Instrument Cluster

Instrument Cluster (IC) is a Hybrid Electronic Cluster (HEC). Vehicle electronic functions are divided into zones. Instrument cluster, Front Electronics Module (FEM) and Rear Electronics Module (REM) use Standard Corporate Protocol (SCP) communication network to transmit and receive information. IC communicates with FEM, REM, ABS/TC, PCM and other modules over SCP bus to control gauges and warning indicators. For standard or optional IC contents. See Figure or Figure .

Instrument cluster and panel lighting system provides dimmable backlighting to following components: instrument cluster, headlight switch, front climate control assembly, auxiliary climate control assembly (if equipped), audio unit, Rear Audio Control Panel (RACP), message center switch assembly (if equipped), front ashtray, overhead console, speed control actuator switches and traction control/reverse park aid override switch. Front power door lock switches and front power window switches are non-dimmable.
