Instrument Cluster / Carrier: Testing and Inspection: Diagnosis and Testing

Initiate instrument cluster self-diagnostic by depressing the odometer/trip reset button while turning the ignition key to the OFF and then the RUN position. This will cycle an electronic display segment check and illumination in sequence of all CCD bus activated cluster warning indicators. There are four Check (CHEC) functions:
1. CHEC 1, checks the gauges.
2. CHEC 2, checks the warning lamps.
3. CHEC 3, checks the odometer/trip meter.
4. CHEC 4, Transmission Range Indicator for the automatic transmission or the autostick transmission.

If the diagnostic procedure determines that a replacement of an instrument cluster component is required, refer to the proper component removal procedure.

CHEC 1

CHEC 1 - Gauge Display:

1. If all gauges fail to move, replace Cluster Printed Circuit (PC) Board.

2. If lamp is not OK, replace lamp.
3. If lamp is OK, replace Cluster Printed Circuit Board.

If any V/F segment does not light, replace Odometer/Transmission Range Indication.

CHEC 4 - AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION

CHEC 4 - Transmission Range (VF) Display - Automatic Transmission:

Transmission Range (VF) Display - Autostick:

If any V/F segment does not light, replace Odometer/Transmission Range Indication.
