Overdrive Indicator Lamp: Description and Operation
Tow/Haul Indicator - Description
DESCRIPTION
A tow/haul indicator is standard equipment on all instrument clusters. The tow/haul indicator is located below the minor gauge set on the left side of the
cluster.
The tow/haul indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the text TOW/HAUL 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. An amber Light Emitting Diode (LED) behind the cutout
in the opaque layer of the overlay causes the indicator to appear in amber 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.
When the exterior lighting is turned ON, the illumination intensity of the tow/haul indicator is dimmable, which is adjusted along with the cluster general
illumination lighting using the panel lamps dimmer thumbwheel on the headlamp switch.
The tow/haul indicator is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.
