DESCRIPTION

An auto high beams (SmartBeam(TM)) indicator is standard equipment on all instrument clusters. However, on vehicles not equipped with the optional SmartBeam(TM) system this indicator is electronically disabled. The auto high beams indications appear within the reconfigurable dot matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) display unit. The auto high beams indicator consists of one of two textual messages which appear in place of the compass/trip computer information in the dot matrix display. The message is either AUTO HIGH BEAMS ON or AUTO HIGH BEAMS OFF.

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 textual messages appear in the same white color and at the same lighting level as the compass/trip computer information when they are illuminated by the instrument cluster electronic circuit board.

The auto high beams indicator is serviced as a unit with the OLED in the instrument cluster.
