ASR dash light?
 

i was picking apart a guage cluster today when i noticed the little car in the top left corner (where the FWD and AT OIL TEMP light come on) has another indicator bulb that says ASR, anyone know what it means and what turns it on?

Mine says "4WS"

dang, yours is a teaser. mine definately says ASR, check it out.Attachment 10436

Could mean "Anti-slip regulation", which is a type of electronic traction control to prevent wheelspin. Never heard of that being fitted to an SVX though. Why would you need it when you have 4WD and a limited slip diff.

do all clusters have this light?

I had mine out 2 days ago and didn't notice it. the only light i know we have that doesn't light up is the econ light.

I just found an article that says the prototype SVX had "ASR Traction Control".

would there be a way to wire this to light up when the SVX goes 50/50 f/b awd?

Not easily, you'd have to have a means of reading frequency, Then determine exactly what frequency 50/50 is. Once you overcome that, it's as simple as a relay to turn on the light.
Like a lot of good ideas, it's not impossible, just difficult.

well, that explains it. i always wondered why that light comes on sometimes when it's rainy!......i wish:rolleyes:
but i wonder, there must be a few out there with it if they went out and put it on the guage cluster.

noticed one on mine to.it's never come on and the only way to see it is by shining a light directly at the gauge.
