Roy: Is your answer only for the 97 JEOA, or all models? I've been participating in the same discussion at a french forum. The french claim that it is possible to avtivate the trip-computer, but for the fuel consumption functions the car has to have an air flow meter fitted! This partially makes sense to me, as the airflow, combined with air-temperature and, possibly, air-humidity, -all take part in the equation when calculating the injector timing and thus the amount of fuel used. As my car apparently does not have an airflowmeter(?), it must calculate injector timing in some other way, and is omitting to share fuel flow information with the BII? ? Anybody have more information on this topic? Will investigate further..

Thank you Tom. Continuity-testing it is then. When you say ECU-connector, do you mean the connector on the Sirius itself, or the one in the engine connection unit? I agree that the ADAC-functions is performed by the BII, as I seem to remember reading this somewhere in Dialogys. It would be interesting to know the differences between versions B1, B2 and B3. Results from testing will be posted, both here and at www.renaultbiler.no ! Roger

I'm quiet sure that your '97 does not have a BII. The BII was introduced as a update in mid 98(according to Renaultbiler ) to simplify the wiring.
To be absolutely sure, check under the mat in the passengers footwell. Under the plastic cover(remove the two plastic screws ) you'll find either lots of relays, or a black plastic box -the BII.
Renaultbiler and I examined a couple of defective Espace displays today, and found that the older version (Before BII) was produced by JAEGER, and the newer by Valeo. Jaeger put their logo in front of the display, to the right if I remember correctly. Theory is that if your display has 'JAEGER' printed on it, you do not have a BII. No logo/name = Valeo = BII. Would be nice if someone else checked their display to verify or bust this 'myth'
Back to what you asked about: As far as I know, without a BII, you either have a trip computer or you don't. No activation is possible. But I might be wrong...
E2 is equipment stage, B2 is BII-version(BII B1, BII B2 etc.)
