the hazard warning system by moving the hazard
warning switch button to the On position. Check for
battery voltage at the inoperative (right or left) turn
signal circuit cavity of the instrument panel wire
harness connector for the instrument cluster. There
should be a switching (on and off) battery voltage sig-
nal present. If OK, replace the faulty (right or left)
turn signal indicator bulb. If not OK, repair the open
(right or left) turn signal circuit between the instru-
ment cluster and the combination flasher in the
Junction Block (JB) as required.
VOLTAGE GAUGE
DESCRIPTION
A voltage gauge is standard equipment on all
instrument clusters. The voltage gauge is located in
the upper left corner of the instrument cluster, to the
left of the tachometer. The voltage gauge consists of a
movable gauge needle or pointer controlled by the
instrument cluster circuitry and a fixed 90 degree
scale on the gauge dial face that reads left-to-right
from 9 volts to 19 volts. An International Control and
Display Symbol icon for ªBattery Charging Condi-
tionº is located on the gauge dial face.
The voltage gauge graphics are either white, gray
and orange against a black gauge dial face (base
cluster) or black, gray and red against a taupe gauge
dial face (premium cluster), making them clearly vis-
ible within the instrument cluster in daylight. When
illuminated from behind by the panel lamps dimmer
controlled cluster illumination lighting with the exte-rior lamps turned On, the base cluster white gauge
graphics appear blue-green and the orange graphics
still appear orange, while the premium cluster taupe
gauge dial face appears blue-green with the black
graphics silhouetted against the illuminated back-
ground and the red graphics still appear red. The
gray gauge graphics for both versions of the cluster
are not illuminated. The orange gauge needle in the
base cluster gauge is internally illuminated, while
the black gauge needle in the premium cluster gauge
is not.
Base cluster gauge illumination is provided by
replaceable incandescent bulb and bulb holder units
located on the instrument cluster electronic circuit
board. Premium cluster gauge illumination is pro-
vided by an integral electro-luminescent lamp that is
serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster. The
voltage gauge is serviced as a unit with the instru-
ment cluster.
OPERATION
The voltage gauge gives an indication to the vehi-
cle operator of the electrical system voltage. This
gauge is controlled by the instrument cluster circuit
board based upon cluster programming and elec-
tronic messages received by the cluster from the
Powertrain Control Module (PCM) over the Program-
mable Communications Interface (PCI) data bus. The
voltage gauge is an air core magnetic unit that
receives battery current on the instrument cluster
electronic circuit board through the fused ignition
switch output (run-start) circuit whenever the igni-
tion switch is in the On or Start positions. The clus-
ter is programmed to move the gauge needle back to
the low end of the scale after the ignition switch is
turned to the Off position. The instrument cluster
circuitry controls the gauge needle position and pro-
vides the following features:
²System Voltage Message- Each time the clus-
ter receives a message from the PCM indicating the
system voltage, the cluster moves the gauge needle to
the relative voltage level position on the gauge scale.
²System Voltage Low Message- Each time the
cluster receives a message from the PCM indicating
the system voltage is low (system voltage is about
eleven volts or lower), the gauge needle is moved to
the relative voltage position in the red zone of the
gauge scale and the check gauges indicator is illumi-
nated. The gauge needle remains in the red zone and
the check gauges indicator remains illuminated until
the cluster receives a message from the PCM indicat-
ing there is no low system voltage condition (system
voltage is above about eleven volts, but lower than
about sixteen volts).
²System Voltage High Message- Each time
the cluster receives a message from the PCM indicat-
8J - 34 INSTRUMENT CLUSTERWJ
TURN SIGNAL INDICATOR (Continued)

ing the system voltage is high (system voltage is
about sixteen volts or higher), the gauge needle is
moved to the relative voltage position in the red zone
of the gauge scale and the check gauges indicator is
illuminated. The gauge needle remains in the red
zone and the check gauges indicator remains illumi-
nated until the cluster receives a message from the
PCM indicating there is no high system voltage con-
dition (system voltage is below about sixteen volts,
but higher than about eleven volts).
²Communication Error- If the cluster fails to
receive a system voltage message, it will hold the
gauge needle at the last indication for about twelve
seconds, until a new message is received, or until the
ignition switch is turned to the Off position, which-
ever occurs first. After twelve seconds, the cluster
will return the gauge needle to the low end of the
gauge scale.
²Actuator Test- Each time the cluster is put
through the actuator test, the gauge needle will be
swept across the entire gauge scale and back to con-
firm the functionality of the gauge and the cluster
control circuitry.
