Test 9A - Electro/Mechanical Instrument Cluster Diagnostics
NOTE:
For connector terminal identification, see CONNECTOR IDENTIFICATION
. For wiring diagram, see WIRING DIAGRAMS
article in this section.
CAUTION:
Always turn ignition off prior to disconnecting or connecting any module connector.
NOTE:
Electro/Mechanical Instrument Cluster (MIC) is an electronic cluster receiving information from CCD link and displaying information in analog gauges. These test procedures cover both base and premium MIC.
- Using DRB, read instrument cluster I.D. status. If DRB displays EIC/US, go to next step. If DRB does not display EIC/US, identify instrument cluster problem and perform test as specified. See INSTRUMENT CLUSTER PROBLEM DIRECTORY

Problem Perform TEST Defective Gauges TEST 10A - FAULTY GAUGE Defective Odometer TEST 11A - ELECTRO/MECH Defective Warning Lights TEST 12A - FAULTY ELECTRO/MECH Improper Cluster Illumination TEST 8A - EIC - Turn ignition off. Disconnect MIC connector. Check connector, and clean or repair connector as necessary. Perform TEST VER-1B . If connector is okay, go to next step.
- Turn ignition on. Connect a jumper wire between cluster ID line No. 1 circuit (Orange/Dark Blue wire) at MIC connector terminal No. 3 and ground. Using DRB, read CLUSTER ID status. If DRB does not display EIC/US, replace MIC. Perform TEST VER-1B . If DRB displays EIC/US, go to next step.
- Disconnect jumper wire. Connect jumper wire between cluster ID line No. 2 circuit (Light Blue wire) at MIC connector terminal No. 5 and ground. If DRB does not display EIC/US, replace MIC. Perform TEST VER-1B . If DRB displays EIC/US, go to next step.
- Disconnect jumper wire. Gain access to Body Control Module (BCM). BCM is located behind center console. Connect a jumper wire between cluster ID line No. 1 circuit (Orange/Dark Blue wire) at Natural BCM connector terminal No. 10 and ground. If DRB does not display EIC/US, repair open Orange/Dark Blue or Light Blue wire. Perform TEST VER-1B . If DRB displays EIC/US, go to next step.
- Connect a jumper wire between cluster ID line No. 2 circuit (Light Blue wire) at Natural BCM connector terminal No. 12 and ground. If DRB does not display EIC/US, repair open Light Blue. Perform TEST VER-1B . If DRB displays EIC/US, replace BCM.
