2003 DODGE RAM coolant temperature

The EMIC microprocessor smooths the input data
using algorithms to provide gauge readings that are
accurate, stable and responsive to operating condi-
tions. These algorithms are designed to provide
gauge readings during normal operation that are con-
sistent with customer expectations. However, when
abnormal conditions exist such as high coolant tem-
perature, the algorithm can drive the gauge pointer
to an extreme position and the microprocessor can
sound a chime through the on-board audible tone
generator to provide distinct visual and audible indi-
cations of a problem to the vehicle operator. The
instrument cluster circuitry may also produce audi-
ble warnings for other electronic modules in the vehi-
cle based upon electronic tone request messages
received over the PCI data bus. Each audible warn-
ing is intended to provide the vehicle operator with
an audible alert to supplement a visual indication.The EMIC circuitry operates on battery current
received through a fused B(+) fuse in the Integrated
Power Module (IPM) on a non-switched fused B(+)
circuit, and on battery current received through a
fused ignition switch output (run-start) fuse in the
IPM on a fused ignition switch output (run-start) cir-
cuit. This arrangement allows the EMIC to provide
some features regardless of the ignition switch posi-
tion, while other features will operate only with the
ignition switch in the On or Start positions. The
EMIC circuitry is grounded through a ground circuit
and take out of the instrument panel wire harness
with an eyelet terminal connector that is secured by
a ground screw to a ground location near the center
of the instrument panel structural support.
The EMIC also has a self-diagnostic actuator test
capability, which will test each of the PCI bus mes-
sage-controlled functions of the cluster by lighting
the appropriate indicators, positioning the gauge nee-

switch is turned to the Off position, whichever occurs
first.
²Actuator Test- Each time the cluster is put
through the actuator test, the cargo lamp indicator
will be turned on, then off again during the bulb
check portion of the test to confirm the functionality
of the LED and the cluster control circuitry.
The instrument cluster continually monitors the
headlamp dimmer switch circuit to determine the
proper interior lamps features and panel lamps illu-
mination levels to provide. The cluster then energizes
and de-energizes a low side driver circuit to control
the exterior cargo lamp. Each time the instrument
cluster energizes the cargo lamp driver and the igni-
tion switch is in the On or start positions, the cluster
also turns on the cargo lamp indicator. For further
diagnosis of the cargo lamp 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 cargo lamp or the headlamp switch
inputs to the instrument cluster that control the
cargo lamp indicator, a DRBIIItscan tool is required.

CHECK GAUGES INDICATOR
DESCRIPTION
A check gauges indicator is standard equipment on
all instrument clusters. On vehicles equipped with a
gasoline engine, the check gauges indicator is located
near the lower edge of the instrument cluster,
between the tachometer and the speedometer. On
vehicles equipped with a diesel engine, the check
gauges indicator is located on the left side of the
instrument cluster, to the left of the voltage gauge.
The check gauges indicator consists of a stencil-like
cutout of the words ªCHECK GAGESº in the opaque
layer of the instrument cluster overlay. The dark
outer layer of the overlay prevents the indicator from
being clearly visible when it is not illuminated. A red
Light Emitting Diode (LED) behind the cutout in the
opaque layer of the overlay causes the ªCHECK
GAGESº text to appear in red through the translu-
cent outer layer of the overlay when the indicator is
illuminated from behind by the LED, which is sol-
dered onto the instrument cluster electronic circuit
board. The check gauges indicator is serviced as a
unit with the instrument cluster.
OPERATION
The check gauges indicator gives an indication to
the vehicle operator when certain instrument cluster
gauge readings reflect a condition requiring immedi-ate attention. This indicator is controlled by a tran-
sistor on the instrument cluster circuit board based
upon cluster programming and electronic messages
received by the cluster from the Powertrain Control
Module (PCM) on vehicles equipped with a gasoline
engine, or from the Engine Control Module (ECM) on
vehicles equipped with a diesel engine over the Pro-
grammable Communications Interface (PCI) data
bus. The check gauges indicator Light Emitting
Diode (LED) is completely controlled by the instru-
ment cluster 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 LED will always be off when the ignition switch
is in any position except On or Start. The LED only
illuminates when it is provided a path to ground by
the instrument cluster transistor. The instrument
cluster will turn on the check gauges indicator for
the following reasons:
²Bulb Test- Each time the ignition switch is
turned to the On position the check gauges indicator
is illuminated for about two seconds as a bulb test.
