Maintenance Required Lamp/Indicator: Service and Repair



Service interval indicator




1. Information field - 'TIME INSPECTION'
2. Information arrow
3. Information field - 'OIL SERVICE'
4. Information field - 'INSPECTION'

The service interval indicator is located adjacent to the LCD and uses the odometer LCD to show distance to next service and date to next service. The indicator displays 'OIL SERVICE' or 'INSPECTION' to inform the driver of the type of service due.

The service interval indicator is controlled by one of the microprocessors and software in the instrument pack and the data stored in the EEPROM. The service interval is calculated on fuel consumption which represents the loads placed on the engine more accurately than distance travelled. Therefore, a vehicle which is driven aggressively will require a service earlier than a vehicle which is driven economically.

The service interval data is displayed in the odometer for 5 seconds, every time the ignition is switched on.




1. Distance display
2. Message centre LCD


When the ignition is switched on, the remaining distance to service is displayed for 5 seconds in the odometer LCD. Simultaneously, the next service type will also be displayed in the service interval indicator.

A minus sign preceding the remaining distance indicates that the service interval has been exceeded and the distance by which it is overdue.





1. Date display
2. Message centre LCD


When the remaining distance is displayed, a second press of the instrument pack, LH button, within the 5 second display period, illuminates the 'TIME INSPECTION' clock symbol for an additional 5 seconds. The distance to service information displayed in the odometer LCD changes to the due date of the service by showing the month and year.

A decimal point is positioned between the month and the year. In the above example, the year is 2003 and the month is December.

If the LH instrument pack button is pressed again, within the 5 second period, the odometer LCD changes to the distance remaining.


SII Reset Procedure

The SII can be reset with the following procedure using the instrument pack buttons.

NOTE: The distances and dates shown are examples only and not necessarily representative of actual messages displayed.

NOTE: After a reset, the SII cannot be reset again until the instrument pack registers the vehicle has used 20% of the fuel required to travel the nominal distance to the next service. The fuel required to travel the nominal distance is stored in the instrument pack EEPROM, and varies with engine type:
V8 - 4075 litres (1075 US gallons) for a nominal distance of 25000 km (15625 miles).
Td6 - 1232, 1680 or 2464 litres (325, 444 or 651 US gallons) for a nominal distance of 11000, 15000 or 22000 km (6875, 9375 or 13750 miles) respectively.
