November 27, 2015 Lada.Online 114 319 32
The Vesta instrument cluster has a built-in trip computer (MK), which has a number of useful functions that are not found in the on-board computers (BC) of many cars (including those of competitors). For example, you can find out the voltage of the on-board network or the speed limiter. Read the instructions for using the bookmaker.

Setting the clock on the Lada Vesta on-board computer

In order to enter the clock setting mode, you need to use the top button of the on-board computer (), by long pressing this key you will get to the mode you need, how can you determine that you are already there? This is very simple, if you are on the right track, then the on-board computer should leave on its display only the numbers responsible for the current time, and one of these numbers (the first from the left) will flicker continuously. Each time digit is adjusted separately and does not depend on each other; in order to adjust the first digit, use the on-board computer buttons (,↓) with short presses. As soon as you set the first digit, move on to the next one; this can be done by long pressing the top button of the on-board computer (). Do these steps with each digit, then leave the time setting mode.

Parameters of the standard Lada Vesta onboarder

Depending on the model, the Lada Vesta on-board computer can perform a wide variety of functions and display relevant information on the screen display. In the standard version, the monitor displays:

total vehicle mileage in kilometers;
distance in kilometers traveled by the car in one trip;
Digital Watch;
travel time: hours, minutes;
speed in kilometers per hour;
recommendations for gear shifting;
voltage in the on-board network in volts;
current fuel consumption in liters per 100 kilometers;
fuel consumption per trip in liters per 100 kilometers;
fuel costs per trip in liters;
indicator of how many kilometers of fuel remain;
number of the included gear;
speed limit indicator;
outside air temperature.

The display can also display other useful indicators that make driving much easier. For example, data from the parking sensors of the Lada Vesta, which ensures reliable parking of the car by generating sound and light signals. On-board computers are installed on the entire line of Lada cross, station wagon and on all luxury AvtoVAZ models.

Standard electronic devices also work successfully with additional equipment, which can be installed either with your own hands or at service stations. For example, the standard cruise control on the Lada Vesta “gets along” comfortably with the additional on-board computer.

The most modern BC models have extensive functions: they are integrated with a satellite navigation system, with their help you can watch TV, listen to DVDs, and connect to the Internet.

Direct time setting

The time is set according to this scheme.

You need to enter edit mode . To do this, you need to press and hold the “up” arrow for about three seconds. At this moment, only the numbers “0.0 km” in the second line from the left of the display will start flashing on the screen. While in edit mode, you need to press the same arrow once. The clock indicator on the screen will blink, for example, “08:35”.

You will need to hold down the top key again for a few seconds to start changing the clock.

Only the first digit “0” from “08:35” will begin to pulsate. Now you can use the arrows to change the readings of tens, of which we only have two. To go to the hour units, hold down the “up” button again for a couple of seconds, after which “8” will begin to pulsate. Using the joystick we set the numbers we need from “0” to “9”.

Additional functions

On-board computer The BC has a secret menu with which you can adjust the sound of the turn signal clicks. To do this, you need to hold down both buttons at the same time. We get to the additional menu.

We turn on the hazard warning lights and adjust the click sound using the up and down buttons. By briefly pressing both buttons, you can change the tone of the clicks.

Description of functions

A review of the Lada Vesta on-board computer shows which parameters are displayed on the display or front panel display. This makes the life of a Lada car enthusiast much easier. On Vesta, the standard on-board computer shows the following information, in addition to error codes:

Maintenance regulations for Lada Vesta: features

Each car owner operates his car at his own individual rhythm, so it is impossible to determine a single annual mileage rate for all drivers. AvtoVAZ has set the frequency of maintenance of its cars in such a way as to take into account the interests of both those who spend most of their lives behind the wheel and those who get into the car a couple of times a week.

Therefore, the moment when it is time to go to the service for the next maintenance of the Lada Vesta was established in two ways:

every 15 thousand kilometers;
no later than 12 months after the previous repair.

You need to base it on what happens first.

How to prevent errors on Lada Vesta

How to set up a pioneer radio in a car

There are often cases when, after diagnosing and inspecting the car, technicians do not find significant problems in the equipment that could cause errors. With proper prevention and care of the machine, such situations do not arise.

Experienced professionals recommend performing certain actions while operating the vehicle.

Avoid deep discharge of the battery. All on-board equipment, including sensitive sensors, react extremely sharply to voltage sags within networks, which can cause their failure or incorrect operation. You should also be careful about the operation of the generator - strong surges also negatively affect the durability of the equipment.
Once a year, diagnose the condition of all wires and structural elements. When operating a car, all electrical components are exposed to temperature changes, moisture, and dirt. External factors greatly damage the cable braid, which leads to its drying out and cracking. Subsequently, the insulation is broken, leading to short circuits and errors.
Periodically check the tightness of the connections and the condition of the terminal blocks. During active driving, the plastic clamps are subject to strong vibration - this often causes contact failure and loss of signal from the sensor.

Also, some experts recommend treating all connections with a special oil - this will prevent moisture from entering the terminals and oxidizing them, which also negatively affects the passage of the signal to the on-board computer. At the same time, the cost of such lubricants is relatively low, which allows you to take care of your car quite economically.

Deactivating daytime running lights

Daytime running lights on the Lada Vesta turn on automatically - you just need to turn the ignition switch to two extreme positions. DRLs were invented in order to increase traffic safety on the road, but we must admit that even, for example, at night they shine quite brightly and are sometimes completely inappropriate.

An example of this is an alarm system with auto start. If the owner activates this mode, then at night those around him will already know that the car’s engine is running - this increases the risk of vandalism or even theft. Therefore, some owners of domestic compact cars decided to turn off the DRLs.

This is done very simply. You just need to set the steering column lever to an intermediate position between 0 and the “dimensions” label. That's it, daytime running lights will not work for us when the ignition is activated.

How to remove the dashboard of Lada Vesta

A new instrument panel can be purchased for 8,000 rubles and mounted on the dashboard.

Removing the dashboard is not easy, it is quite a responsible task. How does this procedure happen? First you need to remove the negative terminal of the battery. Next, unscrew the 2 bolts on the top of the car console using T20 sockets. After this, the latches will make a clicking sound, and you can pull the instrument panel towards you. All fastening screws will need to be unscrewed, and then the device will need to be disconnected from all wires.

To install the device, you need to do everything in the opposite direction without changing the connection diagram.

What has changed in the new dashboard of Lada Vesta

The updated dashboard of the Lada Vesta will feature the following improvements: larger fonts, the appearance of daytime lighting for the instruments and a change in the backlight color of the scales to orange.

The first changes will affect cars for export. Updated versions of Vesta will arrive on the Russian market a little later.

Changed instrument lighting helped solve the problem of reading readings. Now it has a more solid and presentable appearance.

The functionality of the new dashboard has also changed and acquired useful properties: sound has been added, the alarm sound has increased, automatic time synchronization with the satellite has been configured, the driver can only adjust the time zone. There are new indicators that warn of seat belts and low tire pressure.

To date, there is no information about the implementation of the device's lighting brightness.