²Engine Temperature High Message- Each
time the cluster receives a message from the PCM or
ECM indicating the engine coolant temperature of a
gasoline engine is about 122É C (252É F) or higher, or
of a diesel engine is about 112É C (233É F) or higher,
the check gauges indicator will be illuminated. The
indicator remains illuminated until the cluster
receives a message from the PCM or ECM indicating
that the engine coolant temperature of a gasoline
engine is below about 122É C (252É F), or of a diesel
engine is below about 112É C (233É F), or until the
ignition switch is turned to the Off position, which-
ever occurs first.
²Engine Oil Pressure Low Message- Each
time the cluster receives a message from the PCM or
ECM indicating the engine oil pressure is about 41
kPa (6 psi) or lower, the check gauges indicator will
be illuminated. The indicator remains illuminated
until the cluster receives a message from the PCM or
ECM indicating that the engine oil pressure is above
about 41 kPa (6 psi), or until the ignition switch is
turned to the Off position, whichever occurs first.
The cluster will only turn the indicator on in
response to an engine oil pressure low message if the
engine speed is greater than zero.
²System Voltage Low (Charge Fail) Message
- Each time the cluster receives a message from the
PCM or ECM indicating the electrical system voltage
is less than about 11.5 volts (charge fail condition),
the check gauges indicator will be illuminated. The
indicator remains illuminated until the cluster
receives a message from the PCM or ECM indicating
the electrical system voltage is greater than about

DOOR AJAR INDICATOR
DESCRIPTION
A door ajar indicator is standard equipment on all
instrument clusters. The door ajar indicator is
located on the right side of the instrument cluster, to
the right of the engine temperature gauge. The door
ajar indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the
words ªDOOR AJARº in the opaque layer of the
instrument cluster overlay. The dark outer layer of
the overlay prevents the indicator from being clearly
visible when it is not illuminated. A red Light Emit-
ting Diode (LED) behind the cutout in the opaque
layer of the overlay causes the ªDOOR AJARº text to
appear in red through the translucent outer layer of
the overlay when the indicator is illuminated from
behind by the LED, which is soldered onto the
instrument cluster electronic circuit board. The door
ajar indicator is serviced as a unit with the instru-
ment cluster.
OPERATION
The door ajar indicator gives an indication to the
vehicle operator that one or more of the passenger
compartment doors may be open or not completely
latched. This indicator is controlled by a transistor
on the instrument cluster circuit board based upon
cluster programming and hard wired inputs received
by the cluster from the door ajar switches located in
each door latch unit. The door ajar indicator Light
Emitting Diode (LED) is completely controlled by the
instrument cluster logic circuit, and that logic will
allow this indicator to operate whenever the instru-
ment cluster receives a battery current input on the
fused ignition switch output (run-start) circuit.
Therefore, the LED will always be off when the igni-
tion switch is in any position except On or Start. The
LED only illuminates when it is provided a path to
ground by the instrument cluster transistor. The
instrument cluster will turn on the door ajar indica-
tor for the following reasons:
²Bulb Test- Each time the ignition switch is
turned to the On position the door ajar indicator is
illuminated for about two seconds as a bulb test.
²Door Ajar Switch Input- Each time the clus-
ter detects ground on any one of the door ajar switch
sense circuits (door ajar switch closed = door is open
or not completely latched) the door ajar indicator will
be illuminated. The indicator remains illuminated
until all of the door ajar switch sense inputs to the
cluster are an open circuit (door ajar switch open =
door fully closed), 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 door ajar indicator will
be turned on, then off again during the bulb checkportion of the test to confirm the functionality of the
LED and the cluster control circuitry.
