Temperature Gauge: Description and Operation
Description
DESCRIPTION
An engine coolant temperature gauge is standard equipment on all instrument clusters. This gauge is located on the right side of the instrument cluster, to
the right of the tachometer. The gauge consists of a movable gauge needle or pointer controlled by the instrument cluster circuitry and a fixed 120 degree
gauge scale on the cluster overlay that reads left-to-right from C (or Cold) to H (or Hot). An International Control and Display Symbol icon for Engine
Coolant Temperature is located on the cluster overlay, above the hub of the gauge needle.
The engine coolant temperature gauge graphics are white, gray and black against a black field except for a single red graduation at the high end of the
gauge scale, making them clearly visible within the instrument cluster in daylight. When illuminated from behind by the panel lamps dimmer controlled
cluster illumination lighting with the ignition switch in the ON or START positions or with the exterior lamps turned ON, the graphics all retain their
unilluminated colors and appearance. The orange gauge needle has internal optical illumination. Gauge illumination is provided by Light Emitting Diode
(LED) units soldered onto the instrument cluster electronic circuit board.
The engine coolant temperature gauge is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.
