Icons on the on-board computer of the VAZ 2110

The instrument panel of the VAZ 2110, as in any car, both imported and Russian, must determine the general condition of the car, and must show all information about: the amount of fuel, engine temperature and the presence (quantity) of engine lubricants.

In addition to the above data, the VAZ instrument panel displays all the errors (current malfunctions) of the car.

Further in the article, I will give you a complete description of the VAZ 2110 dashboard and tell you about the description of buttons, lamps, light indicators, and tell you about common errors that may appear on your display while on the road.

- useful tips for the motorist

What standard trip computers exist?

Option 1. In the instrument cluster.

Option 2. Installed instead of a small plug next to the ACS unit

These were installed on “luxury” dozens.
There are models AMK 211000 without diagnostics, and AMK 211001, AMK 211002 with diagnostics. You can find out which one you have by looking at the numbers on the back cover. To do this, naturally, the MK must be removed. If on the back there are the inscriptions AMK-211001 or AMK 211002, and in clock mode, when you press the “clock” button, the inscriptions Err appear and then two more - great. You have a full-fledged bookmaker. If these are the inscriptions:

Unfortunately, this is a BC that either lacks diagnostic capabilities or has “cut-off” firmware.” Craftsmen resolder and reflash such models, but in my opinion they are not worth it.

It is very easy to remove such a MK. We disconnect the terminal of the “negative” wire from the battery terminal. We pry it off with a screwdriver...

remove the MK from its seat....

....disconnect the wire block from it.

Instructions for replacing the tidy yourself

Instructions for replacing the shield yourself:

First, you need to turn off the ignition and turn off the power to the Tens electrical network; to do this, open the hood and disconnect the terminal from the battery.
The switches located on the sides of the tidy are removed.
Then use a Phillips head screwdriver to unscrew the bolts that secure the device.
Next, you need to dismantle the mountings of the tidy to the trim. After this, the shield can be easily removed from its seat, and the glass can also be removed.
The next step is to disconnect all the connectors and connectors connected to the dashboard.
When the connectors are disconnected, the panel is dismantled. It is repaired or replaced with a new one, the assembly steps are performed in the reverse order (the video was filmed by the channel In the Garage).

Designations on the MK screen

The trip computer (MC), shown in the figure, is installed in a variant version instead of a clock. MK has 15 functions, divided into 3 groups. The group is selected using buttons 1, 2 and 3.

In each group, functions are divided into basic and additional. The main functions are navigated through the ring using buttons 1, 2 and 3. Additional functions are navigated through button 5. When the ignition is turned off, the computer is always in the “Current Time” mode. When the battery is removed, the clock progress and all accumulated parameters are retained for at least 1 month.

Dashboard VAZ 2110 icon designations

The VAZ2110, like any other modern car, has a complex dashboard equipped with many icons. It is located behind and on top of the steering column. Sometimes the instrument panel is called a dashboard. Some of the indicators are also located on the car's dashboard.

Many novice and even motorists with some driving experience do not clearly understand the meaning of many of the icons on the instrument panel of the VAZ 2110. The reason for this is that most of them light up only when the ignition key is turned for a few seconds, and then they go out. In rare cases, only one of them remains burning. This means that one of the car's systems is faulty.

We will describe in detail the instrument panel of the VAZ 2110 and provide descriptions of all the pictograms, lamps and indicators available there.

Let's start from the top

(we will go from the far right to the far left):

Large scale with an arrow pointing to it. At the top and bottom there are gas station icons. The top one is white and the bottom one is red. The arrow shows the level of gasoline in the tank; when it drops to a level of about 5-7 liters, the red gas station icon lights up. Important! Do not allow all the fuel in the tank to be depleted. Otherwise, it will damage the fuel pump.
Close-up image of a speedometer with an arrow. It shows the speed at which the car is currently traveling (km per hour).
Just above and to the left of the speedometer there are two arrows in different directions - they show the operation of the turning lights.
The scale is as large as the speedometer - it is called a tachometer and reflects the speed of rotation of the engine crankshaft. (from 0 to 80). Important! The driver needs to monitor the tachometer readings - its needle should not go into the red zone.
The leftmost scale marks the antifreeze level from 50 to 130. Antifreeze is responsible for cooling a running car engine. If there is a lack of antifreeze (most often it is antifreeze), interruptions will very quickly follow, and then engine failure due to overheating.

