Verfahren und Vorrichtung zur Montage eines Meßinstrumentenmoduls an ein Fahrzeug

摘要

A method is disclosed which is for assembling to an automotive instrument panel a meter module having incorporated therein meters, their control circuits. On an outer wall (9a) of a meter module (A) is provided a guide projection (10) extending in a fitting direction. On a ceiling wall (12a) of a meter-module receiving portion (12) of an instrument panel (P) is provided a guide recess (13) for receiving therein the guide projection (10). The meter module (A) is received into the meter-module receiving portion (12), with the guide projection (10) inserted in the guide recess (13), followed by coupling connectors (5a) on the part of the meter module (A) and connectors (16) attached to a wiring harness (15) together. The working efficiency during assembly of meter modules to a vehicle is improved, while contributing to a reduction in weight of meter modules.
