DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 87-19
Trafficmaster Monitor ECU
The Trafficmaster monitor ECU is installed underneath the CD autochanger, below the RH front seat. The
Trafficmaster monitor ECU processes the traffic flow data from the Trafficmaster antenna and combines it with data
from the navigation computer to display on the display unit.
Trafficmaster Antenna
The Trafficmaster antenna is installed in the fascia, on the rear of the instrument pack. The antenna receives radio
signals containing the data relayed from the traffic flow sensors, and transmits the information on a hardwired
connection to the Trafficmaster monitor ECU.

INSTRUMENTS
88-30 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Water sensor
On vehicles with diesel engines a water sensor is located in the bottom of the fuel filter. The sensor utilises the
different resistance properties between water and diesel fuel to determines the presence of water in the fuel.
The sensor receives a battery voltage supply from the fuel pump relay. The sensor output is supplied to the instrument
pack. The water sensor provides the earth path to illuminate the warning lamp.
l< 1.8 volts = warning lamp on.
l> 7.7 volts = warning lamp off.

3Mounting bracket
4Light sensor5Compass LED display
6Compass calibration switch
7Compass printed circuit board
Certain vehicles have an interior rear view mirror that features an automatic photochromatic dimming function and an
electronic compass with LED display.
The compass mirror is a self-contained unit and does not interface with any other vehicle system or electronic control
unit. The mirror is fixed to a metal bracket attached to the windscreen.
A three pin connector provides the electrical connection to the mirror's internal circuit board. Pin-1 of the connector
provides the 12V power supply to the board via the auxiliary relay located in the engine compartment fusebox. When
the ignition switch is turned to the 'II' position, a 12V supply is provided to energise the coil of the auxiliary relay via
fuse 26 in the passenger compartment fusebox. The auxiliary relay's contact supply voltage is provided from the
vehicle battery through fusible links 1 & 7. When the relay's contacts close, a 12V supply is fed to the compass mirror
circuit board via fuse 15 in the passenger compartment fusebox. This is the supply voltage feed for the mirror's internal
compass.
Pin-2 of the electrical connector provides the path to earth.
Pin-3 of the electrical connector is a 12V ignition switched supply voltage (position 'II' of the ignition switch). The
supply voltage is provided to the mirror's circuit board via fuse 25 in the passenger compartment fusebox, and the
reverse lamp switch (normally closed) for vehicles with manual transmission or the starter inhibitor / reverse light
switch (normally closed) for vehicles with automatic transmission. This is the supply voltage feed for the mirror's
photochromatic dimming function.