The PCM continually monitors the system voltage
to control the generator output. The PCM then sends
the proper system voltage messages to the instru-
ment cluster. For further diagnosis of the voltage
gauge or the instrument cluster circuitry that con-
trols the gauge, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/INSTRU-
MENT CLUSTER - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING). If
the instrument cluster turns on the check gauges
indicator due to a system voltage low or high condi-
tion, it may indicate that the charging system
requires service. For proper diagnosis of the charging
system, the PCI data bus, or the electronic message
inputs to the instrument cluster that control the volt-
age gauge, a DRBIIItscan tool is required. Refer to
the appropriate diagnostic information.
WAIT-TO-START INDICATOR
DESCRIPTION
A wait-to-start indicator is only found in the
instrument clusters of vehicles equipped with an
optional diesel engine. The wait-to-start indicator is
located near the lower edge of the tachometer gauge
dial face, to the right of center. The wait-to-start
indicator consists of an International Control and
Display Symbol icon for ªDiesel Preheatº imprinted
on an amber lens. The lens is located behind a cutout
in the opaque layer of the tachometer gauge dial face
overlay. The dark outer layer of the gauge dial face
overlay prevents the icon from being clearly visible
when the indicator is not illuminated. The icon
appears silhouetted against an amber field throughthe translucent outer layer of the gauge dial face
overlay when the indicator is illuminated from
behind by a replaceable incandescent bulb and bulb
holder unit located on the instrument cluster elec-
tronic circuit board. The wait-to-start indicator lens
is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.
OPERATION
The wait-to-start indicator gives an indication to
the vehicle operator when the diesel engine glow
plugs are energized in their preheat operating mode.
This indicator is controlled by a transistor on the
instrument cluster circuit board based upon cluster
programming and electronic messages received by
the cluster from the Powertrain Control Module
(PCM) over the Programmable Communications
Interface (PCI) data bus. The wait-to-start indicator
bulb is completely controlled by the instrument clus-
ter logic circuit, and that logic will only allow this
indicator to operate when the instrument cluster
receives a battery current input on the fused ignition
switch output (run-start) circuit. Therefore, the indi-
cator will always be off when the ignition switch is in
any position except On or Start. The bulb only illu-
minates when it is switched to ground by the instru-
ment cluster transistor. The instrument cluster will
turn on the wait-to-start indicator for the following
reasons:
²Wait-To-Start Indicator Lamp-On Message-
Each time the cluster receives a wait-to-start indica-
tor lamp-on message from the PCM indicating the
glow plugs are heating and the driver must wait to
start the engine, the wait-to-start indicator will be
illuminated. The indicator remains illuminated until
the cluster receives a wait-to-start indicator lamp-off
message, or until the ignition switch is turned to the
Off position, whichever occurs first.
²Actuator Test- Each time the cluster is put
through the actuator test, the wait-to-start indicator
will be turned on for the duration of the test to con-
firm the functionality of the bulb and the cluster con-
trol circuitry.
The PCM continually monitors the ambient tem-
perature and the glow plug pre-heater circuits to
determine how long the glow plugs must be heated in
the pre-heat operating mode. The PCM then sends
the proper wait-to-start indicator lamp-on and lamp-
off messages to the instrument cluster. If the wait-to-
start indicator fails to light during the actuator test,
replace the bulb with a known good unit. For further
diagnosis of the wait-to-start indicator or the instru-
ment cluster circuitry that controls the indicator,
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/INSTRUMENT CLUS-
TER - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING). For proper
diagnosis of the glow plug pre-heater control circuits,
the PCM, the PCI data bus, or the electronic message

inputs to the instrument cluster that control the
wait-to-start indicator, a DRBIIItscan tool is
required. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic infor-
mation.
WATER-IN-FUEL INDICATOR
DESCRIPTION
A water-in-fuel indicator is only found in the
instrument clusters of vehicles equipped with an
optional diesel engine. The water-in-fuel indicator is
located near the left edge of the instrument cluster,
to the left of the tachometer. The water-in-fuel indi-
cator consists of an International Control and Dis-
play Symbol icon for ªWater in Fuelº imprinted on a
red lens. The lens is located behind a cutout in the
opaque layer of the instrument cluster overlay. The
dark outer layer of the overlay prevents the icon
from being clearly visible when the indicator is not
illuminated. The icon appears silhouetted against a
red field through the translucent outer layer of the
overlay when the indicator is illuminated from
behind by a Light Emitting Diode (LED), which is
soldered onto the instrument cluster electronic circuit
board. The water-in-fuel indicator lens is serviced as
a unit with the instrument cluster lens, hood and
mask unit.