The instrument cluster continually monitors the
door ajar switches to determine the status of the
doors. For further diagnosis of the door ajar indicator
or the instrument cluster circuitry that controls the
indicator, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/INSTRUMENT
CLUSTER - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING). For
proper diagnosis of the door ajar switches and cir-
cuits, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/LIGHTING
- INTERIOR/DOOR AJAR SWITCH - DIAGNOSIS
AND TESTING).
ENGINE TEMPERATURE
GAUGE
DESCRIPTION
An engine coolant temperature gauge is standard
equipment on all instrument clusters. The engine
coolant temperature gauge is located in the lower
right quadrant of the instrument cluster, below the
oil pressure gauge. The engine coolant temperature
gauge consists of a movable gauge needle or pointer
controlled by the instrument cluster circuitry and a
fixed 90 degree scale on the cluster overlay that
reads left-to-right from ªCº (or Cold) to ªHº (or Hot)
for gasoline engines. On vehicles with a diesel
engine, the scale reads from ª60ºÉ C to ª120ºÉ C in
markets where a metric instrument cluster is speci-
fied, or from ª140ºÉ F to ª245ºÉ F in all other mar-
kets. An International Control and Display Symbol
icon for ªEngine Coolant Temperatureº is located on
the cluster overlay, directly below the left end of the
gauge scale. The engine coolant temperature gauge
graphics are black against a white field except for
two red graduations at the high end of the gauge
scale, making them clearly visible within the instru-
ment cluster in daylight. When illuminated from
behind by the panel lamps dimmer controlled cluster
illumination lighting with the exterior lamps turned
On, the black graphics appear blue and the red
graphics still appear red. The orange gauge needle is
internally illuminated. Gauge illumination is pro-
vided by replaceable incandescent bulb and bulb
holder units located on the instrument cluster elec-
tronic circuit board. The engine coolant temperature
gauge is serviced as a unit with the instrument clus-
ter.
OPERATION
The engine coolant temperature gauge gives an
indication to the vehicle operator of the engine cool-
ant temperature. This gauge is controlled by the
instrument cluster circuit board based upon cluster
programming and electronic messages received by
DRINSTRUMENT CLUSTER 8J - 23

the cluster from the Powertrain Control Module
(PCM) on vehicles equipped with a gasoline engine,
or from the Engine Control Module (ECM) on vehi-
cles equipped with a diesel engine over the Program-
mable Communications Interface (PCI) data bus. The
engine coolant temperature gauge is an air core mag-
netic unit that receives battery current on the instru-
ment cluster electronic circuit board through the
fused ignition switch output (run-start) circuit when-
ever the ignition switch is in the On or Start posi-
tions. The cluster is programmed to move the gauge
needle back to the low end of the scale after the igni-
tion switch is turned to the Off position. The instru-
ment cluster circuitry controls the gauge needle
position and provides the following features:
²Engine Temperature Message- Each time
the cluster receives a message from the PCM or ECM
indicating the engine coolant temperature is between
the low end of normal [about 54É C (130É F) for gas-
oline engines, or about 60É C (140É F) for diesel
engines] and the high end of normal [about 122É C
(252É F) for gasoline engines, or about 116É C (240É
F) for diesel engines], the gauge needle is moved to
the actual relative temperature position on the gauge
scale.
²Engine Temperature Low Message- Each
time the cluster receives a message from the PCM or
ECM indicating the engine coolant temperature is
below the low end of normal [about 54É C (130É F) for
gasoline engines, or about 60É C (140É F) for diesel
engines], the gauge needle is held at the graduation
on the far left end of the gauge scale. The gauge nee-
dle remains at the left end of the gauge scale until
the cluster receives a message from the PCM or ECM
indicating that the engine temperature is above
about 54É C (130É F) for gasoline engines, or about
60É C (140É F) for diesel engines, or until the ignition
switch is turned to the Off position, whichever occurs
first.
