Using Hybrid Electronic Cluster (HEC)

To enter HEC self-diagnostics, press instrument cluster SELECT/RESET button before turning ignition switch to RUN position. Within 5-8 seconds, odometer will display "tESt" to begin self-diagnostic mode. SELECT/RESET button must be released within 3 seconds of odometer displaying "tESt". Repeatedly press SELECT/RESET button through odometer displays until dtc is displayed. When odometer displays "dtc", press SELECT/RESET button again and any continuous DTCs will be displayed before odometer advances to next display. Other HEC diagnostic modes can be entered when self-diagnostic function is entered. See HEC SELF-DIAGNOSTIC MODES  table.

HEC SELF-DIAGNOSTIC MODES (1)(2)

Odometer Display Description
GAGE Activates sweep of all gauges, then displays present gauge values. Does ROM and EE checksum tests. If gauge sweep is inoperative, replace instrument cluster.
All Segments Illuminated Illuminates all odometer segments. If any odometer segment is inoperative, replace instrument cluster.
bulb Illuminates all micro-controlled lamps and LEDs. Replace bulb or LED as necessary.
r Returns to normal operation all micro-controlled lamps and LEDs and displays hexadecimal values for ROM. If alternating flashes of FAIL and ROM level are displayed, replace instrument cluster.
EE Hexadecimal value for EE level. If alternating flashes of FAIL and EE level are displayed, replace instrument cluster.
dt Displays hexadecimal coding of final manufacturing test date
dtc Displays continuous DTCs. Pressing SELECT/RESET button will display any DTCs stored before proceeding to next step.
enG English value speed input.
m Metric speed value input.
tAc Tachometer value input.
FUEL Fuel level input. Displays 255 for open circuit, about 232 for full stop, 215 for full tank, 178 for 3/4 full, 138 for 1/2 full, 93 for 1/4 full, 41 for empty mark, 0-20 circuit is shorted. Below 55 low fuel warning lamp should light.
OIL Oil pressure input. Normal input reading will be 000-169. Below 6 psi or inoperative switch will be greater than 169.
dEGC Last coolant temp input. About 49c, gauge should be at cold mark; 120c gauge should be at end of normal band. About 119c, temperature warning lamp should light. If -40c, input has not been received for more than 5 seconds.
br Brake fluid level input.
bAtt Battery voltage input.
Cr RUN/START sense input. Shows -h with ignition switch in START, -l with ignition switch in RUN position.
PA-PE7 Not used.
GAGE Repeats test display cycle.
