1. Driver Information Center (DIC) Switch Malfunction |
The driver information switch is normally an open momentary switch. Power is provided to the driver information center (DIC) switch via the instrument panel cluster (IPC). The IPC interfaces with the DIC switch via 4 discreet circuits. Each switch input to the IPC is pulled low or grounded when a switch is activated. The DIC switch includes the PERSONALIZATION, SELECT, FUEL, and TRIP switch.

⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuits for an open/high resistance. |
⇒ | If any are not the specified value, test the signal circuit terminals listed below for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the IPC. |
