Some of these indicators are either programmable
or automatically configured when the EMIC is con-
nected to the vehicle electrical system. This feature
allows those indicators to be activated or deactivated
for compatibility with certain optional equipment.
The EMIC also includes a provision for mounting the
automatic transmission gear selector indicator in the
lower right corner of the cluster. The spring-loaded,
cable driven, mechanical gear selector indicator gives
an indication of the transmission gear that has been
selected with the automatic transmission gear selec-
tor lever. The gear selector indicator pointer is easily
visible through an opening provided in the front of
the cluster overlay, and is also lighted by the cluster
illumination lamps for visibility at night. Models
equipped with a manual transmission have a block-
out plate installed in place of the gear selector indi-
cator.
Cluster illumination is accomplished by adjustable
incandescent back lighting, which illuminates the
gauges for visibility when the exterior lighting is
turned on. The EMIC high beam indicator, turn sig-
nal indicators, and wait-to-start indicator are also
illuminated by dedicated incandescent bulbs. The
remaining indicators in the EMIC are each illumi-
nated by a dedicated Light Emitting Diode (LED)
that is soldered onto the electronic circuit board.
Each of the incandescent bulbs is secured by an inte-
gral bulb holder to the electronic circuit board from
the back of the cluster housing.
Hard wired circuitry connects the EMIC to the
electrical system of the vehicle. These hard wired cir-
cuits are integral to several wire harnesses, which
are routed throughout the vehicle and retained by
many different methods. These circuits may be con-
nected to each other, to the vehicle electrical system
and to the EMIC through the use of a combination of
soldered splices, splice block connectors, and many
different types of wire harness terminal connectors
and insulators. Refer to the appropriate wiring infor-
mation. The wiring information includes wiring dia-grams, proper wire and connector repair procedures,
further details on wire harness routing and reten-
tion, as well as pin-out and location views for the
various wire harness connectors, splices and grounds.
The EMIC modules for this model are serviced only
as complete units. The EMIC module cannot be
adjusted or repaired. If a gauge, an LED indicator,
the VFD, the electronic circuit board, the circuit
board hardware, the cluster overlay, or the EMIC
housing are damaged or faulty, the entire EMIC mod-
ule must be replaced. The cluster lens and hood unit,
the rear cluster housing cover, the automatic trans-
mission gear selector indicator, and the incandescent
lamp bulbs with holders are available for individual
service replacement.
OPERATION
The ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC)
is designed to allow the vehicle operator to monitor
the conditions of many of the vehicle components and
operating systems. The gauges and indicators in the
EMIC provide valuable information about the various
standard and optional powertrains, fuel and emis-
sions systems, cooling systems, lighting systems,
safety systems and many other convenience items.
The EMIC is installed in the instrument panel so
that all of these monitors can be easily viewed by the
vehicle operator when driving, while still allowing
relative ease of access for service. The microproces-
sor-based EMIC hardware and software uses various
inputs to control the gauges and indicators visible on
the face of the cluster. Some of these inputs are hard
wired, but most are in the form of electronic mes-
sages that are transmitted by other electronic mod-
ules over the Chrysler Collision Detection (CCD) data
bus network. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/ELEC-
TRONIC CONTROL MODULES/COMMUNICATION
- OPERATION).
The EMIC microprocessor smooths the input data
using algorithms to provide gauge readings that are
accurate, stable and responsive to operating condi-
tions. These algorithms are designed to provide
gauge readings during normal operation that are con-
sistent with customer expectations. However, when
abnormal conditions exist, such as low/high battery
voltage, low oil pressure, or high coolant tempera-
ture, the algorithm drives the gauge pointer to an
extreme position and the microprocessor turns on the
Check Gauges indicator to provide a distinct visual
indication of a problem to the vehicle operator. The
instrument cluster circuitry may also generate a
hard wired chime tone request to the Central Timer
Module (CTM) when it monitors certain conditions or
inputs, in order to provide the vehicle operator with
an audible alert.
