15.2.3.8 Trip Computer 
The instrument  pack provides the  trip computer  functions,  selected via the momentary  stalk input  and two  action  in- puts: 'Reset'  and 'Odo'. 
The  signal  used for each  function  are: 
Distance: 
Computed  from the speed  signal  from the ABS control  module. 
Average  Speed 
Computed  from the speed  signal  from the ABS control  module. 
Fuel Used 
Computed  from a pulsed signal from the engine management  system. 
Average Fuel Consumption 
Computed from the speed  signal  and the fuel  used signal. 
Range 
Computed  from the speed signal,  the fuel used signal and  fuel level. 
instantaneous  Fuel 
Computed from the speed  signal  and the  fuel used  signal. 
15.2.4 PRIMARY  WARNING  LAMPS - ILLUMINATED RED 
15.2.4.1  Exhaust Temperature (Japan only) 
The exhaust  temperature input  (pin 23,48 way connector) is provided  by the  catalyst  switching module  (pin 6), which 
pulls the line  low when a fault  occurs. 
15.2.4.2  Low Oil Pressure 
This signal  comes  direct from the variable  resistance type oil pressure  sensor. The sensor  resistancevalues range  from 
7552  to 310Q. 
15.2.4.3 Seat Selt 
The seat  belt input  (pin 15,48 way connector) is provided by the  seat belt stalk switch,  via the body  processor unit 
(pin 26). 
The  seat  belt lamp  will illuminate  when 
a low signal is seen  on the  instrument  pack input. 
15.2.4.4  Trunk Lid Open 
A microswitch  located in the trunk  lid lock  provides a signal  (pin 16,4&wayconnector) causing the  trunk lid open  indi- cator to illuminate  whenever the trunk lid is opened or  not closed correctly. 
The  trunk  lid open  indicator  will illuminate when 
a low signal  is seen  on the instrument  pack input. 
15.2.4.5  Door  Ajar 
Switches located in each  door closing  mechanism supply signals  to indicate  when any door  is either  open, or has  not 
been  closed correctly.  The system  operates  from two signals;  an input  from the driver's  door (pin 46, 48-way  con- nector) or a combined  signal input from the passenger  doors (pin 47,4&way connector). 
The  door  ajar lamp  will illuminate  when 
a low signal  is detected on either  of the two inputs.

luggage Compartment  Warning lamp (active low) 
Checkcontinuity  across compartment latch switch. With trunklid open short circuit should  be recorded,  with trunk 
lid  closed open  circuit should  be recorded. 
Measure  voltage 
at pack pin 16, &way connector, 0 volts  indicates  signal low ie lamp ON. Avalue of 12V at pin 16 indicates  healthy signal.
