About This Manual

This service manual describes the VN/VHD instrument cluster which went into production in March 1999. This cluster is easily distinguished from earlier models by the telltale lamps on the left side: To nd your way easily among the information that is available in the graphic display, it is recommended that you rst read all the sections from Communication page 19 to Information Messages page 27. These sections describe the displays function and operation, as well as how the instrument cluster communicates with the vehicle electronic system. In the section Graphic Display Operation page 40, the following main headings can be found:
Earlier models have ENGINE FLUIDS, CAUTION and STOP telltales whereas this model has Preheat, INFO and STOP telltales. (The function of the ENGINE FLUIDS telltale has transferred to the STOP telltale.)
In September 2000 the instrument cluster was updated with 5 new telltale lamps on the right side:
Earlier models had only a Traction Control telltale lamp on the right side where as this model has also TRANS OIL TEMP, TRANS MALFUNCTION, WAIT START ENGINE1, and WATER IN FUEL1 telltale lamps.
Instrument Cluster Operation at Start-up page 40 Graphic Display Menus, Driving Mode page 41 Graphic Display Menus, Non-Driving Mode page 56
The main headings begin by listing the main menus. The sub-menus and functions are then explained.
This Service Information provides information about how to operate the instrument clusters display, as well as which information can be obtained via the display. It also gives information about the function, troubleshooting and servicing of the instrument clusters other parts such as gauges and lamps. For information about the vehicles Electronic Control Units, wiring diagrams, sensors and other components, please refer to the service information or electrical schematics for those components. The instrument cluster is available in 7 congurations, with either an mph or km/h speedometer (see Available Congurations page 4).

Introduction
The cluster is available in 7 congurations, with either a mph or km/h speedometer (see Available Congurations page 4). The instrument cluster consists of three combined modules: Left module The left module consists of 3 separate components, left gauge module, graphic display and CPU board. The left module can include pyrometer, engine oil pressure gauge, engine coolant temperature gauge and turbo boost pressure gauge, and a graphic display for driver information. There are telltales in the lower section of the module. Please refer to Left Instrument Cluster Module (MID 234) page 23. For display operation, refer to the sections Instrument Cluster Operation at Start-up page 40, Graphic Display Menus, Driving Mode page 41 and Graphic Display Menus, Non-Driving Mode page 56. Center module The center module contains a tachometer, speedometer and odometer. In the lower section of the center module there is a central warning lamp, and telltales for different truck functions. Please refer to Center Instrument Cluster Module (MID140) page 28. Right module The right module consists of an electrical gauge module and separate air gauges. The right module can include forward and rear rear axle temperature gauges, fuel level gauge, application air pressure gauge, front and rear brake air pressure gauges. Trucks with an air suspension may have an air suspension pressure gauge. There are telltales in the lower section of the module. Please refer to Right Instrument Cluster Module page 32. Graphic display control buttons Control buttons for the graphic display menus are located on the wiper stalk on the right-hand side of the steering wheel. Please refer to Graphic Display Control Buttons page 38.
If the vehicle is in motion, use the display controls carefully. Do not lose road concentration. Be familiar with operation of the controls. Shifting concentration to operating the controls can lead to losing control of the vehicle and may result in serious personal injury or death.

Design and Function
Instrument Cluster Programming
W0001632
Each instrument cluster (or CPU board) is programmed to correspond to the customer-ordered options for that particular vehicle. This dataset is stored in the CPU board memory, making the instrument cluster unique to each vehicle. For this reason, it is not possible to swap a suspected faulty instrument cluster (or CPU board) with another vehicle without reprogramming the instrument cluster. When ordering a replacement instrument cluster (or CPU board) the Vehicle Identication Number (VIN) must
be supplied. Volvo will program the replacement part before delivery based on the dataset stored in the VDA (Volvo Data Administration) database. Authorized technicians can also update and/or alter software datasets with the VCADS Pro tool. See the most current VCADS Pro user information or the Help menu in the VCADS Pro tool.

