Mazda CX-5 Service & Repair Manual: Odometer/Tripmeter

Purpose

• The odometer/tripmeter notifies the user of the total travel distance or the traveled distance over a specific interval.

Function

• The instrument cluster calculates the traveled distance based on the traveled distance signal from the PCM and displays it.

• The instrument cluster stores the calculated travel distance in the microcomputer of the instrument cluster.

Odometer calculation function

• The instrument cluster calculates the total traveled distance based on the traveled distance signal from the PCM and the stored traveled distance, and displays it.

• The total traveled distance which can be displayed is from 0 to 999,999.

Tripmeter A/B calculation function

• The instrument cluster calculates the traveled distance based on the traveled distance signal from the PCM and the traveled distance from when the tripmeter is reset, and displays it.

• There are A and B tripmeters and the display for each can be switched with each press of the tripmeter switch.

• If the tripmeter switch is continuously pressed for approx. 1 s or more

  , the tripmeter traveled distance is reset (0.0)

• The traveled distance which can be displayed is from 0.0 to 999.9. After 999.9, it returns to 0.

Construction

• The odometer/tripmeter is displayed in the LCD of the instrument cluster.

  

  
  

• The tripmeter switch is installed to the instrument cluster.

• The calculation for the odometer/tripmeter display and the traveled distance is performed by the instrument cluster microcomputer.

Operation

• The instrument cluster receives (1) the traveled distance signal from the PCM when the ignition is switched ON (engine on).

• The instrument cluster calculates the traveled distance (2) in the recorded total traveled distance (odometer) data and the traveled distance over a specific interval (tripmeter) based on the received traveled distance signal.

• The instrument cluster displays (3) the calculated travel distance in the LCD.

  

  
  

Odometer/tripmeter switching operation

• The instrument cluster switches the odometer/tripmeter display when a tripmeter switch ON is detected.

• The instrument cluster returns the traveled distance display to 0.0 when a tripmeter switch ON is detected for 1 s or more while tripmeter A or B is displayed.

  

  
  

Fail-safe

• Function not equipped.
