New instrument cluster for the Niva dashboard and its installation, instructions for rewiring

Good day, dear readers of the group!

The other day I came across different pinouts for the VAZ 2110-2115 devices, namely, according to the PP diagrams, one numbering of the block is indicated, and for the Niv one, another.

After which I started studying the diagrams and pinned out the numbering of the Nivopriborka. And it turned out that the difference is only in the numbers - the functional locations of the wires suitable for the white and red blocks have not changed, that is, replacing one device with another will not be a problem, but during repairs and finding the right wire you will have to rack your brains for an hour or two, checking car diagrams. That’s why I’ll post the pinout for everyone else, so as not to rack their brains in the future)

WHITE BLOCK 1 — oil pressure lamp 2 — empty 3 — battery warning lamp 4 — size warning lamp on the dash 5 — handbrake lamp 6 — coolant sensor, to the arrow 7 — + from the second fuse (NIVA) 8 — to the hazard warning light button (8 contact) 9 - + from the second fuse (NIVA) 10 - empty 11 - CHECK lamp 12 - tachometer signal wire 13 - minus

RED BLOCK 1 — brake fluid level 2 — left turn 3 — right turn 4 — power supply from the backlight control 5 — minus 6 — + from the second fuse (NIVA) 7 — DTV, to the tidy 8 — 50 ignition switch terminal 9 — empty 10 — high beam warning lamp 11 - fuel level 12 - speedometer signal wire

New instrument cluster for the Niva dashboard

I bought a used instrument cluster from 2115 VDO with two LCD displays. When I bought it, the seller foamed at the mouth to prove that I couldn’t install it on a carb car and that it was purely for the injector. I was given only two days to test its performance. I was able to check it on the table without even connecting it to the car. All that was needed was a power supply and some wires and a 2110 speed sensor.

I also bought the instrument cluster cover from 21214M. I thought I wouldn't find it. It turned out that they had been lying on the car market for a long time.

Well, the panel begins to take on a finished look. Tomorrow I plan to fully install the gearbox on the car. Accordingly, I will describe in detail what I did and how.

Installation of devices from VAZ 2115 in Niva

An excellent step-by-step guide to jumping wires is provided below. I did everything according to the description. I printed out the table and crossed out each step so as not to get confused.

On my own behalf, I’ll just add the pinout of the contacts of the instrument cluster 2115/2110 VDO and which wire needs to be transferred from the Niva block. B - white, K - red.

White block (X1)

1 - ground - K6 and lay a new ground wire of the speed sensor, contact No. 1 2 - Low-voltage tachometer input (not connected to the carburetor) - empty 3 - High-voltage tachometer input (connected to the carburetor) - K3 4 - “+” battery - A new wire is thrown to pin 30 of the ignition switch. 5 - To the coolant temperature sensor - B13 6 - Dimensions - B3 7 - Choke - weight control. 8 - CHECK ENGINE (+ or - CHECK ENGINE lamps, did not understand!) 9 - CHECK ENGINE (+ or - CHECK ENGINE lamps, did not understand!) 10 - + 12V - B4 11- To the parking brake switch - K8 12 - wire to excitation winding of the generator B12 or B6, depending on what kind of tidy was installed on the Niva. 13 - To the oil pressure warning lamp sensor - K12

Removing the instrument panel (combination), replacing the instrument panel illumination lamps and warning lamps

We remove the instrument cluster to replace it, as well as to replace indicator lamps and instrument backlight lamps, the speedometer cable, and to access the instrument panel mounting points.

Note. The instrument panel mounts may vary slightly depending on the year of manufacture and modification of the vehicle.

Using a Phillips screwdriver, unscrew the two self-tapping screws securing the instrument panel panel to the instrument panel itself.

Pull the upper part of the shield towards you, overcoming the resistance of the two latches.

Two latches (latches) are located in the upper corners of the shield.

Replacement.

To remove the DS, you need to place the car on a level surface. After this, it is best to disconnect the battery terminals to avoid errors in the BC.

Disconnect the wire terminals; to do this, press the plastic lock on the block. After this, use a wrench to unscrew the sensor from its seat. If you cannot unscrew it immediately, it is not recommended to use excessive force. You need to treat the threaded connection with WD-40, wait a few minutes and continue dismantling.

Installation of a new DS is carried out in the reverse order. When purchasing a new part, you need to pay attention to the external condition: the contacts must be treated with a sufficient amount of varnish, as this protects them from moisture. After completing the work, it is necessary to reset the on-board computer errors in order to remove the CHECK ENGINE error.

As for its location, look for the DS in the engine compartment in close proximity to the exhaust manifold. To be honest, the place where it is installed cannot be called ideal. While the car is running, the manifold heats up. The sensor wires rub against it, which over time leads to malfunctions and short circuits.

It doesn’t matter whether you have an injection car or a carburetor with a Europanel - the connection of the speed sensor to the instrument cluster is identical.