²Engine Temperature High Message- Each
time the cluster receives a message from the PCM or
ECM indicating the engine coolant temperature is
above about 122É C (252É F) for gasoline engines, or
about 116É C (240É F) for diesel engines, the gauge
needle is moved into the red zone at the far right end
of gauge scale, the check gauges indicator is illumi-
nated, and a single chime tone is sounded. The gauge
needle remains in the red zone and the check gauges
indicator remains illuminated until the cluster
receives a message from the PCM or ECM indicating
that the engine temperature is below about 122É C
(252É F) for gasoline engines, or about 116É C (240É
F) for diesel engines, or until the ignition switch is
turned to the Off position, whichever occurs first.
The chime tone feature will only repeat during the
same ignition cycle if the check gauges indicator iscycled off and then on again by the appropriate
engine temperature messages from the PCM or ECM.
²Communication Error- If the cluster fails to
receive an engine temperature message, it will hold
the gauge needle at the last indication for about five
seconds or until the ignition switch is turned to the
Off position, whichever occurs first. After five sec-
onds, the cluster will move the gauge needle to the
low end of the gauge scale.
²Actuator Test- Each time the cluster is put
through the actuator test, the engine coolant temper-
ature gauge needle will be swept to several calibra-
tion points on the gauge scale in a prescribed
sequence in order to confirm the functionality of the
gauge and the cluster control circuitry.
On vehicles with a gasoline engine, the PCM con-
tinually monitors the engine coolant temperature
sensor to determine the engine operating tempera-
ture. On vehicles with a diesel engine, the ECM con-
tinually monitors the engine coolant temperature
sensor to determine the engine operating tempera-
ture. The PCM or ECM then sends the proper engine
coolant temperature messages to the instrument
cluster. For further diagnosis of the engine coolant
temperature gauge or the instrument cluster cir-
cuitry that controls the gauge, (Refer to 8 - ELEC-
TRICAL/INSTRUMENT CLUSTER - DIAGNOSIS
AND TESTING). If the instrument cluster turns on
the check gauges indicator due to a high engine tem-
perature gauge reading, it may indicate that the
engine or the engine cooling system requires service.
For proper diagnosis of the engine coolant tempera-
ture sensor, the PCM, the ECM, the PCI data bus, or
the electronic message inputs to the instrument clus-
ter that control the engine coolant temperature
gauge, a DRBIIItscan tool is required. Refer to the
appropriate diagnostic information.
ETC INDICATOR
DESCRIPTION
An Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) indicator is
standard equipment on all gasoline engine instru-
ment clusters. However, on vehicles not equipped
with the optional 5.7 liter gasoline engine, this indi-
cator is electronically disabled. The ETC indicator is
located on the right side of the instrument cluster, to
the right of the engine temperature gauge. The ETC
indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the Inter-
national Control and Display Symbol icon for ªElec-
tronic Throttle Controlº in the opaque layer of the
instrument cluster overlay. The dark outer layer of
the overlay prevents the indicator from being clearly
visible when it is not illuminated. A red Light Emit-
ting Diode (LED) behind the cutout in the opaque
8J - 24 INSTRUMENT CLUSTERDR
ENGINE TEMPERATURE GAUGE (Continued)

must be displaying the odometer information when
the trip odometer reset switch button is pressed in
order to toggle to the engine hours display. The
engine hours will remain displayed for about thirty
seconds, until the engine speed message is greater
than zero, or until the ignition switch is turned to
the Off position, whichever occurs first.
²Trip Odometer Reset- When the trip odome-
ter reset switch button is pressed and held for longer
than about two seconds with the ignition switch in
the On or Start positions, the trip odometer will be
reset to 0.0 kilometers (miles). The VFD must be dis-
playing the trip odometer information in order for
the trip odometer information to be reset.