Communication
W3004303
1. 2. 3.
Connections to the data link Connections to components Connections between the modules of the instrument cluster
The connections between the 3 modules of the instrument cluster and other components can be divided into the following three groups according to the picture above: 1. Connections to the data link: Connections to the J1587/J1708 information data link connect the instrument cluster center and left module to the other electronic control units, e.g. the Engine ECU (MID 128) and the Vehicle ECU (MID 144). For more information see Data Link page 22 and Communication with Other ECUs/Sensors page 23.
2. Connections to components: Some components are connected to the instrument cluster modules via the microprocessor in the left module. Others components have inputs to each cluster module, e.g. air gauges. See the individual gauge descriptions in the Design and Function section for more information. 3. Connections between the modules of the instrument cluster (control signals for gauges and lamps): The non data link communication between the three modules of the instrument cluster is carried out via these connections. They are hardwired connections labeled with CJ_ circuit numbers. Refer to the electrical schematic or Connector Pinouts page 7 for more information. 19
Design and Function
Data Link
The communication between the vehicles ECUs and the instrument clusters left and center modules is carried out via the SAE J1587/J1708 information data link. The systems control signals are sent on the SAE J1939 control data link. The SAE J1939 control data link does not directly interface with the instrument cluster. The information and diagnostic signals are sent on the J1587/J1708 information data link. The link also functions as a reserve system for the J1939 control link, if the control link for some reason does not function. The information link keeps the systems status continually updated and available for reading via the diagnostics socket. If a fault should occur and be detected by any of the ECUs, the ECU will send out a message on both links. Messages that are sent on the control data link inform the other ECUs that an error has occurred, for instance that the engine ECU cannot grant the requested acceleration. At the same time, the ECU that has indicated the fault will broadcast a message on the information data link about what is wrong. On the instrument clusters graphic display, the fault can then be read as a fault code, either in plain text or in standard SAE format. Note that a fault code, whether it is shown in plain text or in standard SAE format, can only give a rough indication of the fault. For example, a mechanical fault may produce an engine temperature which exceeds the set limit (set in the engine ECU). This will generate a fault code stating that the engine temperature is too high. The cause of the high engine temperature is not shown by the fault code alone; symptoms from the vehicle are also very important to note. Beyond fault codes, information and stop messages, there is a great deal of other information to be obtained via the graphic display. By selecting various menu options the driver can choose which information is to be shown on the graphic display.

Design and Function
Warning Lamps, Telltale Lamps and Buzzer

The instrument cluster contains warning and telltale lamps, both at the bottom of the cluster and integrated into the gauges, in order to indicate status and warnings. In the instrument cluster there is also a buzzer which performs three different functions: asher indicator, reminder and caution. The caution buzzer warns the driver when a STOP message is displayed or when there are abnormal measurement values.
Diagnostic Capabilities
The instrument cluster performs a self-test via the instrument clusters electronics, when the ignition key is turned to the ON position, but a self-test can also be manually conducted via the menu System diagnostic/instrument cluster test. In the System diagnostic/instrument cluster test menu, the graphic display shows diagnostics of the vehicles various ECUs. See Fault diagnostic page 68. Here you can select how the fault codes are to be shown: numerically, as text, or with a time stamp (with some engines). Fault codes can also be reset, either one by one, Reset a fault code page 72, or all at the same time, Reset all the fault codes page 73.
Instrument Cluster Lighting

The brightness of the gauges and the graphic display can be adjusted with an external rheostat on the dash. In the Set-up menu the degree of brightness between
gauge and display can be altered. Even the contrast and normal or reverse video of the display can be changed via the Set-up menu, see Main Menu: Set-up mode (non-driving) page 59.
22
Design and Function
Left Instrument Cluster Module (MID 234)

The left module consists of 3 separate components:
A left gauge module Graphic display Left CPU board The left gauge module may have up to 4 gauges depending on the instrument cluster conguration:
Pyrometer Engine oil pressure gauge Engine coolant temperature gauge Turbo boost pressure gauge
W3004369
Important: Individual gauges or modules in the VN/VHD instrument cluster are not serviceable during the warranty period. Attempts to service or replace individual modules or gauges during the warranty period will
void the cluster warranty. Instead, the whole instrument cluster may be exchanged. After the warranty expires, individual modules can be replaced.
23
Design and Function
Pyrometer
The pyrometer indicates exhaust temperature from a sensor in the exhaust system. The pyrometer gauge is an electrical aircore meter movement driven by the clusters microprocessor. The microprocessor receives pyrometer sensor input from a high-temperature thermocouple. If the pyrometer thermocouple fails, the pointer will move to one end of the dial or the other, and a fault code will be logged for loss of data. A reading of 300 F (149 C ) or less indicates an open in the trucks wiring or thermo couple, and a reading of 1500 F (815 C) or more indicates a short.
W3003632
Engine oil pressure gauge

