US Fiat 500 2015 country code function unavailable

Post by ibrag474 »

Hello,

I am using Multiecuscan 4.6R1 and body module can setup country code function is unavailable. I imported the car from USA to Europe and want to change radio frequencies, but cant do it because of this. Is it a problem with MES version?

Two points.

1) You should find the country code setting is on the Body Computer Adjustments but this relates to how the Alarm system operates only.

2) To my knowledge and country specific coding done via the OBD socket, even if done by a dealer, will not be able to change the radio parameters. If it can be done it is most probably done via the radio's own diagnostics mode. There is also a strong possibility that the radio unit is MARKET SPECIFIC and a US one can not be made to function like an EU one.

You could of course ask your local Fiat dealer if it is something they can do.

You do not change the radio frequencies by intervening in the proxy.If you want to have European frequencies you have to change UCONNECT.Your now has the word Nafta and you have to replace it with one with the word ECE or EMEA

Frequencies could be easily change in uconnect5 if you have US 500e, done it in our 500e by myself with MES
