GENERAL DESCRIPTION
INSTRUMENT PANEL AND GAGES
INSTRUMENTS
Instruments consist of fuel gage, temperature
The instrument panel on most cars is a sing,e unit indicator light, generator light, oil pressure indicator
design and all parts attach to the main instrument light, and speedometer. See Section 9F for optional
panel with clips and screws. To service the instrument Gages and tachometer. Service on instruments
panel and components see on-car service information, can be obtained through authorized repair stations.
However, knowledge of instrument circuit checks will
PRINTED CIRCUIT
All models are equipped with printed circuits
which supply current to most instrument panel lights
and instruments. These circuits are made of copper foil
which is die cut and bonded to a polyester base film
(usually mylar). The printed circuit electrical power is
supplied by a connector containing several wires, as
shown in the instrument panel wiring harness
installation instructions. The connector also helps
retain the printed circuit to the speedo cluster. The rest
of the circuit is retained by additional connectors (if
used) and snap-in
bulbs/sockets. For individual
printed circuit diagrams, see Section
8A-80/8 1/82/83,
'Instrument Panel'. help
in determining if operating difficulties lie in the
instrument itself or its related circuit.
Instruments have been designed for easy removal
by elimination of separate wiring. With the wiring
provisions integrated with the instrument panel wiring,
the instruments can be removed after removing the
trim and lens.
SPEED SENSORS
There are three speed sensors currently in use:
1. PINION GEAR; used in mechanical systems
2. PHOTO SPEED SENSORS; used in mechanical
systems
3. PM GENERATOR; used in electronic systems

INSTRUMENT PANEL. GAGES & CONSOLE 8C-3
tank only when ignition switch is turned to "ON" or
"ACCESSORY" positions.
When ignition is turned to "OFF" or "START"
positions, the pointer may come to rest at any position.
The letters
"E" and "F" on the fuel gage are used to
point out direction of indicator travel only.
TEMPERATURE WARNING LIGHT
The engine temperature warning light is
controlled by a thermal switch which senses engine
coolant temperatures.
When the ignition switch is turned to "START"
position, a test circuit is closed and the light will come
on to indicate whether the light is functioning properly.
It is important to note that with low boiling-point
coolants (such as plain water) the temperature light
may not come on even though the coolant is boiling.
GENERATOR WARNING LIGHT
The generator warning light, located in the
instrument cluster, should come on when the ignition
switch is turned
"ON" and engine is not running. If
not, either the bulb is burned out or wiring to generator
has an open circuit.
When the generator voltage output becomes
greater than the battery voltage, the
"GEN" light
should go out. This does not, however, indicate
whether the battery is being charged or if the voltage
regulator is functioning properly.
Checks of the charging system are covered in
Section 6D, 'Engine Electrical'.
ENGINE OIL PRESSURE LIGHT
The engine oil pressure warning light is mounted
in the instrument cluster and controlled by a pressure
operated switch located on the engine block. When the ignition switch is
in the
"run" or "start9' position, the
oil pressure light should come on. If not, the bulb is
burned out, there is an open circuit between the bulb
and the oil pressure switch, or there is an open circuit
between the oil pressure switch and the choke heater.
After the engine is running, the oil pressure light
should go out when the oil pressure reaches the correct
specification. If not an oil pressure problem, a faulty oil
pressure switch or an open circuit from the choke
heater fuse to the oil pressure switch is indicated.
"SERVICE ENGINE SOON" LIGHT
All cars have a "SERVICE ENGINE SOON"
light mounted in the instrument cluster. The
"SERVICE ENGINE SOON9' light should come on
during engine starting. The light may stay on
a short
time after the engine starts.
If the light comes on while
driving, service to the emission control system may be
required. See Section
6E and Section 8A-80,
'Instrument Cluster', for complete diagnosis and
wiring diagrams of the
""P;RVICE ENGINE SOON"
light circuit.
UPSHIFT INDICATOR LIGHT
If your vehicle has a manual transmission, there
may be an
''Upshift" light on the instrument panel.
This light is illuminated to indicate optimum shift
points throughout the range from optimum fuel
economy to optimum performance. When this light is
on, shift your transmission to the next higher gear
range if conditions permit. For fuel economy,
accelerate slowly and shift when the light goes on. For
performance, accelerate as desired and shift when the
light goes on.
Safe operation of the vehicle may require shifting
differently than indicated by the "Upshift" light to
adapt to weather, road or traffic conditions.
Downshifting one or more gears may be required
to keep the engine running smoothly or to maintain
satisfactory performance.
DIAGNOSIS
Diagnostic information for all instrument panel
electrical systems is found in Section
8A-80,
'Instrument Panel'.
CAUTION: When removing or
installing any electrical units,
disconnect the negative battery cable
to prevent possible short circuits
which could lead to personal injury
and/or property damage. When
replacing a speedometer or
odometer assembly, the law requires the
odometer reading of the replacement unit to
be set to register the same mileage as the
prior odometer.
if the same mileage cannot be
set, the
law requires that the replacement
odometer be set to zero and a label be
installed on the driver's door frame to show
the previous odometer reading and the date
of replacement.
GENERAL BNFORMATlOM
INSTRUMENT PANEL AND GAGES
The instrument panel is a single unit design and
and screws. To service the instrument panel and
all parts attach to the main instrument panel with clips components see Figs. 601 through 610.

