DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 88-23
Differential lock warning lamp (If fitted)
The differential lock is a device used for rolling road testing only on vehicles up to 03 model year. On vehicles from
03 model year, the differential is a driver selectable option which can also be used for off road driving. Refer to the
service procedures for details of rolling road testing on vehicles up to and from 03 model year.
CAUTION: Engage the differential lock when testing the vehicle on a two wheel rolling road. The propeller
shaft connecting the axle not on the rolling road must also be removed.
Differential lock warning lamp – vehicles up to 03 model year
The differential lock warning lamp within the instrument pack utilises a red LED and a clear legend. When the
differential lock is engaged, using the lever on the side of the transfer box, the differential lock switch is operated and
the warning lamp is switched on providing the driver with a visible warning.
When the differential lock is engaged, the warning lamp will be illuminated continuously when the ignition switch is in
position II.
Differential lock warning lamp – vehicles from 03 model year
The differential lock warning lamp is located in the top left hand corner of the instrument pack and uses an amber LED
and a clear legend. When the differential lock is engaged, the warning lamp illuminates when the ignition is on to
provide a visual indication to the driver that the differential lock is engaged. The instrument pack, simultaneously emits
three audible warning chimes as a confirmation.
When the differential lock is disengaged, the warning lamp is extinguished and the instrument pack simultaneously
emits three audible warning chimes as a confirmation.
All vehicles
The power input for the LED is supplied by the instrument pack via fuse 13 in the engine compartment fusebox. The
differential lock switch or switches provide(s) the earth path illuminating the warning lamp.
The voltage on the differential lock switch or switches to instrument pack earth path produces the following warning
lamp functions:
l< 1.8 volts = warning lamp on.
l> 7.7 volts = warning lamp off.

88-26 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Off road mode warning lamp
The off road mode warning lamp is available on vehicles equipped with self levelling suspension. The off road mode
warning lamp within the instrument pack utilises an amber LED and a clear legend. On vehicles fitted with self levelling
suspension the driver can enable the function using the off road mode fascia switch.
The SLABS ECU illuminates the LED, providing the driver with a visible warning.
When the ignition is switched on the SLABS ECU illuminates the LED to provide a self-check, providing there is no
fault it will remain illuminated for 3 seconds or until the ignition is switched off.
The off road mode is only enabled if the transfer box is in low range.
The off road mode warning lamp will flash at the rate of 2 Hz during the transition phase (up and down), and is
illuminated continuously when at full height.
The vehicle may be parked in off road mode the driver is reminded when the ignition is switched on that off road mode
is still active by the warning lamp flashing twice at a ratio 2 Hz then illuminates continuously.
The warning lamp will flash at 2 Hz in belly out mode. Belly out mode is if the vehicle grounds out, then the suspension
will raise to try and clear the underside of the vehicle.
If a new SLABS ECU is fitted the warning lamp remains illuminated until the ECU has been calibrated using TestBook.
The warning lamp will illuminate continuously if the voltage supply is less than 10 volts for 1 second.
The power input for the LED is supplied by the instrument pack via fuse 27. The warning lamp is switched on
according to the voltage present in the SLABS ECU to instrument pack earth path as follows:
l< 1.8 volts = warning lamp on.
l> 7.7 volts = warning lamp off.

INSTRUMENTS
88-32 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Transmission high temperature warning lamp
The transmission high temperature warning lamp within the instrument pack utilises a red LED and a clear legend.
On vehicles fitted with automatic gearboxes, the transmission high temperature warning lamp is utilised to provide the
driver with a visible warning that the automatic gearbox oil has exceeded a normal operating temperature. The
warning lamp will extinguish if the gearbox oil returns back to normal operating temperature.
When the ignition is switched on, the instrument pack illuminates the LED to provide a self-check, providing there is
no fault it will remain illuminated for 3 seconds or until the ignition is switched off.
The power input for the LED is supplied by the instrument pack via fuse 13. The temperature sensor provides the
earth path to illuminate the transmission high temperature warning lamp.
The transmission high temperature warning lamp is controlled according to the voltage present on the temperature
sensor to instrument panel earth path:
l< 1.8 volts = warning lamp on.
l> 7.7 volts = warning lamp off.

88-40 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Audible warning speaker
The audible warning speaker is integral with the instrument pack and provides an audible warning to alert the driver
of the following situations:
lSeat belt warning lamp.
lKey in/lights on warning.
lSLABS command received warning.
lTransfer box in neutral warning.
lLights on warning.
It has a maximum pressure level of 87 dB at 1 metre (3.3 ft). The audible warning speaker is located on the rear of
the instrument pack.
The power input for the audible warning speaker is supplied by the instrument pack via fuse 27.
The BCU provides the earth paths for the following:
lThe seatbelt warning.
lKey in/lights on warning.
lLights on warning.
The SLABS ECU provides the earth paths for the SLABS commands. The EAT ECU provides the earth path for the
transfer box in neutral warning.
The BCU activates the audible warning speaker to produce audible warnings.
The audible warning speaker can operate with the ignition off.
The seatbelt warning will commence at key on, and in the event of a serial link failure, will terminate after 6 seconds.
The SLABS warnings are sounded only once for each received command.
The lights on warning and transfer box in neutral are sounded continuously until a sound off command is received.

3Mounting bracket
4Light sensor
5Compass LED display
6Compass calibration switch
7Compass printed circuit board
Certain vehicles have an interior rear view mirror that features an automatic photochromatic dimming function and an
electronic compass with LED display.
The compass mirror is a self-contained unit and does not interface with any other vehicle system or electronic control
unit. The mirror is fixed to a metal bracket attached to the windscreen.
A three pin connector provides the electrical connection to the mirror's internal circuit board. Pin-1 of the connector
provides the 12V power supply to the board via the auxiliary relay located in the engine compartment fusebox. When
the ignition switch is turned to the 'II' position, a 12V supply is provided to energise the coil of the auxiliary relay via
fuse 26 in the passenger compartment fusebox. The auxiliary relay's contact supply voltage is provided from the
vehicle battery through fusible links 1 & 7. When the relay's contacts close, a 12V supply is fed to the compass mirror
circuit board via fuse 15 in the passenger compartment fusebox. This is the supply voltage feed for the mirror's internal
compass.
Pin-2 of the electrical connector provides the path to earth.
Pin-3 of the electrical connector is a 12V ignition switched supply voltage (position 'II' of the ignition switch). The
supply voltage is provided to the mirror's circuit board via fuse 25 in the passenger compartment fusebox, and the
reverse lamp switch (normally closed) for vehicles with manual transmission or the starter inhibitor / reverse light
switch (normally closed) for vehicles with automatic transmission. This is the supply voltage feed for the mirror's
photochromatic dimming function.
