GENERAL INFORMATION
INSTRUMENT CLUSTERS
There are three instrument cluster assemblies available. Two mechanical clusters which incorporates magnetic type gauges. The electronic instrument cluster incorporates, a digital speedometer/ odometer and electronic bar graph gauges.
The mechanical Hi-Line instrument cluster has magnetic type gauges for coolant temperature, fuel level and charging system voltage (Fig. 1).
Fig. 1 Instrument Cluster
The mechanical Premium instrument cluster has magnetic type gauges for oil pressure, coolant temperature, charging system voltage and fuel level. The premium instrument cluster also has a tachometer (Fig. 2).
If the ignition switch is in the OFF position each gauge will show a reading, except for the volt gauge.

However the readings are only accurate when the ignition switch is in the ON position.
TACHOMETER DRIVE MODULE
The tachometer drive module is an electronic module used to drive a magnetic tachometer in a conventional instrument cluster.
ELECTRONIC DIGITAL CLOCK
The electronic digital clock is in the radio. The clock and radio each use the display panel built into the radio. A digital readout indicates the time in hours and minutes whenever the ignition switch is in the ON or ACC position.
When the ignition switch is in the OFF position, or when the radio frequency is being displayed, time keeping is accurately maintained.
MESSAGE CENTER
The message center includes the graphic display of the car with illuminating graphics for: low wind-
