Technical adjustments
I deleted the error, once it was shown as 'stored', and another time it disappeared, while still not displaying anything on the display and the odometer was flashing and there was no menu. And then the same error appeared.
Flashing odometer means something changed in the CAN configuration and proxi alignment is needed. As you cannot see the gears I assume the missing module is the gearbox module.
Can be caused by wiring or the module itself.
The best would be to swap modules between two cars to check where the problem is. Or further analysis of the wiring and the module would be required. Knowing FIAT I wouldn't believe a ground cable looking good is a proof it's OK.

This all started when we tried to set up a proxy. Currently, when it allows us to set up the proxy, it doesn't go through on the dashboard...
Regarding the module, as you can see, it connects to it. This is visible in one of the photos I sent earlier, and you can see the voltage there...
Unfortunately, I don't have another module to check. Regarding the grounds, everything looks fine where I checked. Can you suggest where else to look?
You can engage all those to check if they are working correctly. In the top right window it says what is the expected result.
That should confirm the gearbox is OK. Not sure if it will send the signal via the module though.
Ok, I'll try and let you know how it turns out.
Check also that you have all readings on the Parameters tab. Those should be at least partially read from the module.
Have you observed all the actions described in the Actuator tab? All the results are Failed, but as far as I remember you have to confirm manually the action had place. It's something that MES cannot decide on its own.
All the readings in the Parameters tab seem to be OK.
To summarize:
MES can connect to the gearbox module.
All the readings from the module are OK.
If the answer on the first line of this post is OK, all major / testable elements of the system are OK.
The fuses / relays are OK.
The battery voltage is OK.
The grounding points of the gearbox module and the BCM are OK.
The CAN wiring (?) is OK.
The digit indicating the gear disappeared from the speedo display due to a failed proxi alignment, which also made the mileage to blink.
There are some errors shown in MES, which got cleared, but then reappeared and are making the proxi alignment impossible.
The idea is to understand how to get rid of the errors. Which I think is crutial to get the proxi aligned.
You've mentionned earlier that someone was already playing with the speedo display. Do you have any information what has been done and why? If there's an error in communication between the gearbox module (which you've confirmed is OK) and the speedo display, perhaps this is the faulty module?
If I missed something, please add it below.

Just taken from another thread, unrelated, so I'm only quoting it FYI:
Hope it disappeared and never poped up again.

Apparently, everything I checked is okay... but during one of the actuator tests, there was a pop and the result is in the photo...))))))))
But as you can see, I've already taken it apart and replaced it. If you could suggest what actions to take after the replacement, I would appreciate it. I mean how to bleed the system...

Regarding what was done, we just wanted to remove the seatbelt chime and disable the fog lights when turning, And it wasn't possible to adjust the proxy, and of course odo still blinking, and the second time on the next day, menu and gear **** position that display on dashboard disappeared......
but all modules was good.....and voltage also
I've read in several threads that proxi alignment is not possible if there are some errors found by MES. No idea if concerns every error or only a part of them. I did the proxi alignment once on my van, no errors present prior to this operation, and it was successfull.
I'd start by resolving / eliminating all present errors and only then retry the proxi alignment.
For any present errors please create a dedicated thread putting the error name in the thread title, for it to be more obvious to the forum members.
