CLUSTER

DESCRIPTION

The instrument cluster (1) for this model is an Electro-
Mechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) that is located
in the instrument panel above the steering column
opening, directly in front of the driver. The remainder
of the EMIC, including the mounts and the electrical
connections, are concealed within the instrument
panel behind the cluster bezel (2). Besides analog
gauges and indicators, the EMIC module incorporates
a single blue-green digital Vacuum Fluorescent Dis-
play (VFD) unit for displaying odometer/trip odometer
information, engine hours, automatic transmission
gear selector position (PRNDL), several warning or
reminder indications and certain diagnostic informa-
tion. The instrument cluster for this model also
includes the hardware and software necessary to
serve as the electronic body control module and is
sometimes referred to as the Cab Compartment Node
or CCN.

The EMIC gauges and indicators are visible through a
dedicated opening in the cluster bezel on the instru-
ment panel and are protected by a clear plastic cluster
lens that is integral to a cluster lens, hood and mask
unit (3). Just behind the cluster lens is the cluster
hood and an integral cluster mask, which are con-
structed of molded black plastic. Two different masks
are used, one with black rings and one with silver
rings around the gauge openings. The cluster hood
serves as a visor and shields the face of the cluster
from ambient light and reflections to reduce glare,
while the cluster mask serves to separate and define
the individual gauges and indicators of the EMIC. A
black plastic odometer/trip odometer switch button
protrudes through dedicated holes in the cluster mask
and the cluster lens, located near the lower edge of
the cluster just to the left of the fuel gauge. The
molded plastic EMIC lens, hood and mask unit has
four integral mounting tabs, two each on the upper
and lower edges of the unit. These mounting tabs are
used to secure the EMIC to the molded plastic instru-
ment panel cluster carrier with four screws.

The rear of the cluster housing and the EMIC elec-
tronic circuitry are protected by a molded plastic rear
cover (1), which is secured to the cluster housing with
fourteen screws, while eight screws installed around
the outside perimeter of the rear cover secure it to the
cluster lens, hood and mask unit. The rear cover
includes clearance holes for the cluster connector receptacles. The connector receptacles on the back of the cluster
electronic circuit board connect the EMIC to the vehicle electrical system through three take outs with connectors
from the instrument panel wire harness.
