Door and swing gate ajar indicators are standard equipment on all instrument clusters. The ajar indications appear within the fixed segment odometer Vacuum-Fluorescent Display (VFD) unit. The odometer VFD ajar indicators are textual messages that appears in place of the odometer/trip odometer information.
The odometer VFD unit is soldered onto the cluster electronic circuit board, and is visible through a window with a smoked clear lens located at the base of the cluster overlay tachometer dial face. The dark lens over the VFD prevents it from being clearly visible when it is not illuminated. The ajar indicator textual messages appear in the same blue-green color and at the same lighting level as the other information displayed in the odometer VFD when they are illuminated by the instrument cluster electronic circuit board.
The ajar indicators are serviced as a unit with the odometer VFD unit in the instrument cluster.
