We study the designation of icons on the instrument panel of the VAZ 2114

The VAZ 2114 dashboard is the main information block, which displays data on the current functional state of the car. It is located on the dashboard, directly in front of the driver's seat.

We study the designation of icons on the instrument panel of the VAZ 2114
Tidying VAZ 2114, 2113,2115

The panel itself contains three types of elements:

  • Indicator lights indicating the amount of consumables required for the operation of the car - gasoline, oil, brake fluid, etc.;
  • Speedometer and tachometer;
  • A control element for switching the speedometer operating mode.

Also, the concept of “instrument cluster” usually includes levers for turning on turn signals, buttons for controlling headlights, heater, and other communications of the car.

The VAZ 2114 dashboard diagram looks like this:

From this article you will learn the designation of the icons on the dashboard of the VAZ 2114, the reasons for the indicators to light up, as well as the measures that need to be taken to eliminate the problems that have arisen.

Basic devices and their interpretation

Of course, the most significant instruments on the dashboard are:

  • Speedometer;
  • Tachometer;
  • Coolant temperature indicator;
  • Fuel level indicator in the tank.

Let's study them in more detail.

  1. Speedometer. The VAZ 2114 provides for the installation of an induction speedometer, which receives speed data thanks to a sensor located on the gearbox. The speedometer shows the current speed of the vehicle. The scale is divided from 0 to 200 kilometers per hour in increments of 10 kilometers per hour. Such devices have an error of at least 5 kilometers per hour. At the bottom center of the speedometer is a two-line display. She reports the current mileage, and the second one reports the total mileage completed on this car.
  2. Tachometer. It is located to the left of the speedometer. The tachometer is an electronic device that receives signals from the on-board computer and reflects the current crankshaft speed. The scale is divided into 5 units. Digitization - every 10 scale units. The maximum tachometer scale is 80. Multiplying this number by 100, we get the number of revolutions. For example, if the scale is 40, then the crankshaft rotates 4000 rpm. The range from 55 to 60 has red shading, and 80 is completely red. These are critical speeds, when the arrow reaches which the engine operates under extreme loads and may fail. At the bottom of the tachometer in the middle the time and air temperature are displayed.
  3. Coolant temperature indicator. The coolant temperature should be constantly monitored, because for this purpose there is a corresponding indicator on the dashboard. It is located to the left of the tachometer and reports the current coolant temperature. The data comes from the corresponding sensor. The division is made in 20 degree increments. Digitization starts at 50, then goes to 90 and 130. The danger zone begins at 105 degrees. If the arrow is in this zone, the engine must be stopped immediately, otherwise overheating and breakdown will occur.
  4. Fuel level indicator. It is located to the right of the speedometer. The scale shows numbers and images that mean: 0 - the tank is empty;
  5. 1/2 - the tank is half full;
  6. tank full;
  7. Image of a gas station at the top - the tank is filled to its maximum capacity;
  8. Image of a gas station at the bottom right with orange backlight - less than 6 liters of fuel left in the tank.

MAIN PANEL ELEMENTS

The main place on the dashboard is reserved for the tachometer and speedometer, the fuel quantity sensor and the current fluid temperature in the cooling system. Let's look at the main symbols on the VAZ 2114 panel in more detail.

  • Tachometer

The VAZ 2114 tachometer is a pointer device, the signal to which is sent by the on-board computer of the fourteenth. The tachometer displays data on the number of revolutions of the crankshaft at the current time. The tachometer is divided by scales into 5 units, every second of which is digitized. The maximum numerical value of revolutions is 80.

To find out the actual engine speed when the car is moving, the tachometer indicator must be multiplied by 100. For example, if the arrow is located at 40, then the crankshaft is performing 4000 revolutions per minute.

The manufacturer has indicated a critical speed value, upon reaching which the engine of the fourteenth may fail due to excessive load. It is highlighted on the device with red shading; this value ranges from 6000 to 8000 rpm.

Under the tachometer there is an electronic window, which displays data about the current time and ambient air temperature.

  • Speedometer

The fourteenth has an induction dial speedometer, which is located on the right side of the dashboard. The speedometer is also divided into sectors, the division size is 10 kilometers. The maximum mark is 200 km.

The speedometer operates from a speed measurement sensor located inside the gearbox. It is worth considering that all induction speedometers, including the one installed on the fourteenth, have an acceptable error level of 5 km/h.

At the bottom of the speedometer needle there is an electronic screen on which you can see data on the total mileage of the car and the mileage from the last starting point. The driver himself can set the starting point; for this, under the number 200 on the speedometer there is a manual switch that resets the current mileage count to zero.

  • Gasoline quantity sensor

On the right side of the instrument panel of the VAZ 2114 (the instrument panel of the VAZ 2114 and the designation of the indicators on the instrument panel of the VAZ 2113 are completely similar to the fourteenth model) there is a dial gauge for the current amount of fuel in the gas tank.

The sensor scale is divided into three marks: 1 – full tank, ½ – tank half full, 0 – empty tank.

