4	Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)

The IC (Instrument Cluster) is connected to the TCM via the HS (High Speed) CAN (Controller Area Network) Powertrain bus. Transmission status is transmitted by the TCM and displayed to the driver in the IC. For additional information, Refer to: INSTRUMENT CLUSTER

Malfunction Indicator Lamp

Transmission related faults that effect the vehicle emissions output will illuminate the MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp). The MIL is illuminated by the ECM (Engine Control Module) on receipt of a relevant fault message from the TCM on the HS CAN Powertrain bus. The nature of the fault can be diagnosed using a Jaguar approved diagnostic system, which reads the fault codes stored in the TCM memory.

Transmission Status Display

The transmission status display is located in the tachometer. The display shows the TCS position. When the transmission is in the sequential shift mode the current gear is displayed in the status display.

Message Center

The message center is located in the IC. The message center is a Thin Film Transistor display that relays vehicle status and operating information to the driver and can display messages relating to a number of vehicle systems. If a transmission fault occurs, the message 'GEARBOX FAULT' is displayed in the message center. For additional information, refer to: INFORMATION AND MESSAGE CENTER