This gauge shows the actual oil pressure in the engine. The pointer must not move down into the red sector while driving! If the oil pressure disappears, e.g. due to oil leakage, the engine could be seriously damaged. The gauge gives a reading when the ignition key is in the ON position. The engine oil pressure gauge is an electrical aircore meter movement that receives its signal from a sender unit mounted on the engine. The sender unit supplies data to the Engine ECU which sends engine oil pressure information to the instrument cluster via the J1587/J1708 information data link. In the absence of a data signal, the gauge pointer will move to its minimum reading after a 10 second delay, and a fault code will be logged for loss of data. The LED in the lower, right-hand corner lights up when the engine ECU sends a signal for low oil pressure, no matter what value is shown on the gauge. The pressure which activates this LED is engine-dependent (set in the engine ECU). The measuring range of the gauge is 090 psi.
W3003768
24
Design and Function
Engine coolant temperature gauge

This gauge shows the temperature in the engines cooling system. The temperature, under normal driving conditions, must be below the red sector. The gauge gives a reading when the ignition key is in the ON posi tion and the coolant temperature exceeds 140 F (60 C). The measuring range of the gauge is 150230 F. The coolant temperature gauge is an electrical aircore meter movement which receives its signal from the engine via the SAE J1587/J1708 information data link. In the absence of a data signal, the gauge pointer will move to its minimum reading after a 10 second delay, and a fault code will be logged for loss of data. The LED in the lower, right-hand corner lights up when the engine ECU sends a signal for high coolant temperature, no matter what value is shown on the gauge. The temperature which activates this LED is enginedependent (set in the engine ECU).
W3003769
Turbo boost (intake manifold) pressure gauge

This gauge shows boost pressure (overpressure in the intake manifold). When driving with a constant load, the pointer should be stationary. The boost pressure gauge can be used together with the speedometer to help the driver maintain an even speed and even acceleration in order to minimize fuel consumption. The gauge range is 030 psi. The turbo boost pressure gauge is an electrical aircore meter movement driven by a signal from the J1587/J1708 information data link. In the absence of a data signal, the gauge pointer will move to its minimum reading after a 10 second delay, and a fault code will be logged for loss of data.

Design and Function
Left CPU Board

The left CPU (Central Processing Unit) board contains a microprocessor that processes various data and sensor input to the instrument cluster and sends the information to the appropriate display unit. MID 234 identies the left CPU board. The left CPU board also contains the programming information that makes each instrument cluster unique to the vehicle it is installed in. If the instrument cluster or left CPU board is replaced it must be programmed per the VIN (Vehicle Identication Number) for proper operation.

The center module contains the following:
Tachometer Speedometer Odometer
T3010615
Important: Individual gauges or modules in the VN/VHD instrument cluster are not serviceable during the warranty period. Attempts to service or replace individual gauges or modules during the warranty period will
void the cluster warranty. Instead, the whole instrument cluster may be exchanged. After the warranty expires, individual modules can be replaced.

Design and Function
Center Module ECU (MID 140)

Signals from the J1587/J1708 information data link are processed in the center module ECU, which controls the tachometer and the speedometer. The ECU also controls the activation of different sounds, e.g. indicator for direction indicators and warning. The center module ECU receives signals from the other two modules of the instrument cluster, from directly connected components and via the J1587/J1708 information data link.
Tachometer
The tachometer is an electrical air core meter movement driven by signals from the engine (MID 128) via the J1587/J1708 information data link. In the absence of data link information, the gauge pointer will move to its minimum reading after a 10 second delay. The gauge range is 02800 r/min.
W3003639
29
Design and Function
Speedometer
The speedometer is an electrical air core meter movement driven by signals from the SAE J1587/J1708 information data link. In the absence of data link information, the gauge pointer will move to its minimum reading after a 10 second delay. Note that the cluster does not perform speedometer calibration. Speedometer calibration to compensate for tire sizes and other driveline changes is done during programming of the engine ECU, vehicle ECU or transmission ECU. The speed signal is sent to the center module ECU either from the vehicle ECU (MID 144) or the engine ECU (MID 128) depending on the engine manufacturer:
W3003640
The speed signal is sent from the vehicle ECU via the J1587/J1708 information data link if the vehicle is equipped with a Volvo engine. The speed signal is sent from the engine ECU via the J1587/J1708 information data link if the vehicle is equipped with a Cummins or Detroit Diesel engine.
The speedometer is also available in a version with the graduation km/h as the main scale. Measuring range ....................... 0-80 mph (0-120 km/h)
Odometer
The odometer is a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) mounted behind the speedometer dial. It has a full scale reading of 999999.9. Odometer information is calculated from road speed via the J1587/J1708 information data link and is stored in the clusters microprocessor. The odometer backlighting can be adjusted independently of gauge backlighting, via the menu Setup mode in the graphic display. During normal operation, the odometer display goes blank 30 seconds after the ignition is switched off. To reactivate the display, turn the ignition on or press any of the control buttons on the wiper stalk switch. In the absence of speedometer data, the odometer display will not change and the speedometer pointer will remain at zero. The odometer value can be displayed either in miles or km. The unit selection is accessed via the menu Set-up mode in the graphic display in the left module. The actual unit of measurement is indicated by the annunciator miles and km, respectively, above the mileage value. If the instrument cluster or center module are replaced, the odometer may be programmed to reect the actual vehicle miles. For programming instruction see Odometer, Programming page 162. 30

