How is the instrument panel of the VAZ 2114?

VAZ 2114 is one of the first domestic cars on which the electronic combination of the instrument panel was used. "Pioneer" in this area was, of course, "ten", after which the electronics was used on all subsequent models of VAZ. And today's article we will devote to the device device panel 2114th "Lada".

Device and characteristic

The instrument panel VAZ 2114, in addition to the electronic combination, is also very special in its location of the illumination. And if in the first generation of "Samara" it was organized from the outside, which made it more difficult to access the dashboard during dismantling, then the indications on the 14th Lada were illuminated by lamps from the inside. But it's not all the features of this detail.

On cars VAZ 2114 the instrument panel includes up to 19 designations, the main ones of which, of course, are the tachometer, speedometer, coolant and fuel level sensors.

The gauge of temperature of a cooling liquid

And we begin the review of the notation on the left-hand side. Here the instrument panel on the VAZ 2114 has a pointer sensor for the temperature of the coolant. The red scale starts at 105 degrees Celsius and ends at 130. For a note, note that if the arrow of this sensor is in this range, stop the engine immediately and wait for it to cool. Otherwise, the boiling of the motor is inevitable.

Tachometer

Then we have a tachometer. This is the largest dial gauge on the dashboard after the speedometer. On its designations, we see that the normal engine speed should be in the region of 2 to 5.5 thousand rpm (idle speed does not count). Then comes the red scale. The entry of an arrow in this range is not as dangerous as in the case of a coolant temperature sensor. However, do not forget that the extremely high speed of the crankshaft entails not only increased fuel consumption, but also a significant load on all other engine parts.

Speedometer

The instrument panel VAZ 2114 is certainly equipped with a speedometer. This is the most important detail in the board. It is on her testimony that the driver's control over speed depends, and accordingly, safety, too. Therefore, it should display the readings with the maximum accuracy of up to 0.1 kilometers per hour. Instrument panel VAZ 2114 has a speedometer scale with a measurement value from 0 to 200 kilometers per hour. Interestingly, almost all domestic cars have speedometers that measure readings in excess of 170 km / h. For example, on GAZel, the speed peak is in the region of 180-200 kilometers per hour (depending on the year of manufacture). It's strange, of course, that a low-tonnage wagon is accelerated to these values, here at least a "hundred" from the mountain dial ...

Fuel level sensor

The last dial gauge measures the level of fuel in the fuel tank of the car. It is located on the standard scheme - on the right side of the dashboard. On the scale, there are only 3 designations: 0, ½ and 1. Of course, it does not measure the data with the same accuracy as the speedometer, however it is quite possible to know the approximate fuel balance.

So, we learned the features that distinguish the instrument panel VAZ 2114, and found out its device.
