DESCRIPTION





An engine temperature indicator is standard equipment on all instrument clusters. On Dodge vehicles, the engine temperature indicator is located near the bottom of the speedometer dial face of the cluster overlay, just right of center. On Chrysler vehicles, this indicator is located near the upper left corner of the cluster overlay, above the fuel gauge.

The engine temperature indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the International Control and Display Symbol icon for Engine Coolant Temperature in the opaque layer of the instrument cluster overlay. The dark outer layer of the overlay prevents the indicator from being clearly visible when it is not illuminated. A red Light Emitting Diode (LED) behind the cutout in the opaque layer of the overlay causes the indicator to appear in red through the translucent outer layer of the overlay when it is illuminated from behind by the LED, which is soldered onto the instrument cluster electronic circuit board.

The engine temperature indicator is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.