Design and Function
Forward rear axle temperature gauge

The forward rear axle temperature gauge is an electrical aircore meter movement. It is connected to a temperature sender unit mounted on the axle housing. The higher the temperature, the lower the resistance of the sender unit. The sender signal is input to the microprocessor in the left module. In the microprocessor the signal is changed to a pulse width modulated (PWM) signal. The PWM signal is sent to the gauge via a wire. The gauge range is 90310 F. If the range is exceeded, a fault is logged.
W3003634
Rear rear axle temperature gauge

The rear rear axle temperature gauge is an electrical aircore meter movement. It is connected to a temperature sender unit mounted on the axle housing. The higher the temperature, the lower the resistance of the sender unit. The sender signal is input to the microprocessor in the left module. In the microprocessor the signal is changed to a pulse width modulated (PWM) signal. The PWM signal is sent to the gauge via a wire. The gauge range is 90310 F. If the range is exceeded, a fault is logged.
W3003635
Fuel level gauge

This gauge shows the approximate amount of fuel in the tank. The red sector indicates that it is time to refuel. The gauge gives a reading when the ignition key is in the ON position. The fuel level gauge is an electrical aircore meter movement that receives its signal from a sensor in the fuel tank. The fuel level sensor signal is input to the cluster microprocessor. In the microprocessor the signal is changed from a resistance to a pulse width modulated (PWM) signal. As the duty cycle of the signal increases, the level shown on the gauge increases. If the operating range of the gauge is exceeded, a fault is logged.

Graphic Display
The graphic display in the lower left-hand corner of the instrument cluster is used to present information to the driver, both when driving and when the vehicle is stationary. The graphic display replaces certain conventional gauges, telltale and warning lamps. It is standard equipment in all versions of the instrument cluster. The information can be divided into two groups: Preselected Information: The driver himself chooses what is to be shown. This includes the clock, gauges, etc. Automatically Generated Information: Information and stop messages are shown automatically on the graphic display at the same time as a yellow lamp ( INFO) or red lamp ( STOP) lights up at the bottom of the display. A fault code is also logged, and can be viewed in the FAULTS menu.
Graphic Display Layout

Menu symbol TEXTFIELD Status symbol
The display window is divided into three elds where the eld to the far left shows a symbol in conjunction with certain messages. The eld in the center displays all the text and some symbols, and the right-hand eld shows the status symbols for the various functions. The status symbols are to warn the driver about which functions are active at present. A total of four symbols can be shown in the right-hand eld at the same time. See Graphic Display Symbols page 37 for more information.
The seriousness of the fault determines which lamp is lit. Information and stop messages, shown during vehicle operation, require immediate action by the driver. When the red ( STOP) lamp lights up and the engine is running, a buzzer is also activated.

Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting Instrumentation Troubleshooting

When troubleshooting the instrument cluster, the graphic display or Volvos VCADS Pro diagnostic tool can be used. VCADS Pro provides several features not available within the cluster itself, such as the ability to test input signals and calibrate gauges individually. Many of the components can be tested without disturbing the cluster by using the cluster self test function in the graphic displays Diagnostic Menu. This includes all the telltale lamps, the graphic display, and all gauges except for the air gauges. The pivot-down mounting feature of the cluster allows troubleshooting of input signals without removing the cluster from the vehicle. Note: Instrument cluster programming. Each instrument cluster (or CPU board) is programmed to correspond to the customer-ordered options for that particular vehicle. This dataset is stored in the CPU board memory, making the instrument cluster unique to each vehicle. For this reason, it is not possible to swap a suspected faulty instrument cluster (or CPU board) with one from another vehicle without reprogramming the replacement instrument cluster (or CPU board). Authorized technicians can update and/or alter software datasets with the VCADS Pro tool. See the most current VCADS Pro user manual or the Help menu in the VCADS Pro tool. Important: Warranty Information. Individual modules in the instrument cluster are not serviceable during the warranty period. Individual electrical gauges are not serviceable at any time. Attempts to service or replace individual modules during the warranty period will void the cluster warranty. Instead, the whole unit may be exchanged. This section contains the following:

General Work Practices

CAUTION
Possible damage to electronic components. Turn the vehicle ignition switch OFF before disconnecting or connecting electrical components. Failure to de-energize circuits may result in electronic equipment damage.
CAUTION
To prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD), which may damage the sensitive electronic components in the instrument cluster, make sure the workbench has an anti-static mat which is grounded to the nearest electrical outlet when working on the instrument cluster. Failure to use an anti-static mat may result in permanent damage to the printed circuit boards in the instrument cluster. When working at the anti-static workbench, always keep a wrist strap connected to the anti-static mat.
CAUTION
To prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD), which may damage the sensitive electronic components in the instrument cluster, a wrist grounding strap must be used when working on electronic equipment such as the instrument cluster. Failure to use a wrist strap may result in permanent damage to the printed circuit boards in the instrument cluster. To use the wrist strap in a vehicle, attach the alligator clip to the nearest electrical ground such as a metal mounting screw, a ground terminal or preferably a ground stud.
CAUTION
When servicing or troubleshooting, do not leave the cluster face-down for more than 15 minutes, or damage to the gauges may occur. Gauge oil may run out of the front of the gauge faces and make the gauges inaccurate.

Instrument Cluster Tests with VCADS Pro
W0001632
The VCADS Pro tool is a Windows 95 based PC tool that can be used to perform instrument cluster testing, calibrations and programming. The tests are similar to the self tests in the instrument cluster. In addition, VCADS Pro allows the status of the buttons on the control lever to be checked, and individual gauges can be calibrated. The following is a brief description of the tests and calibration currently available. Additional tests may be added as newer versions of VCADS Pro become available. More information about the tests can be found in the most current VCADS Pro user manual or the Help menu in the VCADS Pro tool. Note: Mechanical (air pressure) gauges are not operated with these tests.
Telltale Lamps page 96).

Instrument Cluster, Test

This test is intended to check instrument cluster functions. During these tests sensor inputs are ignored and the instruments are driven by the instrument cluster microprocessor (CPU). These tests can also be run using the graphic display control buttons.
Graphic Display Control Buttons

The VCADS Pro screen will illuminate indicators to conrm that the graphic display control buttons are delivering a signal. The graphic display control buttons are used to access all instrument cluster and graphic display functions.
Bulb test
The test activates all telltale lamps and all red LED warning indicators. If the lamps do not light during the test, the lamp may not be operating or there may be a fault in the wiring used for the indicator lamp test (see
90
Troubleshooting
Gauge Accuracy Check

Accuracy checks can only be performed using VCADS Pro. The VCADS Pro tool can display the value of signals coming into the instrument cluster for most electrically operated gauges. These values can then be compared to the reading displayed on each respective gauge. If the reading displayed on the gauge appears not to match the value seen on the VCADS Pro tool, the gauge can be adjusted with the Gauge Calibration feature of the VCADS Pro tool. See the most current VCADS Pro user manual or the Help menu in the VCADS Pro tool. The calibration allows the gauge pointer to be adjusted so that it is at the center of the reference marks on the gauge face. Plus and minus adjustment icons on the VCADS Pro tool allow incremental adjustment of the pointer to the left, right and center reference marks. Note that if the gauge is calibrated at one point (such as the center mark), it may affect the calibration at another point on the gauge. Gauges should not be calibrated unless the readings are obviously inaccurate. Note: VCADS Pro does not have the capability of calibrating the speedometer or tachometer.

