DC/AC Inverter: Testing and Inspection
INSPECTION OF COMPONENTS
INVERTER (WITH EL TYPE CLUSTER)
The inverter is located in the instrument cluster and it converts the direct current (DC) into the alternating current (AC).
Illumination power applied to inverter in the cluster is converted into the alternating current (AC), which is supplied EL (Electroluminescent Lamp)
sheets to be illuminated.
1. Remove the inverter in the instrument cluster.
2. Apply battery voltage (DC 13.5 V) to the inverter in the cluster and measure the output voltage between terminal 1 and 2.
3. Also measure the output frequency between the terminals.
4. If the value is not as shown in the table, replace the inverter.
