Description and operationDirection indicator

Direction indicator

The LH direction indicator warning lamp (C0230) receives a feed from the direction indicator switch (C0036) on a GR wire, via the passenger compartment fuse box (C0581 and C0590). The RH direction indicator warning lamp (C0233) receives a feed from the direction indicator switch (C0036) on a GW wire, via the passenger compartment fuse box (C0581 and C0590).

Oil temperature (all except Japan)

The oil temperature warning lamp (C0234) receives a feed from the oil temperature unit (C1666) on a NU wire.

Snow mode (Japan only)

Operation of the snow mode warning lamp (C0234) is controlled by a Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) signal from the ECM (C0635), which is input to the instrument pack on a WG wire. This signal also operates the gear ratio indicator in the odometer display and the gearbox fault warning lamp.

Oil pressure

The earth route for the oil pressure warning lamp (C0230) is through the oil pressure switch (C0187) on a WN wire. When there is no engine oil pressure, the switch is closed and the WN wire is connected to earth through the switch body.

Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)

The ABS warning lamp (C0234) is operated by the ABS modulator (C0501) connecting a UR wire to earth.

Engine bay cooling fan

The engine bay cooling fan warning lamp (C0234) is operated by the ECM (C0159 on MPi MEMS 1.9 and VVC MEMS 2J models, C0634 on MPi MEMS 3 models) connecting a GR wire to earth.

Rear fog guard

When the rear fog guard lamps are illuminated, the rear fog guard warning lamp (C0233) receives a feed from the multi function ECU (C0016) on a UY wire.

Gearbox fault (EM-CVT models only)

Operation of the gearbox fault warning lamp is controlled by a Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) signal from the ECM (C0635), which is input to the instrument pack (C0234) on a WG wire. This signal also operates the gear ratio indicator in the odometer display. On Japanese EM-CVT models the signal also operates the snow mode warning lamp.

Boot open

The boot open warning lamp (C0234) is operated by the load space lamp switch (C0107) on a PR wire.
