Circuit/System Description

The head-up display (HUD) is a display system that optically projects vehicle information onto the windshield. The HUD has an electric tilt adjust that is controlled by the up and down switches. Operating these switches directs the motor to move the HUD image up or down on the windshield. There is also a page switch that can scroll through multiple messages present on the HUD. The HUD is also equipped with automatic dimming. Dimming is also controlled by a HUD dimmer switch. All three switches control the HUD by grounding the HUD switch input signals to ground. The dimmer switch uses a variable resistor to control HUD intensity where the lower the resistance, the brighter the HUD display.
