Purpose
The AFS OFF indicator light notifies the user that the AFS is stopped or a malfunction occurs in the AFS.
Function
The AFS OFF indicator light illuminates when the AFS is stopped and flashes when a malfunction occurs in the AFS.
Construction
When the microcomputer in the instrument cluster receives a AFS OFF indicator light illumination request, it controls the illumination and flashing of the AFS OFF indicator light based on the received illumination request.