Next to the sensor there is a color indicator - a light bulb that lights up orange when the fuel level is close to a critical minimum. When the light comes on, you need to refuel the car within 20-30 kilometers.

  • Cooling system fluid temperature sensor

The coolant temperature sensor is divided into gradations of 20 units. The minimum temperature is 50, the maximum is 130 degrees. The critical temperature zone starts at 105 degrees and is marked with red shading.

If the coolant of the fourteenth boils, then you must immediately stop the car and turn off the engine, since driving in this mode is fraught with serious troubles, even complete engine failure.

If the temperature sensor on the VAZ 2114 dashboard does not work, you need to check the wiring through which the sensor is connected to the coolant container. It is also possible that the sensor contacts may oxidize; they must either be wiped with a solvent or the sensor replaced with a new one.

Indicator paws

The symbols on the VAZ 2114 dashboard are made in accordance with the requirements and standards. They are unified so that they are understandable to all drivers. Indicator designations are located at the bottom of the shield.

Tuning the instrument panel of VAZ 2114

The table describes the symbols that are used in the diagrams and on the dashboard.

Pinout

The VAZ 2114 instrument panel pinout shows the correct order of connecting the wires of measuring and information devices, in other words, this is the electronic circuit of the instrument panel. You will need it if you want to make any changes to the standard panel configuration or carry out repairs and replacement of parts. For each car model and specific dashboard, the diagram will be slightly different; for example, the diagram on the VAZ 2115 has significant differences from the 2114 model.

The circuit consists of 26 connections, which are made according to an electronic circuit. Usually the diagram should come with the car manual. It’s not a problem to get a description of her work now.

There are two pads inside the panel - one red and one white. The devices will be connected to them in a certain sequence.

There is nothing complicated in the pinout if the user has basic knowledge of the rules for connecting wires - plus to plus, minus to minus. If you have a diagram of the instrument panel on hand, you can start tuning individual devices or the entire set so that the instrument panel of the 2114 model becomes more visually pleasing.

The panel pinout is a diagram, but the diagram described in words seems easier for many. The contacts located on the instrument panel, and there are only 26 of them, are responsible for the operation of the indicators on the panel itself.

If a plus is applied, then each of the contacts shows information and the state in which the car is currently located. The panel is equipped with sensors and signal indicators, and the panel is controlled using an electronic unit.

Inside the panel there are two pads - red and white. Fuses, inputs and outputs, controllers are connected to a specific plug. If the sensors fail, they need to be replaced.

You can check the serviceability of the wiring by disassembling the instrument panel. Oxidized or damaged wires must be replaced. Indicator lights may fail. Burnt out light bulbs must be replaced with new ones.

A faulty lamp sensor must also be replaced. The contact between the board and the lamp must be well connected, otherwise the ends of the contacts should be cleaned, bent, and if necessary, replace the lamp socket.

If the backlight stops working or the radio is faulty, the fuse must be replaced. Maybe the damage is not in the fuse, but in the wiring, which also requires replacement.

A short circuit in the fuse can also damage it.

INDICATOR BUGS

Also, the instrument panel on the VAZ 2114 has a block of light indicators, which includes the following icons:

Indicators
Indicators

Let's look at the designation of the icons on the instrument panel in more detail:

  1. An indicator that displays information about the current engine oil level. When the amount of lubricating fluid is critically low, the light turns orange. Oil must be added immediately after this indicator becomes active;
  2. This indicator indicates a low amount of working fluid in the windshield washer reservoir. The tank is designed for 5 liters of liquid, the indicator turns on when its quantity drops below 1 liter;
  3. Fluid quantity sensor in the engine cooling system. One of the most important indicators that needs to be closely monitored;
  4. Indicates the presence of unlocked doors. Lights up red;
  5. An indicator that lights up if the dimensions or brake lights are out of order. The active indicator color is red;
  6. A light that lights up in case of critical wear of the brake pads (1.5 mm). Lights up from the moment you first press the brakes until the car is turned off;
  7. An indicator indicating that the driver is not wearing seat belts.

An exclamation mark on the instrument panel of a VAZ 2114 can light up in two cases: when the car’s starter is turned on, and when the brake fluid level is low. As a rule, the reason is in the second option.

To eliminate the problem, completely fill the tank and check the contacts of the TZ level sensor, which are located on the container lid, for oxidation.

If the engine icon on the panel is on, it means something is wrong with the power unit of the fourteenth. There are many reasons why the Check Engine light comes on; it often stays on even when there are no visible faults. It is best to go to a service station for diagnostics, this way you will be protected from possible problems.

Pinout of the instrument panel VAZ 2114

Does not work

Even if the fuse is intact, then do not be lazy to take it out and check the condition of the contacts. There are cases when the contacts oxidize, and the electrical circuit in this place is interrupted. After making sure that the fuse is intact, the next step is to check the ignition relay, which is located inside the car to the left of the steering column. It is attached to a pin upside down. In the block where this relay is inserted, you can try to short-circuit the power wires using a jumper. If the instrument panel comes to life, the ignition relay will have to be replaced.