²Communication Error- If the cluster fails to
receive a distance message during normal operation,
it will hold and display the last data received until
the ignition switch is turned to the Off position. If
the cluster does not receive a distance message
within one second after the ignition switch is turned
to the On position, it will display the last distance
message stored in the cluster memory. If the cluster
is unable to display distance information due to an
error internal to the cluster, the VFD display will be
dashes.
²Actuator Test- Each time the cluster is put
through the actuator test, the odometer VFD will dis-
play all of its segments simultaneously during the
VFD portion of the test to confirm the functionality
of each of the VFD segments and the cluster control
circuitry.
The PCM continually monitors the vehicle speed
pulse information received from the vehicle speed
sensor and engine speed pulse information received
from the crankshaft position sensor, then sends the
proper distance and engine speed messages to the
instrument cluster. For further diagnosis of the
odometer/trip odometer or the instrument cluster cir-
cuitry that controls these functions, (Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/INSTRUMENT CLUSTER - DIAGNO-
SIS AND TESTING). For proper diagnosis of the
vehicle speed sensor, the crankshaft position sensor,
the PCM, the PCI data bus, or the electronic message
inputs to the instrument cluster that control the
odometer/trip odometer, a DRBIIItscan tool is
required. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic infor-
mation.
OIL PRESSURE GAUGE
DESCRIPTION
An oil pressure gauge is standard equipment on all
instrument clusters. The oil pressure gauge is located
in the upper right quadrant of the instrument clus-
ter, above the coolant temperature gauge. The oilpressure gauge consists of a movable gauge needle or
pointer controlled by the instrument cluster circuitry
and a fixed 90 degree scale on the cluster overlay
that reads left-to-right from ªLº (or Low) to ªHº (or
High) for gasoline engines. On vehicles with a diesel
engine the scale reads from ª0º kPa to ª760º kPa in
markets where a metric instrument cluster is speci-
fied, or from ª0º psi to ª110º psi in all other markets.
An International Control and Display Symbol icon for
ªEngine Oilº is located on the cluster overlay, directly
below the left end of the gauge scale. The oil pres-
sure gauge graphics are black against a white field
except for two red graduations at the low end of the
gauge scale, making them clearly visible within the
instrument cluster in daylight. When illuminated
from behind by the panel lamps dimmer controlled
cluster illumination lighting with the exterior lamps
turned On, the black graphics appear blue and the
red graphics still appear red. The orange gauge nee-
dle is internally illuminated. Gauge illumination is
provided by replaceable incandescent bulb and bulb
holder units located on the instrument cluster elec-
tronic circuit board. The oil pressure gauge is ser-
viced as a unit with the instrument cluster.
OPERATION
The oil pressure gauge gives an indication to the
vehicle operator of the engine oil pressure. 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) on vehicles with a
gasoline engine, or from the Engine Control Module
(ECM) on vehicles equipped with a diesel engine over
the Programmable Communications Interface (PCI)
data bus. The oil pressure gauge is an air core mag-
netic unit that receives battery current on the instru-
ment cluster electronic circuit board through the
fused ignition switch output (run-start) circuit when-
ever the ignition switch is in the On or Start posi-
tions. The cluster is programmed to move the gauge
needle back to the low end of the scale after the igni-
tion switch is turned to the Off position. The instru-
ment cluster circuitry controls the gauge needle
position and provides the following features:
²Engine Oil Pressure Message- The instru-
ment cluster circuitry restricts the oil pressure gauge
needle operation in order to provide readings that
are consistent with customer expectations. Each time
the cluster receives a message from the PCM or ECM
indicating the engine oil pressure is above about 41
kPa (6 psi) the cluster holds the gauge needle at a
point near the middle increment within the normal
range on the gauge scale.
²Engine Oil Pressure Low Message- Each
time the cluster receives a message from the PCM or

instrument cluster. For further diagnosis of the over-
drive off indicator or the instrument cluster circuitry
that controls the indicator, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRI-
CAL/INSTRUMENT CLUSTER - DIAGNOSIS AND
TESTING). For proper diagnosis of the overdrive con-
trol system, the PCM, the PCI data bus, or the elec-
tronic message inputs to the instrument cluster that
control the overdrive off indicator, a DRBIIItscan
tool is required. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic
information.
