Traction Control Indicator Lamp: Description and Operation
ESP With BAS Indicator - Description
DESCRIPTION
An Electronic Stability Program (ESP)/Brake Assist System (BAS) indicator is standard equipment on all instrument clusters. This indicator is located
near the bottom of the cluster overlay, between the speedometer and the tachometer.
The ESP/BAS indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the text ESP BAS 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.
The ESP/BAS indicator is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.