Instrument panel VAZ 2110 designations: 1 - coolant temperature indicator; 2 — tachometer; 3 — control lamp for turning on the left turn signal; 4 — control lamp for turning on the right turn signal; 5 — speedometer; 6 — fuel level indicator in the tank; 7 — fuel reserve warning lamp; 8 — control lamp for turning on external lighting; 9 - warning lamp for emergency condition of the working brake system; 10 — control lamp for turning on the high beam headlights; 11 — button for resetting the daily mileage counter and setting the clock; 12 — liquid crystal mileage indicator (odometer); 13 - warning lamp for malfunction of the engine management system; 14 — warning lamp for turning on the hazard warning lights; 15 — liquid crystal display of time and ambient temperature; 16 — battery charge indicator lamp; 17 - control lamp for turning on the parking brake; 18 — warning lamp for insufficient oil pressure; 19 — control lamp for closing the carburetor air damper (for cars with carburetor engines).

The lower part of the dashboard of the VAZ 2110

carries the following lamps and indicators (from right to left):

The pictogram of a light-emitting lamp indicates the operation of the vehicle’s side lights.
A red circle with an exclamation mark inscribed in it - this indicator begins to glow when there is insufficient fluid in the brake system. Operating the car in this case is not recommended to avoid accidents. There is an urgent need to diagnose and probably repair the brake system of the VAZ 2110.
A symbolic image of a burning headlight - it lights up when the high beam is turned on. Important! When driving, do not forget to switch to low beam if another car is moving towards you.
Dedicated setting button and adjustable LCD display. It displays the mileage of the car for a certain period of time and the current time.
Engine fault and alarm icons - they are located one above the other. The first glows yellow, and the second glows red.
Battery icon. It lights up when car devices are operating from this power source.
An icon in the form of a red circle with a symbol inscribed in it indicates that the parking (hand) brake is applied.
A red pictogram in the form of an oil can indicates an insufficient amount of oil in the engine unit. Important! Under no circumstances should you start the car engine if this pictogram is illuminated. Otherwise, serious damage is inevitable!
Yellow symbolic image of a deployed airbag. Indicates a failure in the operation of this system.

An additional panel located on the dashboard houses additional indicators and lamps. They partially duplicate and complement the information of the main dashboard.

This is first of all:

open door designation;
problem in the operation of the windshield wipers (lack of fluid in the reservoir);
brake pad wear indicator;
not wearing a seat belt;
breakdown of side or brake lights.

More about the block

Open doors

This function works thanks to limit switches in the door. When the door is opened, the switch contacts close and the door open lamp lights up. Each limit switch is responsible for the door in which it is installed.

Quite often it happens that due to oxidation of the limit switch contacts, the indication does not operate. This problem is solved by removing the end switch and cleaning its contacts with sandpaper.

Low oil level

A special oil level sensor is installed in the engine crankcase, which informs the driver when the level drops to a minimum value. The sensor is a reed switch with a float; the contacts of the reed switch close when the oil level drops, which leads to the lighting of the corresponding lamp on the display unit.

Low antifreeze level

This indication system is similar to the oil level design. A sensor is installed in the expansion tank, operating on the principle of an oil level sensor. When the coolant level decreases, the contacts on the sensor close and the low antifreeze level indicator lamp lights up.

Low washer fluid level

The principle of operation of this indicator is to measure the windshield washer fluid level. There is a level sensor in the washer reservoir, the same as in the expansion tank. It measures the level and, when the minimum mark is reached, lights the lamp on the display unit.

Front pad wear

This indication informs the driver about the wear of the front pads; this occurs using a sensor that is connected to the pad itself. It is important to note that in order for this indication to work, it is necessary to use special blocks in which this sensor is built-in.

Unfastened seat belt

This function has long been known on cars of foreign origin, but it was used for the first time in AvtoVAZ. The sensor built into the seat belt buckle closes its contacts when the belt clip is inserted into it. If you start driving without a seat belt fastened, the display unit will begin to emit a sound warning of danger.

Burnt out lamp indication

The essence of this function is to inform the driver about one of the burnt-out lamps in the headlights or taillights. This function works by measuring the resistance in the power supply circuit of headlights or flashlights. As soon as the lamp burns out, the power circuit is interrupted, which causes the indicator on the unit to light up.

