2005 MERCEDES-BENZ SPRINTER wheel

The instrument cluster continually monitors the
status of the driver side front seat belt switch and
the airbag indicator circuit to determine the proper
seatbelt indicator response. The seat belt switch is
connected in series between the instrument cluster
and ground. The seat belt switch and the seatbelt
indicator driver circuit to the instrument cluster can
be diagnosed using conventional diagnostic tools and
methods. For proper diagnosis of the ACM, the air-
bag (SRS) indicator, or the instrument cluster cir-
cuitry that controls the seatbelt indicator, a DRBIIIt
scan tool is required. Refer to the appropriate diag-
nostic information.
SPEEDOMETER
DESCRIPTION
A speedometer is standard equipment on all instru-
ment clusters. The speedometer is located in the cen-
ter of the instrument cluster. The speedometer
consists of a movable gauge needle or pointer con-
trolled by the instrument cluster circuitry and a fixed
210 degree primary outer scale on the gauge dial face
that reads left-to-right either from ª0º to ª100º miles-
per-hour, or from ª0º to ª180º kilometers-per-hour,
depending upon the market for which the vehicle is
manufactured. Each version also has a secondary
inner scale on the gauge dial face that provides the
equivalent opposite units from the primary scale.
Text appearing on the cluster overlay near the left
end of each scale abbreviates the unit of measure,
either ªmphº or ªkm/hº.
The speedometer graphics are white against a
black field, 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 white graphics appear amber. The
orange gauge needle is internally illuminated. Gauge
illumination is provided by Light Emitting Diode
(LED) units soldered onto the instrument cluster
electronic circuit board. The speedometer is serviced
as a unit with the instrument cluster.
OPERATION
The speedometer gives an indication to the vehicle
operator of the vehicle road speed. This gauge is con-
trolled by the instrument cluster circuit board based
upon cluster programming and electronic messages
received by the cluster from the Controller Anti-lock
Brake (CAB) over the Controller Area Network
(CAN) data bus. The speedometer is an air core mag-
netic unit that receives battery current on the instru-
ment cluster electronic circuit board when the
instrument cluster detects that the ignition switch isin the On position. The cluster 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 provides the following
features:
²Vehicle Speed Message- Each time the clus-
ter receives a vehicle speed message from the CAB it
will calculate the correct vehicle speed reading and
position the gauge needle at that relative speed posi-
tion on the gauge scale. The gauge needle will con-
tinue to be positioned at the actual vehicle speed
position on the gauge scale until the ignition switch
is turned to the Off position.
²Communication Error-
If the cluster fails to
receive a speedometer message, it will hold the gauge
needle at the last indication for about three seconds, or
until the ignition switch is turned to the Off position,
whichever occurs first. After three seconds, the gauge
needle will return to the left end of the gauge scale.
The CAB continually monitors the four wheel
speed sensors to determine the vehicle road speed.
The CAB then sends the proper vehicle speed mes-
sages to the instrument cluster. For proper diagnosis
of the wheel speed sensors, the CAB, the CAN data
bus, or the electronic message inputs to the instru-
ment cluster that control the speedometer, a DRBIIIt
scan tool is required. Refer to the appropriate diag-
nostic information.
TACHOMETER
DESCRIPTION
A tachometer is standard equipment on all instru-
ment clusters. The tachometer is located to the left of
the speedometer, to the left of center in the instru-
ment cluster. The tachometer consists of a movable
gauge needle or pointer controlled by the instrument
cluster circuitry and a fixed 45 degree scale on the
gauge dial face that reads left-to-right from ª0º to ª7º.
The text ªrpm X 1000º imprinted on the cluster over-
lay near the left end of the gauge scale identifies that
each number on the tachometer scale is to be multi-
plied by 1000 rpm.
The tachometer graphics are white against a black
field, 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 white graphics appear amber. The orange
gauge needle is internally illuminated. Gauge illumi-
nation is provided by Light Emitting Diode (LED)
units soldered onto the instrument cluster electronic
circuit board. The tachometer is serviced as a unit
with the instrument cluster.
VAINSTRUMENT CLUSTER 8J - 23
SEATBELT INDICATOR (Continued)

