Vehicle Status Messages Displayed In the VF Display

VEHICLE STATUS MESSAGES DISPLAYED IN THE VF DISPLAY
During normal operation, if a condition is present, the cluster will inform the driver by displaying one of the following messages in the VF display. These messages will alternate (1 second ON / 1 second OFF) with the odometer if the vehicle speed is 0 (zero). If multiple conditions exist, the cluster will cycle through all messages including the odometer/trip odometer.

When the vehicle speed is greater than 0 (zero), only the odometer will be displayed. The VF will only display faults while the condition exists. Messages with more than 6 characters will be scrolled.

The displaying of P-codes will take priority over any Vehicle Status Messages and odometer/trip odometer information in the VF display.
