Temperature Display
The outside temperature display located in the cluster will show an inaccurate reading (typically off more than 10 degrees F.) but will eventually update.
Update time will appear to be delayed and could take longer than one hour depending on driving conditions. A vehicle speed in excess of 32 kph (20
mph) for three consecutive minutes is presently required for an update to occur.
Erroneous DTC(s)
Airbag indicator DTC B1202 may be set even though the airbag indicator lamp does not stay illuminated after bulb check. If the vehicle is a built up
export (BUX) Chrysler sedan it may set a rear wiper indicator B1225 or B1226.
Instrument Cluster Language
Some CCNs have a provision to select language in the reconfigurable display. The French translations for some of the displayed messages are
indecipherable.
DIAGNOSIS:
If the vehicle operator describes the Symptom/Condition, perform the Repair Procedure.