OPERATION
The tachometer gives an indication to the vehicle oper-
ator of the engine speed. This gauge is controlled by the
instrument cluster circuit board based upon cluster pro-
gramming and electronic messages received by the clus-
ter from the Engine Control Module (ECM) over the
Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus. The tachome-
ter is an air core magnetic unit that receives battery cur-
rent on the instrument cluster electronic circuit board
when the instrument cluster detects that the ignition
switch is in the On position. The cluster is programmed
to move the gauge needle back to the low end of the
scale after the ignition switch is turned to the Off posi-
tion. The instrument cluster circuitry controls the gauge
needle position and provides the following features:
²Engine Speed Message- Each time the cluster
receives an engine speed message from the ECM it
will calculate the correct engine speed reading and
position the gauge needle at that relative speed posi-
tion on the gauge scale. The gauge needle will con-
tinually be repositioned at the relative engine speed
position on the gauge scale until the engine stops
running, or until the ignition switch is turned to the
Off position, whichever occurs first.
²Communication Error- If the cluster fails to
receive an engine speed message, it will hold the
gauge needle at the last indication for about three
seconds, or until the ignition switch is turned to the
Off position, whichever occurs first. After three sec-
onds, the gauge needle will return to the left end of
the gauge scale.
The ECM continually monitors the crankshaft position
sensor to determine the engine speed. The ECM then
sends the proper engine speed messages to the instru-
ment cluster. For proper diagnosis of the crankshaft posi-
tion sensor, the ECM, the CAN data bus, or the
electronic message inputs to the instrument cluster that
control the tachometer, a DRBIIItscan tool is required.
Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.
TRACTION CONTROL
INDICATOR
DESCRIPTION
A traction control (ASR) indicator is standard equip-
ment on all instrument clusters. The traction control
indicator is located near the center of the speedometer
in the instrument cluster. The traction control indicator
consists of an ª!º (exclamation point) imprinted within a
triangular cutout in the opaque layer of the instrument
cluster overlay. The dark outer layer of the overlay pre-
vents the indicator from being clearly visible when it is
not illuminated. An amber Light Emitting Diode (LED)
behind the cutout in the opaque layer of the overlay
causes the exclamation point to appear silhouettedagainst an amber field 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 traction
control indicator is serviced as a unit with the instru-
ment cluster.
OPERATION
The traction control (ASR) indicator gives several
indications to the vehicle operator concerning the
operating status of the traction control (ASR) system.
The traction control 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 Controller Anti-lock
Brake (CAB) over the Controller Area Network
(CAN) data bus. The traction control 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 instru-
ment cluster detects that the ignition switch is in the
On position. Therefore, the LED will always be off
when the ignition switch is in any position except
On. The LED only illuminates when it is provided a
path to ground by the instrument cluster transistor.
The instrument cluster will turn on the traction con-
trol indicator for the following reasons:
²Bulb Test-
Each time the ignition switch is
turned to the On position the traction control indicator
is illuminated for about two seconds as a bulb test.
²Traction Control (ASR) Indicator Lamp-On
Message-
Each time the cluster receives a traction
control indicator lamp-on message from the CAB, the
indicator will be illuminated. This indicator can be
flashed on and off, or illuminated solid, as dictated by
the CAB message. The indicator is illuminated solid
when the traction control system has been deactivated;
and is flashed when the traction control is activated or
when the driven wheels lose traction with the traction
control deactivated. The indicator remains flashing or
illuminated solid until the cluster receives a lamp-off
message from the CAB, or until the ignition switch is
turned to the Off position, whichever occurs first.
The CAB continually monitors the traction control
(ASR) switch and the four wheel speed sensors to deter-
mine the correct operating mode for the traction control
system. The CAB then sends the proper lamp-on or lamp-
off messages to the instrument cluster. See the owner's
manual in the vehicle glove box for more information on
the features, use, activation and deactivation of the trac-
tion control (ASR) system. For proper diagnosis of the
traction control system, the CAB, the CAN data bus, or
the electronic message inputs to the instrument cluster
that control the traction control indicator, a DRBIIIt
scan tool is required. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic
information.

