DESCRIPTION

A hill descent control indicator is standard equipment on all instrument clusters. However, on vehicles not equipped with an optional QuadraDrive four-wheel drive system this indicator is electronically disabled. The hill descent indication appears within the reconfigurable dot matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) display unit. The hill descent indicator consists of a textual HILL DESCENT CONTROL message which appears in place of the compass/trip computer information in the dot matrix display.

The dot matrix OLED is soldered onto the cluster electronic circuit board, and is visible through a window with a smoked clear lens located on the lower edge of the tachometer gauge dial face of the cluster overlay. The dark lens over the OLED prevents it from being clearly visible when it is not illuminated. The hill descent textual message appears in the same white color and at the same lighting level as the compass/trip computer information when it is illuminated by the instrument cluster electronic circuit board.

The hill descent indicator is serviced as a unit with the OLED in the instrument cluster.
