So I need to swap out the cluster on my A4 B6. I bought a used cluster on Ebay and what I thought was the right cable. As it turns out it's so Chinese knock off POS. I was able to dump the cluster but not read the pin. I've tried Nefmoto (won't connect), VAG k pin reader (won't connect), VAG IMMO 3 (won't connect), VAG K-commander (connects but only to dump the cluster). I've hunted all over the internet looking for something that will extract the pin from my dump file, I will attach here if anyone can get the pin for me. Thanks in advance to anyone the can help me find the pin or point me in the direction of a program that will.

Assuming your ECU is still paired with the original cluster, you could get the SKC code from the eeprom:

Understanding/retrofitting immobilizer (Updated for Allroad owners/DEATH CODE)
ME7_95040 - EEPROM programmer

I know for sure the 3.0 AVK ME7.1.1 Eeprom can only be extracted in bootmode, which means opening up the ECU. Not sure about the 1.8T ME7.5

Not exactly sure what your issue is but you could also immo off the ECU.

Good luck!
