EIM Will Not Switch Between English & Metric
- Place ignition switch in ACC position. Depress tripminder MILES km switch. Tripminder should switch readout from English to Metric or from Metric to English. If okay, go to next step. If not, problem is located in tripminder or related wiring.
- Depress tripminder MILES km switch. The automatic temperature control display should switch from English to Metric or vice versa. If display changes, go to next step. If not, go to step 7).
- Remove instrument cluster. Check pin No. 18 (Light Blue/Black or Black wire) in EIM connector for looseness, bent pins or other damage. If connector is okay, go to next step. If not, repair connector as required. Repeat step 1).
- With EIM connected, measure voltage at pin No. 10 (Red wire). With tripminder in miles mode, voltage should be greater than 3.5 volts. With tripminder in km mode, voltage should be less than 1.5 volts. If okay, go to next step. If not, go to step 7).
- With EIM connected, ground pin No. 10 (Red wire). Display should read in Metric mode. If okay, go to next step. If not, replace EIM.
- Disconnect EIM connector. Remove pin No. 10 (Red wire) from connector and tape. Connect EIM. Display should be in English mode. If okay, repair connector as required. If not, replace EIM.
- Inspect Red wire between EIM, tripminder, automatic temperature control and electronic compass/thermometer for shorts or opens. If okay, system is okay. If not, repair wiring as required.
