Instrument Cluster
The VISION’S instrument cluster is a single unit of all-electronic guages and warn-
ing lights, which receive both analog inputs from such components as the fuel tank
sender and digital signals from components such as the engine and transmission
control modules. A centrally-located Message Display Center displays the odometer
reading, error alerts, and service technician diagnostic information. If the VISION is
equipped with hydraulic brakes, the instrument cluster contains 5 gauges. Buses
equipped with air brakes have two additional gauges indicating primary (front) and
secondary (rear) air pressure.
1. Speedometer. Indicates vehicle speed in miles/hour or kilometers/hour.
2. Tachometer. Indicates engine speed in revolutions per minute times 1000.
3. Message Display Center. Displays additional information to the vehicle op-
erator. See Message Display Center.
4. Fuel Gauge. Indicates fuel level in tank. Fuel gauge bank includes illuminat-
ed Low Fuel Indicator and Low Fuel Pressure Indicator.
5. Coolant Temperature Gauge. Indicates engine coolant temperature and in-
cludes an engine coolant temperature warning indicator.
6. Oil Pressure Gauge. Indicates engine oil pressure and includes an oil pres-
sure warning indicator.
7. Front Air Gauge. Indicates air pressure in front brake reservoir and includes
a low air warning indicator.