OPERATION
The water-in-fuel indicator gives an indication to
the vehicle operator when there is excessive water in
the fuel system. This indicator is controlled by a
transistor on the instrument cluster circuit board
based upon cluster programming and electronic mes-
sages received by the cluster from the Powertrain
Control Module (PCM) over the Programmable Com-
munications Interface (PCI) data bus. The water-in-
fuel indicator Light Emitting Diode (LED) is
completely controlled by the instrument cluster logic
circuit, and that logic will only allow this indicator tooperate when the instrument cluster receives a bat-
tery current input on the fused ignition switch out-
put (run-start) circuit. Therefore, the indicator will
always be off when the ignition switch is in any posi-
tion except On or Start. The LED only illuminates
when it is provided a path to ground by the instru-
ment cluster transistor. The instrument cluster will
turn on the water-in-fuel indicator for the following
reasons:
²Bulb Test- Each time the ignition switch is
turned to the On position the water-in-fuel indicator
is illuminated for about three seconds as a bulb test.
²Water-In-Fuel Indicator Lamp-On Message-
Each time the cluster receives a water-in-fuel indica-
tor lamp-on message from the PCM indicating there
is excessive water in the diesel fuel system, the
water-in-fuel indicator will be illuminated. The indi-
cator remains illuminated until the cluster receives a
water-in-fuel indicator lamp-off message, or until the
ignition switch is turned to the Off position, which-
ever occurs first.
²Actuator Test- Each time the cluster is put
through the actuator test, the water-in-fuel indicator
will be turned on for the duration of the test to con-
firm the functionality of the LED and the cluster con-
trol circuitry.
The PCM continually monitors the water-in-fuel
sensor to determine whether there is excessive water
in the diesel fuel. The PCM then sends the proper
water-in-fuel indicator lamp-on and lamp-off mes-
sages to the instrument cluster. For further diagnosis
of the water-in-fuel indicator or the instrument clus-
ter circuitry that controls the indicator, (Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/INSTRUMENT CLUSTER - DIAGNO-
SIS AND TESTING). For proper diagnosis of the
water-in-fuel sensor, the PCM, the PCI data bus, or
the electronic message inputs to the instrument clus-
ter that control the water-in-fuel indicator, a
DRBIIItscan tool is required. Refer to the appropri-
ate diagnostic information.

ergize the combination flasher in response to mes-
sage inputs received over the Programmable
Communications Interface (PCI) data bus network.
The BCM can energize the combination flasher when
the VTSS is requested.
Vehicles equipped with the optional Electronic
Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) use turn signal
status messages received from the Electro-Mechani-
cal Instrument Cluster (EMIC) and distance mes-
sages received from the Powertrain Control Module
(PCM) over the PCI data bus to determine when the
Turn Signal On warning should be activated. The
EMIC receives hard wired inputs from the combina-
tion flasher to operate the turn signal indicators,
then sends the proper turn signal status message to
the EVIC. If a turn signal is left on for more than
about 1.6 kilometers (1 mile) of driving distance, the
EVIC will display a visual ªTurn Signal Onº message
and will send a request to the BCM over the PCI
data bus to notify the vehicle operator.
During both the turn signal and the hazard warn-
ing operation, if the exterior lamps are turned Off,
the front park/turn signal lamps and the front side
marker lamps will flash in unison. If the exterior
lamps are turned On, the front park/turn signal
lamps and the front side marker lamps will flash
alternately. Refer to the owner's manual.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - TURN SIGNAL &
HAZARD WARNING SYSTEMS
When diagnosing the turn signal and hazard warn-
ing circuits, remember that high generator output
can burn out bulbs rapidly and repeatedly. If this is a
concern on the vehicle being diagnosed, test the
charging system as required.

turn signal has been left on. The EVIC messages and
displays are coordinated with warning indicators in
the instrument cluster to avoid duplication.
The EVIC module contains a central processing
unit and interfaces with other electronic modules in
the vehicle over the Programmable Communications
Interface (PCI) data bus network. The PCI data bus
network allows the sharing of sensor information.
This helps to reduce wire harness complexity, reduce
internal controller hardware, and reduce component
sensor current loads. At the same time, this system
provides increased reliability, enhanced diagnostics,
and allows the addition of many new feature capabil-
ities.
The EVIC module includes the following display
options:
²Compass and Temperature- provides the out-
side temperature and one of eight compass readings
to indicate the direction the vehicle is facing.
²Average fuel economy- shows the average
fuel economy since the last trip computer reset.
²Distance to empty- shows the estimated dis-
tance that can be travelled with the fuel remaining
in the fuel tank. This estimated distance is computed
using the average miles-per-gallon from the last 30
gallons of fuel used.
²Instant fuel economy- shows the present fuel
economy based upon the current vehicle distance and
fuel used information.
²Trip distance- shows the distance travelled
since the last trip computer reset.
²Elapsed time- shows the accumulated igni-
tion-on time since the last trip computer reset.
²Distance to service- shows the distance
remaining until the next scheduled service interval.
²Tire Pressure- shows the tire pressure in each
tire.
²Blank screen- the EVIC compass/temperature/
trip computer VFD is turned off.
The EVIC is capable of displaying the following