If the ignition relay is working properly, there are only two possible reasons for the instrument panel not working: the ignition switch and the mounting block. Before installing the ignition relay on the VAZ-2109 car, the lock contacts burned quite often, and they had to be cleaned by disconnecting the contact group from the lock itself. After changes were made to the principle of supplying voltage to the ignition switch, its contacts began to burn very rarely, but the likelihood of this phenomenon still remained. On the mounting block, in its board, tracks may burn out; in order to see this, the mounting block will have to be removed from the car.

In addition to the reasons listed above, which can lead to failure of the instrument panel, it is also necessary to check the reliability of fastening the ground wire.

Instructions: replacing the front bumper.

Replacing the hood cable https://vz15-up.ru/kzv/kapot-vaz-2115.html#t2.

Does not burn

— burnout of incandescent lamps or failure of the LED group;

— failure of the fuse box;

— damage to the common contact board;

— no weight on the body (minus) or damage to the dimensions system.

To find a fault, you must use diagnostic equipment, a tester or a voltmeter. If a breakdown is found, you can begin repairs.

Light bulbs, indicators icons

Having a photo of the icons in front of you will make it much easier to understand their designation on the instrument panel of the VAZ 2114.

The icons are made in strict accordance with the norms and requirements, which allows you to understand their designation, regardless of the model or manufacturer. All car companies must unify designations. This allows every driver to understand their essence.

Dashboard buttons

The buttons also have a specific location in the AP layout.

Control buttons on VAZ 2114

Each of them has its own purpose:

  1. The button located to the right of the speedometer allows you to switch the time and temperature on the electronic display. If you press it for more than 5 seconds when the car is at rest, the current mileage readings will be reset.
  2. To the right above the speedometer on the dashboard there is a combination of two buttons. Using the button with the image of 2 headlights, the side lights are turned on. The button with one headlight is used to turn on the low beam.
  3. The button, which shows a headlight with inclined strokes, is designed to turn on the front fog lights.
  4. A button with horizontal strokes is used to turn on the rear fog lights.
  5. The button with a rectangle allows you to turn on the function that will heat the rear window.

It’s not difficult to understand all the indicators, APs and buttons if you have a layout diagram in the car’s manual. This article helps you understand all the notations.

To summarize, we can say that the AP panel displays the following useful information:

  • technical characteristics of the vehicle, the degree of its safety at the time of movement;
  • availability of gasoline, level of working fluids;
  • information about the dynamics of movement: speed, crankshaft speed, etc.;
  • operation of various vehicle devices;
  • other useful information, such as time, temperature, etc.

LED instrument panel VAZ 2114

This information can be obtained by various sensors and measuring instruments included in the electrical circuit of the machine. Since the design and connection diagram of the AP is simple, it is easy to disassemble and assemble. Therefore, if you wish, you can perform tuning, make an overlay, insert additional elements, you can make backlighting from LEDs.

If any indicators on the dashboard begin to light up, you should react to this immediately. A fault detected and corrected in a timely manner will make it possible to avoid problems on the road and extend the service life of the vehicle.

Pinout, tuning, lighting and removal of the VAZ-2114 instrument panel

The VAZ dashboard has an electronic combination, as well as conveniently located backlighting. The lamps are illuminated from the inside, which is a feature of the 14th Lada.

Thanks to the instrument panel, the driver knows all the information he needs, what is the reserve and consumption of gasoline, mileage, etc. The panel should be easy to operate with a clear overview of the icons, scale, gauge and indicators.

What is the state of the automobile systems responsible for road safety, driving speed, the rest of the way to the intended object, rational engine operation and gasoline consumption, the operation of the suspension and electrical equipment - all this should be reflected on the control panel.

Signal lamps and equipment control devices must be required on the panel. There are a total of 19 symbols on the panel.

Main information devices

The instrument panels of the VAZ 2114 show information about the status of important operating components of the car. The main part is an information block with two round scales and several smaller indicators.

  1. The speedometer is the right round scale on the panel with marks from 0 to 200 km/h, which shows the speed of the car. The device sensor is located in the transmission assembly and is connected to the display in the cabin. Below the scale there is a window that displays the vehicle's mileage.
  2. The indicator to the right of the speedometer shows the level of gasoline in the tank. It has three main divisions - 1, ½ and 0. One - the tank is full, zero - empty. When the fuel is running low, the orange fuel icon lights up.
  3. The tachometer is the second large round scale, which is located on the left of the panel. Displays information about the crankshaft rotation speed - engine operation. Its norm is 3500-5500 rpm, everything beyond that is a critical value at which breakdowns of the engine unit occur. The indicator below the scale displays the air temperature around the engine.
  4. The small indicator to the left of the tachometer is the cooling fluid temperature sensor. Values ​​from 50 to 130°C, where a value of 105°C and above indicates possible engine overheating.