8L - 2 LAMPS/LIGHTING - EXTERIORVA

FRONT FOG LAMPS
Vehicles equipped with optional front fog lamps
have a front fog lamp relay installed in a relay
bracket located below the forward edge of the driver
side front seat cushion within the driver side front
seat riser, a fog lamp switch installed in the cluster
bezel on the instrument panel outboard of the steer-
ing column, and a fog lamp bulb installed in each of
the two front lamp units. The front fog lamps have a
path to ground at all times through their connection
to the vehicle wire harness. The headlamp switch cir-
cuitry of the left (lighting) control stalk of the multi-
function switch controls front fog lamp operation by
providing battery current to the front fog lamp relay
only when the low beam headlamps are selected. The
fog lamp switch controls front fog lamp operation by
energizing or de-energizing the front fog lamp relay
control coil.
HAZARD WARNING LAMPS
With the hazard switch in the On position, the
hazard switch button illuminates and the right and
left turn signal indicators as well as the right and
left turn signal lamps begin to flash on and off. When
the hazard warning system is activated, the hazard
switch circuitry within the multi-function switch and
the wipers, turn signals and engine start control
module electronic circuitry within the fuse block will
repeatedly energize and de-energize the turn signal
relay located in the fuse block. The turn signal relay
switches battery current from a fused B(+) fuse in
the fuse block to the turn signal indicators and the
turn signal lamps. The flashing of the hazard switch
button illumination lamp is also controlled by the
output from the turn signal relay.
HEADLAMPS
The headlamp system includes the exterior lighting
switches integral to the left (lighting) control stalk of
the multi-function switch as well as the low and high
beam bulbs installed in the right and left front lamp
units (Fig. 1). The headlamp bulbs have a path to
ground at all times through the vehicle wire harness.
The exterior lighting switches control headlamp oper-
ation by providing battery current to the selected low
or high beam bulbs. Each front lamp unit includes
two integral adjustment screws to be used for static
horizontal and vertical aiming of the headlamp beam
reflectors.
HEADLAMP LEVELING
The headlamp leveling system includes a leveling
actuator motor integral to each front lamp unit, and
a rotary thumbwheel actuated headlamp leveling
switch in the cluster bezel on the instrument panel
outboard of the steering column. The headlamp lev-eling system allows the headlamp beam reflectors to
be adjusted to one of four vertical positions to com-
pensate for changes in inclination caused by the load-
ing of the vehicle suspension. The actuator motors
are mechanically connected through an integral
pushrod to an adjustable headlamp reflector. The
headlamp leveling switch is a resistor multiplexed
unit that provides one of four voltage outputs to the
headlamp leveling motors. The headlamp leveling
motors will move the headlamps to the selected posi-
tion based upon the voltage input received from the
switch. The headlamp leveling motors and switch
have a path to ground at all times. The headlamp
leveling components operate on battery current
received through the park lamps circuit so that the
system will only operate when the exterior lighting is
turned on.
PARK LAMPS
The park lamps system includes the exterior light-
ing switches integral to the left (lighting) control
stalk of the multi-function switch (Fig. 1), the front
park/side marker lamps, the front position lamps, the
rear park lamps, the rear side marker lamps, the
optional clearance lamps, and the license plate
lamps. Each of these lamps are provided with a path
to ground at all times through the vehicle wire har-
ness. The exterior lighting switches control the park
lamp operation by providing battery current through
the park lamps circuit to the appropriate lamp bulbs.
TURN SIGNAL LAMPS

system illuminates the selected right or left turn sig-
nal indicator and the turn signal lamps begin to
flash. The turn signal lamps include a bulb integral
to each front lamp unit and each tail lamp unit, as
well as a repeater lamp bulb located on each front
fender above the front wheels. When the turn signal
system is activated, the turn signal switch circuitry
within the multi-function switch and the electronic
circuitry of the wipers, turn signals and engine start
control module within the fuse block will repeatedly
energize and de-energize the turn signal relay
located in the fuse block. The turn signal relay
switches battery current from a fused ignition switch
output fuse in the fuse block to the appropriate turn
signal indicator and turn signal lamps.
The ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC)
contactless relay will generate repetitive, audible
turn signal ªclickº sounds to emulate the sounds of a
conventional electro-mechanical turn signal flasher
at one of two rates to coincide with the flashing of
the turn signals. The slow rate emulates normal turn
signal operation, while the fast rate emulates ªbulb
outº turn signal operation.