Replacing the VAZ speed sensor: step-by-step instructions:

1. Drive into the pit - it will be more convenient to work from below - and wait until the engine cools down.
2. Turn off the vehicle's power by removing the cable from the negative terminal of the battery. Do not close the hood after this, this will provide you with lighting.
3. Locate the speed sensor on the transmission. Clean it and everything near it with a rag to remove any dirt.
4. By pressing the spring clip, disconnect the wire block from the sensor.
5. Dismantle the sensor itself by unscrewing it counterclockwise - with your fingers or an open-end wrench to “22”.
6. Carefully, so as not to break anything, install a new part in place of the removed part. Connect the wire block to it and the procedure for replacing the speed sensor can be considered complete.

How to properly connect a new DS? It is important here that the device rod fits correctly into the fixing sleeve, otherwise rotation will not be transmitted to the sensor. If the sensor fits into the socket the first time, then everything is in its place, and if something prevents it from moving, then the rod did not fit into the bushing.

Dashboard Niva 21214

The instrument panel is present in any car. It combines a lot of different devices for monitoring the car. This part of the car is also sometimes called the dashboard. One important rule must be observed on any dashboard: it should not block the driver’s view and must provide full visibility of its instruments. On the VAZ 21214 car, all these rules are followed with precision.

Since this is an off-road vehicle, visibility here should be maximum, and information about the condition of the vehicle should be maximum.

Panel Contents

On the VAZ 21214, on which the injector is installed, there are a lot of different instruments on the panel, among them you can find:

• Speedometer and tachometer (which report the vehicle speed and crankshaft speed).
• Engine temperature indicator.
• Fuel level indicator in the gas tank.
• Turning light indicator.
• There are a lot of indicator lamps that indicate breakdowns: battery charge, parking brake, oil pressure in the engine lubrication system, “check engine” lamp, emergency lamp of the entire brake system.
• Odometer (counts the kilometers that the car has traveled since it left the assembly line).

Significance of the torpedo

The instrument panel includes all of the above elements and is located in such a way that they are always visible to the driver from any position. Experienced drivers note that it is necessary to carefully monitor the condition of all devices, since the condition of the entire VAZ 21214 car and the injector engine depends on their performance.

Dashboard Niva 21214

For example, the battery charge sensor can notify you in advance of a bad charge, and the car owner will understand that the belt driving the generator has become unusable. When the belt finally comes to an end, it will first begin to whistle bizarrely, and then completely burst.

If this happens on a long journey, the car will be immobilized. Also, the instrument panel has a seemingly simple VAZ 21214 engine temperature sensor, since it is imperative to monitor how the injector heats up. However, it is precisely this that can prevent engine overheating.

Using it, the driver can determine when the temperature began to rise sharply. If this happened while the car was running and driving for a long time, then this may be evidence that the coolant pump drive belt has broken.

By looking at the instrument panel in time, you can prevent sudden overheating of the engine.

Checking the sensors.

In order to check the DC, you need to have a multimeter, then follow a certain procedure:

1. Turn off the sensor.
2. We connect the red (positive) probe to the DC contact.
3. We connect the black (negative) probe to ground.
4. We fix a tube of suitable diameter onto the shaft in order to be able to rotate it.
5. We switch the multimeter switch to low voltage measurement mode.
6. It is necessary to rotate the shaft and observe the readings: as the speed increases, the readings on the multimeter display will increase. If the readings do not change, the sensor is faulty.

Another method does not require removing the sensor. To do this, you need to jack up one wheel so that it is at a distance from the ground and can rotate freely. After this, you need to connect a multimeter to the DC connectors. You need to rotate the wheel and observe the readings of the device. A change in voltage will also indicate performance.

Removing the panel

Sometimes it happens that it is necessary to remove the panel, often when it is necessary to replace some faulty device on the VAZ 21214, for example, a sensor for the condition of the injector. Doing it yourself is not that difficult. First we will have to unscrew and remove all the trim around the panel to get to the mounting bolts. The next step will be to unscrew the screws securing the heater arms. Next, you need to unscrew two nuts under the panel with a wrench; they are located in the steering wheel area. Now unscrew all the bolts around the instrument cluster. Now we simply find all the screws around the perimeter of the panel and forcefully remove it from the studs.

Installation of a dashboard (panel) from a foreign car on a VAZ 2110

There are many topics on the Internet about installing dashboards from foreign cars on VAZ 2101-07, 2109-99 and even Moskvich 2141. As a rule, the panels are borrowed from old BMW models (E36) or Opel Vectra, and they fit Russian cars with virtually no modifications. Installing a dashboard on a VAZ 2110 from a foreign car will not be easy; you will have to redo it, adjust it, trim it, so many say that it is easier to buy a new car. “The eyes are afraid, but the hands are doing”, here is one good example of such an installation, when a panel from a Volkswagen Passat (B5), which was produced from 1996 to 2005, was installed on the “ten”. The panel was received without covers, a glove compartment, plastic sides, a light control module and other things that had to be purchased later. It’s worth noting right away that the process of replacing the dashboard itself will take a lot of time. If you can remove the original panel of the “tens” in a working day (instructions), then installing a panel from a foreign car will take several times more time and effort, and this is primarily due to adjustment, local modifications, etc. So, the Volkswagen torpedo underwent a little trimming and adjustment, after which it was in the right place. The next stage is finishing the stove. Here it was decided to use the Finnish dignity. a unit that served as air ducts to the left and right parts of the dashboard. xn--2111-43da1a8c.xn--p1ai