Fig. 1 Multi-Function Lever
e The Set Position - With the button switch
depressed and then released (car speed must
exceed the low speed limit point, and the
Off/On/Resume/Accel Switch must be in the
ON position) the cruise speed will be set at the
speed the car was at when the button was
released. Car cruise speed will be within
& 1 mph
of the actual speed at engaged speed. The system
will cruise until either the
Off/On/Resume/Accel Switch is moved to OFF,
the ignition switch is turned off, and/or the
Set/Coast Button is pushed in fully and held.
Pushing the brake pedal (or clutch pedal) releases
the cruise but not the resume capability.
The Coast Position - With the button switch
fully depressed, the driver can raise or lower his
speed. To increase speed, the driver can
accelerate to a new speed, fully depress the switch
and release the button. The controller "forgets"
the previously set speed. An increased control
speed can also be more easily set by the
Off/On/Resume/Accel Switch as previously
described. To decrease cruise speed, the button
switch is held in, disengaging the cruise system,
which allows the throttle to return to the idle
position. When the car has slowed to the aesired
cruise speed, releasing the switch will re-engage
the system.
e The "Tap-Down" Position - In order to do
this the cruise must be engaged and operating.
"Tapping-down" is done by quickly pressing and
releasing the
Set/Coast Button, or "tapping" the
button. Do not hold the button in the depressed
position or the system will go into the "coast"
mode. "Tap-down" is a function in which cruise
speed can be decreased by
1 mph increments (one
tap = 1 mph decrease).
The accelerator may be depressed at any
time
to override the cruise system.
Release of the accelerator will return the
car
te the previous set cruise speed.
NOTICE:
To keep the vehic:e under control, and
to prevent possible vehicle damage, it is not
advisable to use the cruise control on slippery
roads. It is not recommended to use the cruise
control in conditions such as on winding roads or
in traffic of heavy or varying volume. When
traveling down
a steeply graded hill, the cruise control
should be disengaged by depressing the
bralte pedal lightly. The transmission can then be
shifted into a lower gear range to help control
vehicle speed.
ELECTRONIC CONTROLLER (MODULE)
Figure 2
Fig. 2 Controller (Module)
The controller interprets the position of the servo,
the position of the control switches and the output of
the speed sensor. In response to these inputs, the
controller electrically signals the opening or closing of
the vent and vacuum solenoid valves in the servo.
The controller is usually mounted on the pedal
bracket, but is integral with the ECM on some models
with certain engines. For specific location, see the
On-Car Service portion of this section.
SERVO UNIT
Figure 3
The servo consists of a vacuum operated
diaphragm, a normally open solenoid valve to vent the
diaphragm chamber to atmosphere, a normally closed
solenoid valve to connect the diaphragm chamber to
the vacuum source, and a variable inductance position
sensor.
The servo incorporates a steel core which moves
within a coil. Its resulting variable inductance provides
a continuous (voltage) servo position signal to the
controller. This voltage signal is constantly compared
to the vehicle speed signal. This comparison
determines if the cruise system has corrected the speed
error or if additional changes are required.
The servo operates the throttle in response to
signals from the electronic controller as follows:
Steady Cruise State (system engaged and
operating)
- Both vacuum and vent valves are
closed or sealed. The servo has a constant vacuum
on the diaphragm and places no requirements on
the vacuum source, as vacuum is trapped in the
diaphragm chamber.
e Vehicle Losing Speed (due to steep grades or
driver wishes to increase speed by using the Accel
or 'tap-up' feature)
- The controller energizes the
vacuum solenoid to open the vacuum valve to the
vacuum source. This increases the vacuum level

