Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) - System Operation and Component Description

If the MyKey® speed limiter feature is turned on and the vehicle speed reaches the selected top speed (105, 110, 120 or 130 km/h [65, 70, 75, or 80 mph]), the message center displays TOP SPEED MYKEY SETTING along with a chime. If the speed warning is selected at one of the preset values (75, 90, 105 km/h [45, 55, 65 mph]) and the vehicle approaches the preset speed, the message center displays CHECK SPEED DRIVE SAFELY along with a chime. At approximately 1/8 tank of remaining fuel, the IPC illuminates the low fuel message center indicator and the message center displays FUEL LEVEL LOW along with a chime. Traction control, Emergency 911 Assist® feature and the Do Not Disturb feature can be set to always on or user selectable in the MyKey® menu. MyKey® miles driven by the MyKey® user can be found in the information display. The number of MyKey® programmed and administrator keys can be found in the MyKey® menu. The parking aid, Blind Spot Monitoring System/Cross Traffic Alert (BLIS® /CTA), lane departure alert and collision avoidance warning menus are disabled in the message center to force these features always on.

Configuration

The IPC contains items that are configurable. Most of the configurable items (configurable parameters) are customer preference items, which can be set with a scan tool. The remaining configurable items can only be set through the vehicle configuration parameters. Refer to: Module Configuration (418-01 Module Configuration) .

Prove-Out

The IPC carries out a display prove-out to verify the gauges function and all module controlled warning indicator lamps and monitored systems are functioning correctly within the IPC. Upon initiation of the prove-out (ignition on), the analog gauges sweep from one stop to the other then return to the normal indication state based on the input received. The IPC also provides a timed prove-out of some indicators while other indicators illuminate upon engine start up or have no prove-out. When the ignition is cycled on, the indicators illuminate to prove-out according to the following table:
