Water In Fuel Indicator - Description

DESCRIPTION

A water-in-fuel indicator is standard equipment on all instrument clusters. However, on vehicles not equipped with the optional diesel engine, this indicator is electronically disabled. The water-in-fuel indication appears within the reconfigurable dot matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) display unit. The water-in-fuel indicator consists of a textual WATER IN FUELmessage which appears in place of the compass/trip computer information in the dot matrix display.

The dot matrix OLED is soldered onto the cluster electronic circuit board, and is visible through a window with a smoked clear lens located on the lower edge of the tachometer gauge dial face of the cluster overlay. The dark lens over the OLED prevents it from being clearly visible when it is not illuminated. The water-in-fuel indicator textual message appears in the same white color and at the same lighting level as the compass/trip computer information when it is illuminated by the instrument cluster electronic circuit board.

The water-in-fuel indicator is serviced as a unit with the OLED in the instrument cluster.
