Charge Lamp/Indicator: Description and Operation
Description
DESCRIPTION
A charging indicator is standard equipment on instrument clusters of vehicles not equipped with the optional steering wheel buttons. This indicator is
located above the multi-function display, between the speedometer and the tachometer. 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 charging indicator consists of a stencil-like cutout of the International Control and Display Symbol icon for Battery Charging Condition 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 charging indicator is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.
