Cluster

[DR. Tooth]

Hello All... Please help!!!

What do I do? I got a new cluster for my 2005 X5 4.4i and it immediately sets off the alarm and will not allow the car to start when plugged in. Also, it will prompt a CODE on the navigation screen and then it will unlock. The dealer put the code in and reprogrammed and it works... However, it is still asking for the CODE when I removed the cluster to put the chrome rings around the gauges. W
1. What is the code?
2. Do I need to unplug the battery to reset the alarm?
3. Do I need to removed the alarm fuse?
4. Is it possible to reset the system to accept the "Non-Original" cluster?

Thank you in advance,
Dr. Tooth
