DOUBLE METERS


System Description


DOUBLE METER





Oil pressure gauge and G-force gauge are controlled by the double meter.

Oil Pressure Warning Lamp
The oil pressure warning lamp is controlled by the double meter. When the oil pressure is less than 4.52 psi
(0.318 kg/cm2), the double meter sends a ground signal to the IPDM E/R. The IPDM E/R then sends a signal to the combination meter via CAN communication and the oil pressure warning lamp is turned on. When the oil pressure is greater than 6.5 psi (0.457 kg/cm2) the warning lamp turns off.

POWER SUPPLY AND GROUND CIRCUIT
Power is supplied at all times
- through 10A fuse [No. 19, located in the fuse block (J/B)]
- to double meter terminal 7 and
- to combination meter terminal 1.
With the ignition switch in the ON or START position, power is supplied
- through 10A fuse [No. 14, located in the fuse block (J/B)]
- to double meter terminal 8 and
- to combination meter terminal 2.
With the ignition switch in the ACC or ON position, power is supplied
- through 10A fuse [No. 6, located in the fuse block (J/B)]
- to combination meter terminal 23.
Ground is supplied
- to double meter terminals 9 and 10 and
- to combination meter terminals 3 and 21
- through body grounds M57 and M61.

OIL PRESSURE GAUGE
The oil pressure gauge indicates engine oil pressure.
With the ignition switch in the ON or START position, power is supplied
- through double meter terminal 3
- to oil pressure sensor terminal 3.
Ground is supplied
- through double meter terminal 5
- to oil pressure sensor terminal 1.
Double meter receives oil pressure signal from oil pressure sensor
- through oil pressure sensor terminal 2
- to double meter terminal 4.

G-FORCE GAUGE
The G-force gauge indicates the longitudinal acceleration and deceleration G-forces while driving. The indication is based on a calculation using the speed input supplied by the combination meter via CAN communication. The gauge does not indicate cornering G-forces.
