With Digital Instrument Cluster






DESCRIPTION
The electronic instrument cluster is a single module which contains an electronic speedometer/odometer/tachometer fuel computer, system scanner and electronic fuel and engine coolant temperature gauges. It also contains the following warning indicators:
^ Battery
^ Safety Belt
^ Brakes
^ Brakes
^ High Beams
^ Oil Pressure
^ Left Turn Signal
^ Right Turn Signal
^ Check Engine
^ Anti-Lock
^ Air Bag

OPERATION
The electronic cluster is operational only when the ignition is in the RUN position. The electronic vacuum fluorescent displays are powered by a non-serviceable internal power supply (illumination bulbs are not used). When the headlamps are turned on, the cluster will dim according to the rheostat position (except warnings which will not dim).

Each time the ignition is first turned from OFF to RUN position, the electronic displays of the modules will prove out by momentarily lighting all of the display segments and then momentarily turning all display segments off. After the prove out, the modules return to normal operation.
