Instrument Cluster: Description
The mechanical instrument cluster is an electromechanical module which receives most of its information via the Programmable Communication Interface (PCI) bus.
There are three types of clusters (Fig 1 ) and (Fig 2 ).
The Instrument Cluster for the Intrepid and Concorde (Fig 1 ) are almost identical. The gauge and warning lamp location and functionality are identical. The difference being, the Intrepid has white gauges with black numbers, and the Concorde has black gauges with white numbers and chrome rings around the gauges.