SEATBELT INDICATOR
DESCRIPTION
A seatbelt indicator is standard equipment on all
instrument clusters. The seatbelt indicator is located
on the upper edge of the instrument cluster, between
the tachometer and the speedometer. The seatbelt
indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the Inter-
national Control and Display Symbol icon for ªSeat
Beltº in the opaque layer of the instrument cluster
overlay. The dark outer layer of the overlay prevents
the indicator from being clearly visible when it is not
illuminated. A red Light Emitting Diode (LED)
behind the cutout in the opaque layer of the overlay
causes the icon to appear in red through the translu-
cent outer layer of the overlay when the indicator is
illuminated from behind by the LED, which is sol-
dered onto the instrument cluster electronic circuit
board. The seatbelt indicator is serviced as a unit
with the instrument cluster.
OPERATION
The seatbelt indicator gives an indication to the
vehicle operator of the status of the driver side front
seatbelt. This indicator is controlled by a transistor
on the instrument cluster circuit board based upon
cluster programming and a hard wired input from
the seatbelt switch in the driver side front seatbelt
buckle through the seat belt indicator driver circuit.
The seatbelt indicator Light Emitting Diode (LED) is
completely controlled by the instrument cluster logic
circuit, and that logic will only allow this indicator to
operate when the instrument cluster receives a bat-
tery current input on the fused ignition switch out-
put (run-start) circuit. Therefore, the LED 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 seatbelt indicator for the following rea-
sons:
²Seatbelt Reminder Function- Each time the
cluster receives a battery current input on the fused
ignition switch output (run-start) circuit, the indica-tor will be illuminated as a seatbelt reminder for
about six seconds, or until the ignition switch is
turned to the Off position, whichever occurs first.
This reminder function will occur regardless of the
status of the seatbelt switch input to the cluster.
²Driver Side Front Seatbelt Not Buckled-
Following the seatbelt reminder function, each time
the cluster detects an open circuit on the seat belt
indicator driver circuit (seatbelt switch open = seat-
belt unbuckled) with the ignition switch in the Start
or On positions, the indicator will be illuminated.
The seatbelt indicator remains illuminated until the
seat belt indicator driver input to the cluster is
closed to ground (seatbelt switch closed = seatbelt
buckled), or until the ignition switch is turned to the
Off position, whichever occurs first.
²Airbag Indicator Backup- If the instrument
cluster detects a fault in the airbag indicator circuit
it will send a message indicating the fault to the Air-
bag Control Module (ACM), store a Diagnostic Trou-
ble Code (DTC) in the cluster memory, then flash the
seatbelt indicator on and off. The cluster will con-
tinue to flash the seatbelt indicator until the airbag
indicator circuit fault is resolved, 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 seatbelt indicator will
be turned on, then off again during the bulb check
portion of the test to confirm the functionality of the
LED and the cluster control circuitry.
The seatbelt switch is connected in series between
ground and the seat belt indicator driver input to the
instrument cluster. The seatbelt switch input to the
instrument cluster circuitry may be diagnosed using
conventional diagnostic tools and methods. For fur-
ther diagnosis of the seatbelt indicator or the instru-
ment cluster circuitry that controls the LED, (Refer
to 8 - ELECTRICAL/INSTRUMENT CLUSTER -
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING).
SECURITY INDICATOR
DESCRIPTION
A security indicator is standard equipment on all
instrument clusters. However, on vehicles not
equipped with the optional Vehicle Theft Security
System (VTSS), this indicator is electronically dis-
abled. The security indicator is located in the lower
right quadrant of the instrument cluster, between the
speedometer and the coolant temperature gauge. The
security indicator consists of a small round cutout in
the opaque layer of the instrument cluster overlay.
The dark outer layer of the overlay prevents the indi-
cator from being clearly visible when it is not illumi-
