INFORMATION DISPLAY : System Diagram
INFOID:0000000001691278
INFORMATION DISPLAY : System DescriptionINFOID:0000000001691279
FUNCTION
The information display can indicate the following items.
• Intelligent Key operation information
• Maintenance information
• Warning/Indication messages (Door/liftgate/liftgate glass open, low fuel, low washer fluid, parking brake, A/T
oil temp)
DOOR OPEN WARNING
This warning appears when the ignition switch is ON and the front door LH, front door RH, rear door LH, rear
door RH, back door or glass hatch is opened. The BCM receives a door switch signal from the front door
switch LH, front door switch RH, rear door switch LH, rear door switch RH, back door latch and glass hatch
ajar switch. The BCM sends the door switch signal to the combination meter via CAN communication lines.
Then, when the ignition switch is turned ON, the warning message is displayed.
LOW FUEL WARNING
This warning appears when the fuel level in the fuel tank is less than approximately 11.4 (3 US gal, 2.5 Imp
gal). A variable resistor signal is supplied to the combination meter from the fuel level sensor unit to determine
the amount of fuel in the fuel tank.
LOW WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID WARNING
This warning appears when the windshield washer fluid level is low. When the windshield washer fluid level is
low, the washer level switch provides a ground signal to the combination meter (unified meter control unit).
Once fluid is added, the message will stay on for 30 seconds and then turn off.
PARKING BRAKE INDICATOR
When the parking brake is applied, the parking brake switch provides a ground signal to the combination
meter (unified meter control unit). Then, when the igni tion switch is turned ON and vehicle speed is greater
than 7 km/h (4 MPH), the message is displayed.
Refer to Owner’s Manual for additional information display items.
