IMPORTANT:
Before performing any Service Operation or other procedure described in this Section, refer to Section
00 CAUTIONS AND NOTES for correct workshop practices with regard to safety and/or property damage.
1. GENERAL I NFORMATI O N
The ins trum ents, wipers/ washers and horn f itted to VU Series Models carr y over from VX Series Models, noting the
following:
• VU Series Models with V6 engine and m anual tr ansm iss ion have a final drive r atio of 3.46:1, requir ing a unique
speedometer calibration.
• VU Series Models are fitted with a new fuel tank and sender configuration, requiring a unique fuel level gauge
calibration.
For information relating to the Instruments, Wipers/Washers and Horn fitted to VU Series Models not covered in this
Section, refer to Section 12C INST RUMENT S, W IPERS/W ASHERS & HORN in the VX Series Service Information
in conjunction with Section 12C INSTRUMENT S, WIPERS/WASHERS & HO RN in the VT Series I and VT Series II

2. SERVICE OPERATIONS
The s ervice operations for ins truments , wipers /was hers and horn as fitted to VU Ser ies Models carry over from VT
Series I and VT Series II Models, noting the following:
• Removal and reinstallation procedures for the instrum ent cluster as fitted to VU Series Models carry over from
the VT Series I, refer to Section 12C – INSTRUMENTS, WIPERS/WASHERS & HORN in the VT Series I
Service Information. However, the instrument configuration and fuel level gauge calibration procedures during
the programming of the new instrument cluster is unique.
• If the instrument cluster is found to be faulty, the replacement cluster must be programmed following
installation.
For information relating to the instrument configuration procedure for VU Series Models, refer to
3.1 INSTRUMENT CONFIGURATION in this Section.
For information relating to the fuel level guage calibration procedure for VU Series Models, refer to
3.2 FUEL LEVEL GUAGE CALIBRATION in this Section.

3. INSTRUMENT DIAGNOSTICS
3.1 INSTRUMENT CONFIGURATION
VU Series Models with V6 engine and manual transmission are fitted with a 3.46:1 final drive ratio. Consequently,
the correct PPK (pulses per km) values must be entered during the instrument configuration procedure.
If an instrument cluster is replaced in VU Series Models, the following procedure must be performed.