GENERAL BESCRIP"T0N
RALLY GAGES
Figure I
The Rally Gage option, available on most models,
consists of an engine water temperature gage, an oil
pressure gage and a voltmeter.
These gages are incorporated into the instrument
cluster and replace the standard warning lamps. The
water temperature and oil pressure gages are
electrically operated from sending units mounted in the
cylinder head and oil filter base respectively. The
voltmeter registers regulated voltage, providing an
indication of the charging system's ability to keep the
battery charged. Continuous readings in either the high
or low voltage red bands can indicate improper voltage
regulation, broken or slipping alternator belt,
a shorted
alternator diode
or a defective battery. Readings in the
yellow band are normal with the engine idling or for
short periods after long engine cranking. However,
continuous readings in the yellow band can indicate
faulty operation. See Section
8A for diagnosis.
TACHOMETER
Figure 2
The tachometer indicates speed of the engine in
revolutions per minute (RPM). The engine can safely
be operated up to a maximum RPM as indicated by the
start of the red bar. Engine operation with tachometer
readings in the red area can lead to serious engine
damage.
Due to its dual-coil design, the tachometer may
not return to zero when the ignition
is turned oft: This
is
a normal condition and should not be diagnosed as
a problem in the tachometer.
TRIP ODOMETER
The trip odometer can be reset by twice fully
depressing the push button located on the right side of
the speedometer cluster. The first depression shows all
zeroes, and the second locks them in position. Both
depressions must be done to avoid possible half cycling

through a control switch on the instrument panel to
warm and defog the glass. A defogger timer, which is
also activated when the switch is depressed, allows
current flow through the rear window grid
for
approximately 10 minutes on first application
(approximately
5 minutes on subsequent applications)
and automatically shuts off the system. The system can
be turned off at any time by pushing the control switch
to the "OFF" position. The system is designed to
operate only when the ignition is on and must be
reactivated whenever the ignition has been turned off
and turned on again. Care should be exercised when
cleaning the inside rear glass so as not to scratch or
remove any of the grid material. Damage to the grid
could cause an open circuit. A monitor lamp in-the
control switch indicates power being fed to the rear
window grids so the operator can determine when the
system is operating.

TACHOMETER To check for moper o~eration of the rear window
1. Insure that the in-line or fuseblock fuse is not
blown. (See Section 8A for wiring information.)
2. With ignition off, remove the tachometer from
the cluster to gain access to the connectors. Turn
ignition on and check for
12 volts at the power
input connector
(pink/black) and no voltage at
ground (black). Connect a test light to the brown
wire which connects to the "TACH" terminal of
the distributor. With the engine idling, a test light
should light with approximately the same
intensity as when attached to
12 volts. As the
engine speed increases, the test light intensity
should decrease.
3. If proper signals are present at the connector,
replace the gage. If not, the problem is in the
wiring to the gage.
Some tachometers use a circuit shorting bar
to accommodate usage on several engine
models. If tachometer readings are
significantly wrong (for example, tach reads
2900 RPM with engine at 2000 RPM),
check for a shorting bar on the back of the
tach and insure proper position (Figure
3).
If position is correct, tach must be repaired.
(Not all tachometers use a shorting bar).
Due to its dual-coil design, the tachometer

Contact one probe of a test lamp to one of the left side
rear window garnish molding screws. With the other
test lamp probe tip removed (so as not to damage the
grid), contact the bare wire to the grid adjacent to the
garnish molding. The test lamp should glow at full
brilliance. Contact the same grid line midway across
the window. The lamp should glow at half brilliance.
Repeat the procedure for each grid line. If an open
circuit exists in a grid line between the left side and the
center, the test lamp will not glow. If there is an open
circuit between the center and the right side, the test
lamp will glow more brilliantly at the center than if the
line were unbroken.
Rear window grid repairs may be made by
following the procedure published in
Section 2H of the
