DESCRIPTION
The base instrument cluster can be identified by the single TRIP SHAFT button (18) located to the left of the Tem-
perature Gauge (3). The odometer display (15) doubles as the outside air temperature display when selected by
toggling through the odometer menu using the TRIP SHAFT button.
The Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) features a driver-interactive display (29). The display is located in
the lower left part of the instrument cluster below the fuel and engine temperature gauges (1 and 3). This system
conveniently allows the driver to select a variety of useful information by pressing the STEP button (28) to the right
of the EVIC display. The EVIC displays information related to the following:
•
System Status
•
Vehicle information warning message displays
•
Personal Settings (customer programmable features)
•
Compass display

The EVIC system is comprised of several different components. Those components are:
•
Instrument Cluster
•
EVIC STEP Button
•
Ambient Temperature Sensor
•
Remote Compass Module (RCM)
•
Controller Area Network (CAN) Data Bus
•
Local Interface Network (LIN) Data Bus
The EVIC display and STEP button are part of the Instrument Cluster assembly and cannot be serviced as separate
components. If the display or button are inoperative the complete Instrument Cluster assembly must be replaced,
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/INSTRUMENT CLUSTER - REMOVAL).
OPERATION
The Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) uses both non-switched and ignition switched sources of battery
current so that some of its features remain operational at any time, while others may only operate with the ignition
switch in the On position. When the ignition switch is turned to the On position, the EVIC display (29) will return to
the last function being displayed before the ignition was turned to the Off position.
The EVIC system is comprised of several different components that communicate over the Controller Area Network
(CAN) and Local Interface Network (LIN) Data Buses. If the system is inoperative a scan tool and the appropriate
diagnostic information must be used to diagnose the system and related data buses.
The instrument cluster STEP button (28) is used to operate the different functions of the EVIC system. Pressing and
releasing the STEP button will scroll through the following displays:
•
Compass/Temperature/Audio
•
Average Fuel Economy
•
Distance to Empty
•
Elapsed Time
•
Personal Settings
Once a particular system is displayed, short and long presses of the STEP button will move the EVIC through the
system menu. Pressing and holding the STEP button once will clear the resettable function currently being dis-
