Instrument Cluster
Overview
Data is provided to the instrument cluster from other subsystem modules in the form of controller area network
(CAN) messages. The instrument cluster identifies the signals and displays the appropriate message in the
message center. Most messages are accompanied by a chime or series of chimes which are requested by the
module generating the message. The driver can view system status messages which are current within the
instrument cluster software by pressing and holding the trip reset button for more than three seconds, the
information display will then display the current messages in priority order. For more information, refer to the
relevant workshop manual section.

Car configuration file (CCF)

CAUTION: If a new instrument cluster is to be installed, the instrument cluster renewal procedure
must be carried out using the approved diagnostic system. This will ensure that the CCF data is correctly
transferred from the central junction box (CJB) to the replacement cluster. The CCF will also need to be
updated using the approved diagnostic system if the vehicle is modified in service from its original factory
specification. This can include the fitting of non-standard wheels and/or tires and optional accessory dealer
install components with an electrical interface, such as park distance control.

The CCF contains all relevant data about the specification and market condition of the applicable vehicle,
immobilization codes and driver personal settings. This information is retained in the CJB, the engine control
module (ECM) and the instrument cluster enabling each system module to detect which systems and
components are installed to the vehicle. The information is continuously transferred between these three system
modules to ensure that the data is constantly backed-up between the modules.

Inspection and Verification

1 . Verify the customer concern.

2 . Confirm which, if any, warning lights and/or messages were displayed on the instrument cluster. For a list of
messages, refer to workshop manual section 413-08 - Information and Message Center.

3 . Visually inspect for obvious electrical faults.

Fuses Central and battery junction boxes Megafuses
Wiring harness
Damaged, loose or corroded connectors
Controller area network (CAN) circuits
Instrument cluster
Central junction box (CJB)
Engine control module (ECM)

4 . If an obvious cause for an observed or reported concern is found, correct the cause (if possible) before
proceeding to the next step.

5 . Use the approved diagnostic system or a scan tool to retrieve any DTCs before moving onto the DTC index.

Make sure that all DTCs are cleared following rectification.

DTC index
NOTE:
Generic scan tools may not read the codes listed, or may read only 5-digit codes. Match the 5 digits from the
scan tool to the first 5 digits of the 7-digit code listed to identify the fault (the last 2 digits give extra
information read by the manufacturer-approved diagnostic system).
