ILLUMINATION CONTROL
  • HINT:
  • If the engine switch is turned on (IG), the illumination control operates as follows. However, all illuminations other than the tachometer needle turn off while cranking the engine.

The speedometer and tachometer needles illuminate starting from the base of the needles and moving to their tips.

DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM

Meter / Gauge System - System Description. METER. Lexus IS250 IS220d GSE20 ALE20

The combination meter assembly indicates the diagnosis mode by blinking the warning light or by blinking the warning message in the multi-information display.

  • HINT:
The multi-information display shows "DIAG" when the engine switch is on (IG) .
Diagnosis information can be displayed on the multi-information display after connecting a jumper wire between terminals TC (J21-13) and CG (J21-4) of the DLC3 connector.
SATELLITE SWITCH

By using the satellite switch (RH switch, ON/OFF switch, LH switch), 6 different switch functions can be displayed and changed (SPEED indicator, TACH indicator, Intrusion sensor (*1), Clearance sonar (*2), AFS (*3), Priming (*4)).

While driving at 3 mph (5 km/h) or less, the switch except for clearance sonar (SPEED indicator, TACH indicator, Intrusion sensor (*1), AFS (*3), Priming (*4)) can be displayed.
The switch functions displayed are changed in the order shown in the illustration using the satellite switch (RH switch, LH switch). The function can be set using the ON/OFF switch.
The display automatically returns to the previous display 6 seconds after the satellite switch is operated. It will return to the previous display immediately if the DISP switch is operated.

SPEED and TACH indicator

The SPEED indicator and TACH indicator come on when the vehicle speed or engine speed reaches the speed set using the satellite switch. The setting ranges of these indicators are shown in the table that follows.
Vehicle speed or engine speed can be set using the satellite switch.
These indicators consist of yellow and red dots that are arranged to form indicator rings.
When the set vehicle speed or engine speed is reached while driving, the red and yellow dots will turn on at the same time to cause amber light to illuminate the indicator ring.
However, if the vehicle or engine speed is set to the maximum speed of the indicator setting range, and the speed reaches this set speed, only red light will illuminate the indicator ring.
