluster.

yes, mounting the old instrument panel temperature display correctly.
The new instrument panel is new and original Fiat, the problem is that is for another version of the Fiat Stilo: MY2006 and not for earlier versions.

The alignment PROXI I made ​​with Examiner, then I uploaded the miles of the old instrument panel and set the number of services.

Everything works perfectly, except that the outside temperature does not appear! : (

Just plug in the instrument panel, the display shows "--.-- C ° " should appear where the outside temperature, but does not appear and remains so.
Turned off and on the instrument panel disappears also the symbol and the space remains empty.
