HOW TO: Access the MFA Secret menu
« on: 28 September 2005, 14:59 »
HI,
 quick thread as I am very intrigued. I know how to get into the secret menu on a mk2 golf gti MFA.
But does anybody know what all the options are. The only one I know of is the digital speed reading which is the second along. Have searched loads on the internet but cant find anything.
Are all the others CO2 readings and fuel to air?

Please help I fear I may not sleep LOL :smiley:

Thankyou all

Hold the button in, turn your ignition on, off and on again

position 1:
Default: Engine code
1: Land code
2: Speedometer
3: Upper rev limitter
4: Lower rev limitter
5: Decelaration fuel pressure
6: Display test

MFA switch on position 2:
Default: Test programm of programmed bytes (checksum)
1: Intake Vacuum
2: Digital rev counter
3: Fuel usage (like normal)
4: Signal from speedo sensor
5: Oil temperature (like default)
6: Ambient temperature (like default)

Edit: See my last post on page 2 for an alternate list I got from another website!

How can I wire up so it shows digital miles all the time.. 

Is there a take off somewhere that I can attach to a digital gauge to show this all the time ?

Whoa now boy what makes you think I would know these things :grin:

Sorry I haven't a clue how you would do this, when you say digital miles which one were you refering to?

Sorry Rubj,  you just sparked a mod idea in me.

If the mfa is capable of showing Speedometer as digital in that MFA menu you just rattled off so easily.

I was thinking to myself it would be cool to display this all the time with an aux gauge.

Hmm, no idea how to get that but I assume it is read from the little sensor screwed into the back of the speedo, if you knew someone who is a whizz with electronics and decoding signals it shouldn't be too dificult.

Plus there is the digitial speedo sender that was fitted to the MK3, but the troble with that is it goes where the normal speedo cable goes so you would loose the speedo drive.