Troubleshooting
If all the telltale and LED indicator lamps function correctly in the Instrument Cluster Self Test or Instrument Cluster Tests using VCADS Pro, the lamps and instrument cluster electronics are working properly.
LED Indicator Lamps

LED lamps are integrated into the following gauges: engine oil pressure, engine coolant temperature, front brake air pressure and rear brake air pressure. LEDs, or Light Emitting Diodes, cannot be replaced like the bulb-type telltale lamps.
Engine oil pressure LED and Engine coolant temperature LED

The engine oil pressure and engine coolant temperature LEDs illuminate based on signals received from the J15878/J1708 information data link. There are no sensors hardwired to warning LEDs. LED Warning Lamp Check Key Position On Measurement Point Visual check Expected Value LEDs illuminate Note Measurements not expected value? Check: If LEDs do not illuminate, replace the cluster (or left gauge module or left CPU board if out of warranty).

Note: Problems with the left module gauges may be in the left CPU board or the left gauge module. No tests are currently available to isolate the problem area.
93
Troubleshooting
Front and Rear Air Pressure LEDs

The front and rear air pressure LEDs illuminate based on air pressure delivered to the instrument cluster. There are no sensors hardwired to the warning LEDs. Note: LEDs should illuminate below approx. 70 psi.
Step 1. Run cluster self-test (bulb test). If the lamps function correctly in this test, the lamps and instrument cluster electronics are working properly.
If only one of the LEDs comes on replace the cluster (or right module if out of warranty). If neither LED comes on, but the telltale lamps at the bottom do, replace the cluster (or right module if out of warranty). If no lamps illuminate go to step 2.
Step 2. Connect breakout box 9998551 with adapter J-43234 in series between wiring harness connector RX and the instrument cluster connector RX. Install overlay J-43340 with the 30PIN BREAKOUT HARNESS side up. The overlay is color-coded green for the RX connector pins. Proceed to the chart below.

The graphic display control buttons can be used to select instrument cluster self tests. From the graphic display System diagnostic menu, select Cluster self test, then Gauge test.
With the gauge test active the electrically operated gauges will sweep to full and half travel. This test is independent of any inputs to the instrument cluster. If the gauge operates properly with this test it is likely the gauge itself is functioning properly. 115
Troubleshooting
Gauge Tests, Accuracy and Calibration using VCADS Pro

Gauge Test With the Gauge test selected in the VCADS Pro tool, the electrically operated gauges will sweep to full and half travel. This test is independent of any inputs to the instrument cluster. If the gauge operates properly with this test it is likely the gauge itself is functioning properly. See the most current VCADS Pro user manual or the Help menu in the VCADS Pro tool. Gauge Calibration Most electrically operated gauges can be calibrated using the VCADS Pro tool. In the calibration process the gauge pointer can be set at the left, center and right gauge index marks. See the most current VCADS Pro user manual or the Help menu in the VCADS Pro tool. Note: VCADS Pro does not have the capability of calibrating the speedometer or tachometer. Gauge Checks The VCADS Pro tool can display the value of signals coming to the instrument cluster for most electrically operated gauges. These values can then be compared to the reading displayed on each respective gauge. If the reading displayed on the gauge is within a pointers width of the value seen on the VCADS Pro tool, the gauge is accurate. If the gauge accuracy is incorrect, it can be adjusted with the Gauge Calibration feature of the VCADS Pro tool. See the most current VCADS Pro user manual or the Help menu in the VCADS Pro tool. Note that if the gauge is calibrated at one point, it may affect the calibration at another point on the gauge. Gauges should not be calibrated unless the readings are obviously inaccurate.
Gauge Reaction to Short or Open Circuits

The gauges can be of assistance in the event of short and open circuits. This applies to all gauges that can be activated by the gauge test. See Instrument Cluster Diagnostic Tests page 89. In the event of a short-circuit to ground or supply voltage, the gauges display either the maximum or minimum readings. In the event of an open circuit the gauges display the minimum reading. Example: Pyrometer Gauge The display reads 1500 F if there is a short-circuit in the pyrometer wiring. 300 F or less is displayed if there is an open circuit in the wiring. Note that the fault can occur in wiring, connectors, sensors etc. The fault may occur as a result of mechanical faults, oxidation etc.

