GENERAL INFORMATION
INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
There are two conventional instrument cluster as-
semblies available. The clusters incorporates mag-
netic type gauges and an electronically driven
speedometer and odometer assembly (Fig. 1 and 2).
MAGNETIC GAUGES
All gauges on the AP Body clusters are the mag-
netic type gauges. When the ignition switch is in the
OFF position each gauge, except for the voltmeter
and tachometer will show a reading. However, the
readings are only accurate when the ignition switch
is in the ON position.
TACHOMETER DRIVE MODULE
The tachometer drive module is an electronic mod-
ule used to drive the magnetic tachometer in the
high line cluster. This module is located on top of the instrument
cluster.
ELECTRONIC DIGITAL CLOCK
The electronic digital clock is in the radio. The
clock and radio each use the display panel built into
the radio. A digital readout indicates the time in
hours and minutes whenever the ignition switch is in
the ON or ACC position. When the ignition switch is in the OFF position, or
when the radio frequency is being displayed, time
keeping is accurately maintained. The procedure for setting the clock varies slightly
with each radio. The correct procedure is described
under the individual radio operating instructions re-
fer to the Sound Systems Manual supplied with the
vehicle.
WARNING LAMPS AND INDICATOR LIGHTS
The instrument cluster has warning and indicators
lamps for eight different systems:
² Low oil pressure
² Brake warning
² Seat belt warning
² Malfunction indicator (check engine) lamp
² Air Bag
² High beam indicator
² Right and left turn signals.
² Anti-lock (ABS)
CLUSTER AND GAUGE SERVICE AND TESTING
CAUTION: Disconnect the negative battery cable
before servicing the instrument panel. When power
is required for test purposes, reconnect battery ca-
ble for test only. Disconnect the negative battery
cable after test and before continuing service pro-
cedures.
SENDING UNIT TEST
Check for a defective sending unit or wiring, when
a problem occurs with a cluster gauge. Do this before
disassembling the cluster. (1) Sending units and wiring can be checked by
grounding the connector leads, at the sending unit,
in the vehicle. (2) With the ignition in the ON position, a
grounded input will cause the fuel or temperature
gauge to read at or above maximum.

Water Leaks ............................. 2 Wind Noise.............................. 3
WATER LEAKS
Water leaks can be caused by poor sealing, improper
body component alignment, body seam porosity, miss-
ing plugs, or blocked drain holes. Centrifugal and
gravitational force can cause water to drip from an
area somewhat distant from the actual leak point,
making leak detection difficult. All body sealing points
should be water tight in normal wet driving conditions.
Water flowing downward from the front of the vehicle
should not enter the passenger or luggage compart-
ment. Moving sealing surfaces will not always seal
water tight under all conditions. At times, side glass,
door, or convertible top seals will allow water to enter
the passenger compartment during high pressure
washing or hard driving rain (severe) conditions. Over
compensating on door, glass, or top adjustments to stop
a water leak that occurs under severe conditions, can
cause premature seal wear and excessive closing or
latching effort. After a repair procedure has been
performed, water test vehicle to verify leak has stopped
before returning vehicle to use.
VISUAL INSPECTION BEFORE WATER LEAK TESTS
Verify that floor and body plugs are in place, body
drains are clear and body components are aligned and
sealed. If component alignment or sealing is necessary,
refer to the appropriate section of this group for proper
procedures.
WATER LEAK TESTS
WARNING: DO NOT USE ELECTRIC SHOP LIGHTS
OR TOOLS IN WATER TEST AREA, PERSONAL IN-
JURY CAN RESULT.
When a determination has been made on the condi-
tions that a water leak occurs, simulate the conditions
as closely as possible.
² If a leak occurs when the car is parked in a steady
light rain, flood the leak area with a open ended garden
hose.
² If a leak occurs at highway speeds in a steady rain,
test the leak area with a stream or fan spray of water
from a garden hose with an adjustable nozzle. Direct
the spray in the direction comparable to actual condi-
tions. ²
If a leak seems to occur only when the vehicle is
parked on an incline, hoist the end or side of the vehicle
to simulate this condition before water testing. This
method can also be used when the leak occurs when the
vehicle accelerates, stops, or turns. If the leak occurs
on acceleration, hoist the front of the vehicle. If the
leak occurs when braking, hoist the back of the vehicle.
If the leak occurs on left turns, hoist the left side of the
vehicle. If the leak occurs on right turns, hoist the right
side of the vehicle. For hoisting recommendations refer
to Group 0, Lubrication and Maintenance, General
Information section.
WATER LEAK DETECTION
To detect a water leak point of entry, perform a water
test and watch for water tracks or droplets forming on
the inside if the vehicle. If necessary remove interior
trim covers or panels to gain visual access to the leak
area. If the hose can not be positioned without being
held, have someone help perform the water test. Some water leaks must be tested for a considerable
length of time to become apparent. When a leak ap-
pears, determine the highest point of the water track or
drop. The highest point usually will indicate the point
of entry. After leak point has been determined, repair
the leak and water test to verify that leak has stopped. Locating the entry point of water that is leaking into
a cavity between panels can be difficult. The trapped
water splashes or runs from the cavity it is dammed up
in, often at a distance from the entry point. Most water
leaks of this type become apparent after accelerating,
stopping, turning, or when on a incline.
MIRROR INSPECTION METHOD
When a leak point area is visually obstructed, use a
suitable mirror to gain visual access. A mirror can also
be used to deflect light to a limited access area to assist
in locating a leak point.
BRIGHT LIGHT LEAK TEST METHOD
Some water leaks in the luggage compartment can be
detected without water testing. Position the vehicle in
a brightly light area. From inside the darkened lug-
gage compartment inspect around seals and body
seams. If necessary, have a helper direct a drop light
over the suspected leak areas around the lug-
