WATER TEMPERATURE GAUGE
The water temperature gauge indicates the engine coolant temperature.
Thermal transmitter provides a engine coolant temperature signal to combination meter for water temperature
gauge.
TACHOMETER
The tachometer indicates engine speed in revolution per minutes (rpm). ECM provides an engine speed sig-
nal to combination meter for tachometer.
FUEL GAUGE
The fuel gauge indicates the approximate fuel level in the fuel tank.
The fuel gauge is regulated by a variable ground signal supplied
Ifrom body grounds B10 and B18
I through terminal 3 of the fuel level sensor unit and
I through terminal 2 (TD27Ti engine) or 1 (ZD30DDTi engine) of the fuel level sensor unit
I to combination meter terminal 13 for the fuel gauge.
SPEEDOMETER
The combination meter receives a signal from vehicle speed sensor. The speedometer converts the signal into
the vehicle speed displayed.
AMBIENT TEMPERATURE GAUGE
Ambient temperature sensor provides the signal for ambient temperature to combination meter.
