TACHOMETER : System Diagram
INFOID:0000000006221698
TACHOMETER : System DescriptionINFOID:0000000006221699
 ECM converts the pulse signal provided by the crankshaft position sensor to an engine speed signal and
transmits it to the combination meter via CAN communication.
 The combination meter indicates the engine speed to the tachometer according to the engine speed signal
received via CAN communication.
ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE GAUGE

 ECM reads the engine coolant temperature signal from the engine coolant temperature sensor and transmits
the signal to the combination meter via CAN communication.
 The combination meter indicates the engine coolant temperature to the engine coolant temperature gauge
according to the engine coolant temperature signal received via CAN communication.

SYSTEM
When recognizing an engine start, the combination meter controls the following items for producing the effect.
 Speedometer
 Tachometer
 Engine coolant temperature gauge
 Fuel gauge
 Engine oil pressure gauge
 Voltmeter
 Meter illumination
Meter and Illumination Operations During Engine-start Effect
The combination meter controls the following items during the engine-start effect.
NOTE:
The pointers are stopped and illumination is turned off while cranking the engine.
Engine Start Judgement
The combination meter judges “engine-start” and activates the engine-start effect only once when the follow-
ing operational conditions are all satisfied.
NOTE:
Engine-start effect exits when any of the above operat ional conditions is cancelled during the engine-start
effect.
Signal path
The combination meter judges “engine-start,” according to the following signals and activates the engine-start
effect function.
DRIVER WELCOME FUNCTION
Control item Operation
Speedometer Sweeps the pointer.
Tachometer Sweeps the pointer.
Engine coolant temperature gauge Stops the pointer.
Fuel gauge Stops the pointer.
Engine oil pressure gauge Stops the pointer.
Voltmeter Stops the pointer.
Meter illumination Pointers Turns on the illumination at the effect level.
Information display Turns on the illumination at the normal brightness level.
Other than those above Increases the brightness to the effect level in stages.
Condition
Ignition switch ON position
Vehicle speed Less than 1 km/h (0.6 MPH)
Engine state Other than the time of cranking the engine
500 rpm or more
Information display
(SETTING) The setting of “EFFECT” is “ON.”
Signal name Signal path

On Board Diagnosis FunctionINFOID:0000000006221719
ON BOARD DIAGNOSIS ITEM
The combination meter allows the following diagnosis items with the on-board diagnosis function.
METHOD OF STARTING
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. While pressing the trip reset switch (1), turn ignition switch ON.
3. If the diagnosis function is activated with “trip A” displayed, the
mileage on “trip A” is reset to “0000.0”. (The same way for “trip
B”.)
4. Make sure that the trip meter displays “0000.0”.
5. Press the trip reset switch at least 3 times. (Wit hin 7 seconds after the ignition switch is turned ON.)
6. The combination meter is turned to self-diagnosis mode.  Speedometer, tachometer, engine coolant temper ature gauge, fuel gauge, engine oil pressure gauge,
and voltmeter return to zero, simultaneously.
 The dot matrix dots on the information display (1) blink alter-
nately.
NOTE:
 Check combination meter power supply and ground circuit when the self-diagnosis mode of the combi- nation meter does not start. Replace combination meter if power supply and ground circuit are normal.
 If any of the dots are not displayed, replace combination meter.
