search the forum for it. Its a free program and it could find an error to help with the cluster . Try cleaning the globe housing it might stop the currant. Also try looking at the board with a magnifying glass and look for fine breaks

best to use a windows based laptop, but up to you what you actually use. with the free software you don't get to use everything but you can get a temporary license [for 2/3 months] that allows you to make full use of the program. hava good read about it 1st so you get an idea of what it's about. compared to the 'B' series cars you may not be able to read everything in the AU [didn't try it out on me 'Ol yella [AU wagooon]. but it should prove useful.

Hey Mad. Wanted to suss out the body module on the TS50. Which cable did you buy? I found an Australian supplier (OBD-AUS FOR-USB) but they told me theirs doesn't work well with AU's.
