            Should be the same assuming your diag port is wired.

                  I had this problem, the green lights would not clear grounding pin 7. Then I just changed odometer gears on my cluster and I inspected the board and two batteries. The batteries are good, but then I noticed the damage on the board because I used longer screws on the bottom center trim part, the longer screws went trough the cluster digging and damaging the board, this may be the common issue.

                    If it's not working you have a wiring issue, it should work no differently than when you had the M20.

                      yeah, somebody didn't hook up the wiring properly.
