Test 57A - Instrument Cluster Sense Circuits

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1995 Eagle Vision, 1995 Dodge Intrepid, 1995 Chrysler New Yorker, 1995 Chrysler LHS, and 1995 Chrysler Concorde. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: For connector terminal identification, see CONNECTOR IDENTIFICATION  . For wiring diagrams, see appropriate article in ENGINE PERFORMANCE:
  1. If speedometer does not operate, go to TEST 69A  . If speedometer operates properly, replace odometer. If speedometer operates improperly and vehicle is not a Dodge, go to TEST 57B. If vehicle is a Dodge, go to next step.
  2. Using scan tool, read cluster ID. If scan tool displays CLUSTER ID DODGE, go to step 6). If scan tool does not display CLUSTER ID DODGE, turn ignition off. Disconnect instrument cluster connectors. Go to next step.
  3. Connect jumper wire between instrument cluster Black connector terminal No. 10 (Orange/Dark Blue wire) and chassis ground. If scan tool displays CLUSTER ID DODGE, replace instrument cluster. If scan tool does not display CLUSTER ID DODGE, disconnect jumper wire. Go to next step.
  4. Gain access to Body Control Module (BCM). BCM is located behind right kick panel. With connectors connected, connect jumper wire between BCM Gray connector terminal No. 12 (Orange/Dark Blue wire) and chassis ground. If scan tool displays CLUSTER ID DODGE, repair open Orange/Dark Blue wire. If scan tool does not display CLUSTER ID DODGE, go to next step.
  5. Turn ignition off. Disconnect and inspect BCM Gray connector. Repair connector as necessary. If connector is okay, replace BCM.
    NOTE: English speedometer head displays MPH letters larger than KM/H letters.
  6. If speedometer is an English unit, go to step 9). If speedometer is not an English unit, use scan tool to read instrument cluster mode status. If scan tool displays MAC MODE KM/H, repair or replace instrument cluster as necessary. See INSTRUMENT PANELS article in ACCESSORIES & EQUIPMENT. If scan tool does not display MIC MODE KM/H, go to next step.
  7. Disconnect instrument cluster connectors. Using scan tool, read instrument cluster mode status. If scan tool displays MIC MODE KM/H, repair or replace instrument cluster as necessary. See appropriate INSTRUMENT PANELS article in ACCESSORIES & EQUIPMENT. If scan tool does not display MIC MODE KM/H, go to next step.
  8. Ensure ignition is off. Disconnect Body Control Module (BCM) connectors. Using scan tool in ohmmeter mode, check resistance of BCM Gray connector terminal No. 7 (Light Blue wire). If resistance is less than 5 ohms, repair short to ground in Light Blue wire. If resistance is more than 5 ohms, replace BCM.
  9. Using scan tool, read instrument cluster mode status. If scan tool displays MIC MODE MPH, repair or replace instrument cluster as necessary. See appropriate INSTRUMENT PANELS article in ACCESSORIES & EQUIPMENT. If scan tool does not display MIC MODE MPH, go to next step.
  10. Ensure ignition is off. Disconnect instrument cluster cconnectors and BCM connectors. Using scan tool in voltmeter mode, check voltage on BCM Gray connector terminal No. 7 (Light Blue wire). If voltage is more than 10 volts, repair short to battery voltage in Light Blue wire and replace instrument cluster. See appropriate INSTRUMENT PANELS article in ACCESSORIES & EQUIPMENT. If voltage is less than 10 volts, go to next step.
  11. Reconnect BCM connectors. Connect jumper wire between instrument cluster Black connector terminal No. 9 (Light Blue wire) and chassis ground. If scan tool displays MIC MODE MPH, replace instrument cluster. See appropriate INSTRUMENT PANELS article in ACCESSORIES & EQUIPMENT. If scan tool does not display MIC MODE MPH, go to next step.
  12. Disconnect jumper wire. Connect jumper wire between BCM Gray connector terminal No. 7 (Light Blue wire) and chassis ground. If scan tool displays MIC MODE MPH, repair open Light Blue wire. If scan tool does not display MIC MODE MPH, go to next step.
  13. Ensure ignition off. Disconnect and inspect BCM Gray connector. Repair connector as necessary. If connector is okay, replace BCM.
