Mechanical Instrument Cluster (MIC)

Lamps (Hardwired)
The following lamps are hardwired in the cluster and are not part of the self-test:


- ABS (Amber)

- Brake Warning (Red)

- Full Time 4WD

- Part Time 4WD

- High Beam

- Left Turn Signal

- Right Turn Signal



Lamps (CCD)
The following lamps are controlled by the cluster via CCD messages. They are actuated during the self-test procedure:


- Airbag

- Cruise Control

- Low Fuel Warning

NOTE: The seat belt and low washer fluid switches are hardwired to the cluster. The cluster then decides if the lamp should illuminate.
