GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The standard Camaro instrument cluster assembly con-

sists
of two
circular units which house
the
speedometer

and fuel gauge assemblies.
The oil
pressure, left-hand

directional
and
brake warning indicators
are
located
in

the face
of the
speedometer bezel while generator,
tem-

perature
and
right-hand directional indicators are grouped

with
the
fuel gauge unit.
The
high beam indicator
is

located between
the
cluster bezels.

A special instrumentation package
is
available with
the

eight-cylinder engine
and
center floor console combina-

tion.
The
special cluster includes:
a
clock; coolant

temperature,
oil
pressure, fuel
and
ammeter gauges,

mounted forward
on the
seat separator console;
a ta-

chometer
in the
right circular housing
of the
dash
in-

strument cluster; and
a low
fuel level indicator replacing

the
oil
pressure indicator lamp
in the
instrument cluster.

The instruments
and
gauges,
may be
serviced only

after
the
instrument cluster
is
removed from
the
vehicle.

Indicator
and
cluster lamps except
for the
high beam

indicator
may be
replaced without removing
the
cluster

assembly. Partial cluster removal
is
necessary when

replacing
the
high beam indicator due
to its
proximity
to
the upper brace
rod
anchor plate.
The
bulbs
are in-

stalled
in
plastic sockets which lock into
the
cluster

housing and make contact with
the
printed circuit.

A
low
level fuel warning system
is a
special feature

available with
the
floor console gauge pack. This
sys-

tem includes
an
indicator lamp
in the
dash cluster and
a

semi-conductor unit senses
the
change
in
electrical
re-

sistance
of the
fuel system circuitry
as
variations
in

fuel level occur.
The
sensing device
is
replaced
as a

unit
if
found defective.

The brake warning light serves
a
dual purpose.
It

functions
as an
indicator when
the
parking brake
is ap-

plied
and
also
if
there
is a
malfunction (loss
of
hydraulic

pressure)
in the
brake system. Switches which provide

the signal
to
operate
the
light
are
located
at the
parking

brake assembly
and at the
brake master cylinder
in the

hydraulic lines. Service
of the
brake pressure differ-

ential switch unit
is
covered
in
Section
5 of
this manual.

Regular maintenance
is not
required on
the
instrument

cluster
or its
components other than maintaining clean,

tight electrical connections, replacing defective parts

and keeping
the
speedometer properly lubricated.

DEPRESSED PARK 2-SPEED WIPER

CHEVROLET

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The Type "C" two speed electric wiper assembly (fig.

74) incorporates a depressed park type (blades park

against windshield lower molding when the motor is

turned off) motor and gear train. The wiper has a com-

pound wound 12 volt motor and a gear box section con-

taining the gear mechanism and relay control. The motor

armature is fitted with a worm gear which drives the

main gear assembly and crank arm.

The relay control, consisting of a relay coil, relay

armature and switch assembly, is located in the gear box
section bid controls the starting and stopping of the wiper

through a latching mechanism (fig. 75).

An electric washer pump is mounted on the gear box

section of the wiper and is driven by the wiper unit gear

assembly (fig* 75).

The overhaul procedures for the wiper are broken down

into three major areas: The motor section, gear box

section and washer pump section. Each section maybe

serviced independently of the other.
