WARNINGS AND INDICATORS

WARNINGS AND INDICATORS Hazard Indicator

If the Hazard Switch (X220) is depressed, a pulsing voltage is applied to the Hazard Indicator which is permanently grounded by ground E200.

Direction Indicator

If the Direction Indicator Switch (X116) is turned on, a pulsing voltage is applied from the Flasher Unit (Z128) to the Direction Indicator which is permanently grounded by ground E200.

Trailer Indicator

With the Direction Indicator Switch (X116) turned on, the Flasher Unit (Z128) also applies a pulsing voltage to the Trailer Indicator which is permanently grounded by ground E200.

SRS Indicators

The SRS Indicators are controlled by the Air Bag Diagnostic Control Module (Z151) and the SRS Indicator Control Circuit of the Instrument Cluster (Z142) to indicate SRS System faults.

Low Fuel Warning Indicator

When the fuel gauge sender’s resistance falls below approximately 25 Ohms (6 liters/1.5 US gallons), the Low Fuel Warning Indicator will illuminate to warn the driver.

Main Beam Indicator

With the Headlamps turned on the Main Lighting Switch (X145), battery voltage is applied to the Main Beam Indicator which is also permanently grounded by ground E200.

Catalyst Warning Indicator (Japan Vehicles Only)

In case of a catalyst overheat, the catalyst thermocouples send a signal to the Catalyst Warning ECU’s which then provide battery voltage to the Catalyst Warning Relay (K172). The relay is energized and provides ground to the Catalyst Warning Indicator. The Catalyst Warning Indicator is also grounded by a 3 second timer as a bulb check.

Differential Lock Indicator

The Differential Lock Indicator receives battery voltage with the Ignition Switch (X134) in position II. It is grounded by the Differential Lock Switch (X238) when the Differential is locked.

Fasten Seat Belt Indicator (Except Japan Vehicles Only)

The Fasten Seat Belt Indicator receives battery voltage with the Ignition Switch (X134) in position II. The indicator is also grounded through the MultiFunction Unit (MFU) (Z148) and the Driver’s Seat Buckle Switch (X120). If the Driver’s Seat Belt is buckled the Driver’s Seat Belt Buckle Switch opens and the Indicator turns off.