Intermittent Faults
In the event of an intermittent fault, the cause may be connector related. For further information on fault tracing of wiring and connectors, refer to (for circuitry information): Service Manual VN Series Electrical Schematics, Group 37 or VHD Series Electrical Schematic, Group 37

to reminder to caution. A different tone will sound with each display message. See the most current VCADS Pro user manual or the Help menu in the VCADS Pro tool.
Buzzer Tests
Step 1. Run the cluster self test. If the buzzer functions correctly in the self test the buzzer is OK. If the buzzer does not function properly in these tests, go to step 2. Step 2. Check for fault codes related to the system. If fault codes are present, repair fault condition, then recheck. If no fault codes related to the system are present go to step 3. Step 3. Connect breakout box 9998551 with adapter J-43234 in series between wiring harness connector CY and the instrument cluster connector CY. Install overlay J-43340 with the 30PIN BREAKOUT HARNESS side up. The overlay is color-coded blue for the CY connector pins. Proceed to the table below.
Note: If the breakout box tooling is not available, carefully back probe the instrument cluster connector pins with digital multimeter J39200 or an equivalent tool. See Connectors, Back-probing page 134. Note: There is no breakout box tooling available for connector CX. 130

General Work Practices
Important: Individual gauges or modules in the VN/VHD instrument cluster are not serviceable during the warranty period. Attempts to service or replace individual modules or gauges during the warranty period will void the cluster warranty. Instead, the whole instrument cluster may be exchanged. After the warranty expires, individual modules and air gauges can be replaced. Electrical gauges cannot be replaced individually. smaller than 1 volt, electrostatic discharge can be a subtle but destructive problem. Circuit boards mounted in the instrument cluster or in modules mounted elsewhere may not fail immediately after being hit with a static discharge. Rather they may work for a while, then fail for no apparent reason. The culprit then is often the normal warming up and cooling down process of the module, engine or cab interior. Grounding straps and anti-static mats are available for minimal cost from electronic supply stores. Grounding straps consist of a wrist strap, a coiled extension wire and an alligator clip. Be sure to purchase one with a long enough extension wire to allow freedom of movement. Anti-static wrist straps and mats are available from Kent-Moore (see Tools section of this manual). Call 1-800-328-6657.
CAUTION
Welding on trucks can damage the vehicle electrical system/components from the voltage and current spikes that normally occur when welding. It is preferable to avoid welding on an assembled truck, but if welding must be done on any structure on or in contact with the vehicle, disconnect the electrical connectors at the rear of the instrument cluster, all ECUs and the battery cables. When disconnecting the battery cables, disconnect any other ground cables connected to the battery rst, then the main battery ground. Attach the welder ground cable as close to the weld as possible. Preventing electrostatic discharge (ESD)
CAUTION
To prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD), which may damage the sensitive electronic components in the instrument cluster, a wrist grounding strap must be used when working on electronic equipment such as the instrument cluster. Failure to use a wrist strap may result in permanent damage to the printed circuit boards in the instrument cluster. To use the wrist strap in a vehicle, attach the alligator clip to the nearest electrical ground such as a metal mounting screw, a ground terminal or preferably a ground stud.
CAUTION
To prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD), which may damage the sensitive electronic components in the instrument cluster, make sure the workbench has an anti-static mat which is grounded to the nearest electrical outlet when working on the instrument cluster. Failure to use an anti-static mat may result in permanent damage to the printed circuit boards in the instrument cluster. When working at the anti-static workbench, always keep a wrist strap connected to the anti-static mat. 133
Service Procedures
Connectors, Back-probing
The tests in the troubleshooting section of this manual suggest the use of breakout boxes and harnesses. However, if the breakout box tooling is not available, the instrument cluster connector pins may be back-probed with digital multimeter J-39200 (or equivalent tool). Follow these steps when back-probing connectors.
Before working on the vehicle, set the parking brakes, place the transmission in neutral, and block the wheels. Failure to do so can result in unexpected vehicle movement and cause serious personal injury or death.
CAUTION
Before beginning this procedure, see General Work Practices page 133. 1 Make certain the vehicle ignition is OFF before beginning this procedure. 2
W3003661
Use the digital multimeter test probes to contact the metal portion of the connector pins. Do not puncture the wire insulation when probing. Do not allow the test probes to contact each other to avoid false readings and/or damage to the wiring, connectors or instrument cluster. 4
W3003656
W3003660
Wire Insertion Side
Use the pin-out charts in the VN Series Electrical Schematics or this manual to determine the exact location of the measuring points. Note that all drawings show the pins from the wire insertion side. 134
Front-probing: If it is necessary to disconnect a connector and front-probe a pin, never use the multimeter probes to directly contact the connector pins. Using these large probes can damage the connector pins and result in intermittent faults. To avoid damage, use tool J-42449 when front-probing connector pins.
