Combination of devices

At the same time to refusal of a speedometer, a tachometer or measuring instruments of impellent oil and temperatures of cooling liquid always there is a violation of functioning of the module of a safety cushion! Movement with the faulty module of a pillow dangerously! Check a safety lock No. 22 condition in the assembly block.

In the left we string to a corner of a combination of devices usually the measuring instrument of fuel consumption (1) settles down.

Combination of devices

1 — a fuel consumption Measuring instrument 2 — the Voltmeter 3 — the Tachometer 4 — the Speedometer 5 — the Odometer 6 — the Measuring instrument of pressure of impellent oil 7 — the Measuring instrument of temperature of cooling liquid 8 — the Control lamp of indexes of turns 9 — the Button of dumping of indications of the counter of range of the current trip 10 — the Counter of range of the current trip 11 — the Control lamp of low level of fuel

12 — the Control lamp of ABS 13 — the Control lamp of raising of the parking brake 14 — the Control lamp «Check the engine» 15 — the Control lamp of switching on higher transfer 16 — the Control lamp of a safety cushion 17 — the Control lamp of a driving beam of head headlights 18 — the Control lamp «Fasten belts» 19 — the Control lamp of the anticreeping alarm system

Above and slightly more to the right there is a voltmeter (2) which indications allow to define level of a charge of the storage battery and serviceability of functioning of system of a charge. Arrow lowering in a red zone of low level of a charge warns that the battery, possibly, is incapable to carry out engine start. For the working engine the range of indications of the voltmeter from 11 to 15 Century is normal. The long indication in 9 ÷ 11 In or over 15 In testifies to failure of the generator, a tension or battery regulator. Address for consultation to specialists of car-care center.

The big round board located more to the left is the indicator of a measuring instrument of turns of the engine (tachometer) (3). A unit of measure of a tachometer is rpm.

Do not allow leaving of an arrow of a tachometer in a red zone of a scale of its board - serious damage of the power unit can appear result!

The right big round board belongs to a speedometer (4). On the dial of a measuring instrument two scales, allowing to define speed of movement of the car in miles/h (the main scale) and km/h (an auxiliary scale) are put. The range of measurement of a speedometer makes from 0 to 100 miles/h (0 ÷ 160 km/h).

In the speedometer dial, slightly above an axis his shooters there is a counter of complete run of the car (odometer) (5). The counter is sealed up, broken into eight divisions and measures car run to within the tenth shares of mile.

Under an arrow of a speedometer the counter of range of the current trip (10) settles down. The button of dumping of indications of the counter (9) is on the right below under the speedometer dial.

Is more right than a speedometer on one with it level the measuring instrument of pressure of impellent oil (6) is placed. Indications of the counter do not define oil level in an engine case. Value of 20 ÷ 60 psi (1.4 ÷ 4.2 ^kgf/cm2) in city or 45 ÷ 60 psi (3.2 ÷ 4.2 ^kgf/cm2) is normal at movement on the highway. Pressure can change depending on turns of the engine, temperature and viscosity of the oil filled in it. For the heated-up engine working at single turns as norm the indication in 13 psi (0.91 ^kgfs/cm2) is. The constant low indication of a measuring instrument testifies about violation of serviceability of functioning of system of greasing - consult at specialists of dealer office of the Chrysler company.

In the right bottom corner of a combination of devices the measuring instrument of temperature of cooling liquid (7) is placed. The exit of an arrow of the device in a red range of a scale of a measuring instrument testifies to an engine overheat - thus it is necessary to muffle immediately it and immediately to address for the help in the closest workshop of car-care center.

Try not to leave the switched-on engine for a long time without supervision. The long overheat of the engine (if that occurs) is fraught with serious damages and expensive repair.

Control lamp of indexes of turns (8) start to blink at inclusion of the corresponding index (right or left).

The control lamp of low level of fuel (11) informs the driver on an approach by the end of a stock of fuel and lights up, when in a fuel tank there are about 11.2 l of fuel. At first the lamp can start to blink only, especially during the moments of commission of turns, braking and acceleration as the fuel weight in a tank is thus shaken.

The control lamp of ABS (12) lights up for short time at start the engine, informing the driver that knots of system function regularly. If the lamp does not die away after completion of start of the engine or lights up during movement, it testifies to identification by system of self-diagnostics of ABS of internal malfunctions. Thus the brake system continues to function in a usual mode, however ABS is disconnected. Switching off, and then inclusion of ignition can install system of anti-blocking of brakes again. If the lamp continues to join and after engine restarts, address for consultation in dealer office of the Chrysler company. If control lamps of ABS and the parking brake at the same time light up, address in a car-care center workshop immediately.

The control lamp of raising of the parking brake (13) at the included ignition informs the driver that the parking brake is cocked. The lamp also warns about falling of level and pressure of brake liquid in hydraulic system - in this case it is necessary to address immediately for the help to experts.

If a control lamp «Check the engine» (14) it is necessary to burn after engine start, or joins in movement time, it speaks about possible violations of functioning and/or need of performance of procedures of routine maintenance of the engine. Though the car does not lose thus working capacity and does not need towage, it is necessary to show at the first possibility it to specialists of dealer office of the Chrysler company.

Long operation of the car with the included lamp «Check the engine» can lead to serious damages of components of systems of decrease in toxicity of the fulfilled gases, but also, considerably fuel consumption thus can increase. The blinking of a control lamp means about possibility of approach of fast failure of the catalytic converter and serious decrease in efficiency of return of the engine - it is necessary to address immediately in a car-care center workshop. At the moment of engine start the control lamp should light up for short time, informing the driver on serviceability of the condition.

The control lamp of switching on higher transfer (15) is provided on all models from RKPP and informs the driver on need of increase of transfer at car dispersal for the purpose of maintenance of the most effective mode of fuel consumption.

The control lamp of a safety cushion (16) lights up and remains lit on 6 ÷ 8 seconds at the first inclusion of ignition. If the lamp does not die away after a successful conclusion of start of the engine or joins in movement time, the system of a safety cushion needs urgent check with attraction of efforts of specialists of dealer office of the Chrysler company.

The control lamp of a driving beam of head headlights (17) informs the driver that head headlights of the car function in a mode of a driving beam.

Control lamp «Fasten belts» (18) in a combination to an alarm buzzer warn the driver and passengers when landing in the car about need to be fastened. At a zastegivaniye of buckles of seat belts the buzzer is disconnected, and the lamp continues to burn within about 6 seconds.

The control lamp of anticreeping system (19) confirms turning on of the alarm system. At the serviceable alarm system the lamp should blink. If the lamp burns continuously, therefore the system failed.
