INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
DESCRIPTION
The instrumentation gauges are contained in a
subdial assembly within the instrument cluster. The
individual gauges are not serviceable. If one of the
cluster gauges becomes faulty, the entire cluster
would require replacement.
The Mechanical Instrument Cluster (MIC) with a
tachometer is equipped with a electronic vacuum flu-
orescent transmission range indicator (PRND3L),
odometer, and trip odometer display.
The MIC without a tachometer is equipped with a
Light Emitting Diode (LED) transmission range indi-
cator (PRND3L) and a vacuum fluorescent odometer
display.
The MIC is equipped with the following warning
lamps.
²Lift Gate Ajar
²Low Fuel Level
²Low Windshield Washer Fluid Level
²Cruise
²Battery Voltage
²Fasten Seat Belt
²Door Ajar
²Coolant Temperature
²Anti-Lock Brake

²Airbag
²Traction Control
²Autostick
Export Only- uses a message center that displays
the following telltales:
²Turns Signals
²High Beam
²Tire Pressure Monitoring (TPM)²Glow Plug (Export Only)
²Supplemental Cabin Heater (Export Only)WATER IN FUEL LAMP - EXPORT
The Water In Fuel Lamp is located in the message
center. When moisture is found within the fuel sys-
tem, the sensor sends a message via the PCI data
bus to the instrument cluster. The MIC illuminates
the bulb in the message center, The sensor is located
underneath the vehicle, directly above the rear axle.
The sensor is housed within the fuel filter/water sep-
arator assembly cover. The sensor is not serviced sep-
arately. If found defective, the entire assembly cover
must be replaced.
OPERATION
Refer to the vehicle Owner's Manual for operation
instructions and conditions for the Instrument Clus-
ter Gauges.
WATER IN FUEL LAMP/SENSOR - EXPORT
The Water In Fuel Sensor is a resistive type
switch. It is calibrated to sense the different resis-
tance between diesel fuel and water. When water
enters the fuel system, it is caught in the bottom of
the fuel filter/water separator assembly, where the
sensor is located. Water has less resistance than die-
sel fuel. The sensor then sends a PCI data bus mes-
sage to the instrument cluster to illuminate the
lamp.
If the lamp is inoperative, perform the self diag-
nostic test on the instrument cluster to check the
lamp operation before continuing diagnosis.

OVERHEAD CONSOLE
DESCRIPTION
Three overhead consoles options are available on
this vehicle. These options are:
²The Electronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC)
²The Compass Mini-Trip Computer (CMTC)
All consoles are equipped with two reading/cour-
tesy lamps and if the vehicle is equipped with a
power liftgate or power sliding door(s) the overhead
console will also include switches for these features.
The overhead console is mounted with one screw and
two snap clips to a molded plastic retainer bracket
located above the headliner.
DESCRIPTION - COMPASS
All overhead consoles include compass information.
While in the compass/temperature mode, the com-
pass will display the direction in which the vehicle is
pointed using the eight major compass headings
(Examples: north is N, northeast is NE). The self-cal-
ibrating compass unit requires no adjusting in nor-
mal use. The only calibration that may be necessary
is to drive the vehicle in three complete circles at 5
to 8 kilometers-per-hour (3 to 5 miles-per-hour), on
level ground, for a minimum of forty-eight seconds.
This will reorient the compass unit to its vehicle.
8M - 2 OVERHEAD CONSOLERS

The compass unit will also compensate for magne-
tism the vehicle may acquire during normal use.
However, avoid placing anything magnetic directly on
the roof of the vehicle. Magnetic mounts for an
antenna, a repair order hat, or a funeral procession
flag can exceed the compensating ability of the com-
pass unit if placed on the roof panel. The use of mag-
netic tools on the fasteners that hold the overhead
console assembly to the roof header can also affect
compass operation. If the compass operation is
erratic and roof magnetization is suspected (Refer to
8 - ELECTRICAL/OVERHEAD CONSOLE - STAN-
DARD PROCEDURE - COMPASS DEMAGNETIZ-
ING).
DESCRIPTION - TEMPERATURE
All overhead consoles include temperature informa-
tion. The temperature displays the outside ambient
temperature in whole degrees. The temperature dis-
play can be toggled from Fahrenheit to Celsius by
selecting the desired U.S./Metric option from the cus-
tomer programmable features. The displayed temper-
ature is not an instant reading of conditions, but an
average temperature. It may take the temperature
display several minutes to respond to a major tem-
perature change, such as driving out of a heated
garage into winter temperatures.
When the ignition switch is turned to the Off posi-
tion, the last displayed temperature reading stays in
the electronic control modules (CMTC, EVIC) mem-
ory. When the ignition switch is turned to the On
position again, the electronic module will display the
memory temperature for one minute; then update the
display to the current average temperature reading
within five minutes.
The temperature function is supported by an ambi-
ent temperature sensor. The sensor is mounted near
the front and center of the vehicle, and is hard wired
to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM). The PCM
sends temperature status messages to the module
over the Programmable Communication Interface
(PCI) data bus circuit.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
OVERHEAD CONSOLE
Any diagnosis of the overhead console should
begin with the use of the DRB IIItdiagnostic
tool. For information on the use of the DRB
IIIt, refer to the appropriate Diagnostic Proce-
dures information.If the problem with the overhead console is an
inaccurate or dashed (- -) display, refer to SELF-DI-
AGNOSTIC TEST. If the problem with the overhead
console is incorrect Vacuum Fluorescent Display
(VFD) dimming levels, use a DRB IIItscan tool and
the proper diagnostic procedures information to test
for the correct dimming message inputs being
received from the Body Control Module (BCM) or
Front Control Module (FCM) over the Programmable
Communications Interface (PCI) data bus circuit. If
the problem is a no-display condition, use the follow-
ing procedures.
Inspect the related wiring harness connectors for
broken, bent, pushed out, or corroded terminals.
Refer to the appropriate wiring information.

start) fuse in the integrated power module. If OK, go
to Step 4. If not OK, repair the shorted circuit or
component as required and replace the faulty fuse.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the On position.
Check for battery voltage at the fused ignition switch
output (run/start) fuse in the integrated power mod-
ule. If OK, go to Step 5. If not OK, repair the open
fused ignition switch output (run/start) circuit to the
ignition switch as required.
(5) Turn the ignition switch to the Off position.
Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable.
Remove the overhead console. Check for continuity
between the ground circuit cavity of the roof wire
harness connector for the electronics module and a
good ground. There should be continuity. If OK, go to
Step 6. If not OK, repair the open ground circuit as
required.
(6) Connect the battery negative cable. Check for
battery voltage at the fused B(+) circuit cavity of the
roof wire harness connector for the electronics mod-
ule. If OK, go to Step 7. If not OK, repair the open
fused B(+) circuit to the fused B(+) fuse in the inte-
grated power module as required.
(7) Turn the ignition switch to the On position.
Check for battery voltage at the fused ignition switch
output (run/start) circuit cavity of the roof wire har-
ness connector for the electronics module. If OK,
