INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
The instrument cluster electronically drives the
speedometer, odometer, fuel gauge, and tachometer.
On the back of the cluster are two connectors.
The purpose of the instrument cluster gauges, mes-
sages, and indicator lamps is to keep the driver
informed about the operating condition of the vehicle.
If an abnormal condition occurs, the driver is
informed by gauges, an indicator lamp, and a chime.
The driver can seek service before damage occurs.
The instrument cluster has warning lamps and
indicators for the following systems that are located
within the message centers in the cluster:
• Airbag
• Antilock Brakes
• Brake Warning
• Front Fog Lamps
• High beam
• Left and Right Turn Signals
• Malfunction Indicator (ISO Symbol)
• Seat Belt Warning
• Skip-Shift (in Tachometer)
• Trunk Ajar
The message centers are part of the instrument
cluster and if found faulty or defective, the entire
cluster must be replaced (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/
INSTRUMENT CLUSTER - REMOVAL). If only a
Light Emitting Diode (LED) is burned out, then the
entire cluster must be replaced.
The instrument panel has a Gauge Pack that is
connected to the instrument cluster via vehicle wir-
ing. It contains:
• Coolant Temperature Gauge and High Coolant
Temperature LED
• Oil Pressure Gauge and Low Oil Pressure LED
• Oil Temperature Gauge and High Oil Tempera-
ture LED
• Passenger Airbag OFF LED
• Voltage Gauge (Battery Charging) and Low/High
Charging Voltage LED
The instrument cluster has a Liquid Crystal Dis-
play (LCD) for the following systems:
• Door Ajar
• Doors Unlocked
• Lo Tire
