Temperature Warning Lamp/Indicator: Description and Operation
Description
DESCRIPTION
An engine coolant temperature indicator is standard equipment on instrument clusters of vehicles not equipped with the optional steering wheel buttons.
This indicator is located directly to the right of the speedometer needle hub. On vehicles equipped with the optional steering wheel buttons, this indicator
is replaced by the display of an icon and textual message in the cluster multi-function display.
The engine coolant temperature indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the International Control and Display Symbol icon for Engine Coolant
Temperature 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. A red Light Emitting Diode (LED) behind the cutout in the opaque layer of the overlay causes the indicator to appear in red
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 engine coolant temperature indicator is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.