The display unit of the on-board control system of VAZ 2110, VAZ 2111, VAZ 2112 vehicles can be in the following modes: off; Standby mode; pre-departure monitoring of signaling devices; parameter control. The display unit of the on-board control system of the car VAZ 2110, VAZ 2111, VAZ 2112 is in the “Off” mode if the key is not inserted into the ignition switch. In position 0 (“Off”) of the key in the ignition switch, the display unit of the on-board control system goes into “Standby Mode”. If the driver’s door is opened, the “Forgotten key in the ignition switch” malfunction will occur and the on-board control system display unit will sound for 5-10 seconds. will give an intermittent signal. The signal can be interrupted either by closing the door, or by removing the key, or by turning the key in the ignition switch to position I (“Ignition”). In position I of the key in the ignition switch, the display unit of the on-board control system of the VAZ 2110, VAZ 2111, VAZ 2112 vehicles switches to the “Pre-departure control of alarms” mode, in which to check their serviceability for 2-6 seconds. all light and sound indicators turn on, and then after a pause of 1 second, the display unit of the on-board control system switches to the “Parameter Monitoring” mode and, if there is a malfunction, generates an alarm according to the following algorithm: the indicator light for the parameter that is outside the normal range begins to flash for 5-10 seconds, after which it switches to a constant glow mode until the malfunction is eliminated or the key in the ignition switch returns to position 0 (“Off”); simultaneously with the light indicator for 5-10 seconds. the sound alarm turns on; If at the same time another malfunction occurs, then the sound alarm and light alarm in the blinking mode begin to work for the last malfunction, as a higher priority, and the light indicator of the previous malfunction goes into constant light mode.

Trouble-shooting

To eliminate the malfunctions indicated by the alarm, you must take important troubleshooting steps:

If the low oil alarm is on, add oil to the engine crankcase.
Washer system alarm - add windshield washer fluid.
Alarm – bringing the coolant level to normal.
Door open alarm - close the doors or remove the key from the ignition.
Malfunction of brake lights and side lights - correct the operation of these systems.
The disadvantage of brake linings is to fix the damage.
Seat belt warning – fasten the seat belts in the required position.

All these alarm indicators are placed in a special place and are called the on-board system display unit for the VAZ 2110. When triggered, they emit both a light signal and a sound signal. There are two sensors that constantly operate when the engine is on. This is also a brake pad wear sensor. If they are faulty, the on-board control system, or rather the on-board systems display unit of the VAZ 2110, will not show a reliable result. It is necessary to constantly monitor the operation of these sensors.

It should be noted that the moment you turn the ignition key, all indicators on the dashboard are fully tested. At this point, it is necessary to check the operation of each alarm light. When the door is open, it turns on. You need to carefully monitor these devices, since their working condition is necessary and very important.

Control system repair

To repair this control system, you must do the following:

First of all, you need to remove the negative terminal from the battery.

Note: For ease of access to the control system, actions take place in the cabin, since this is where the display unit of the on-board control system of the VAZ 2110 is located.

Use a screwdriver to slightly pry off the clock in the car.
After removing them from the connector, you need to disconnect the fastening of the wires.
The clock is put aside.
The on-board control system display unit is removed through the free space from the clock.
All wire fastenings are disconnected.

After completing this work, it is necessary to repair this unit or replace it with a new one. This work is best left to specialists if the driver does not have skills in working with electronic equipment. You may have to purchase this unit. Its cost may fluctuate, but the price will remain within 1000 Russian rubles. After disconnecting this system and carrying out repairs/replacements, it is necessary to place all the parts in the same place in the opposite order. One of the problems may be an electrical wire that has become disconnected or burned out. In this case, it is necessary to analyze the signal received from the sensors over the entire distance of the wire using special instruments. This diagnosis must be carried out carefully. In any case, you can carry out the above work yourself. To do this, it is recommended to watch the corresponding replacement video and use the photo as a visual aid. You need to do everything with your own hands carefully, as required by the instructions, and then everything will work out perfectly. And why pay extra money to specialists if everything works out that way?

Removal and modification

Here's a quick look at the device and control panel icons. If for some reason she refuses, don’t immediately panic. Most often, the reason is the absence of contacts in some place in the wiring. But of course, if you wish, you can completely change or tune the panel.

For example, remove the cover and replace the light bulbs with brighter LEDs. Such a panel works brighter and the signals sent by the car will be more noticeable to the driver. If desired, you can install a more solid europanel, which will transform the interior.

To remove the panel you need:

Disconnect the “-” wire from the battery;
Remove the shield by unscrewing the screws;
Remove the fastenings of the control panel to the trim, remove the instrument cluster from the socket;
Remove the glass mask;
Disconnect the wires from the block;
Make changes to the instrument panel or replace it with a new one. Reassemble everything in reverse order.

The on-board control system of the VAZ 2110 is represented by several sensors and alarms that help eliminate deficiencies in the operation of the vehicle system. At one moment they may no longer be necessary, and at another they can save a person from unexpected breakdowns or even save a person’s life. Their serviceability must be constantly monitored. In order for the on-board display unit of the VAZ 2110 control system to always remain in working condition, you need to know the number of sensor data.
