The VAZ 2114 dashboard is the main information block, which displays data on the current functional state of the car. It is located on the dashboard, directly in front of the driver's seat.
Tidying VAZ 2114, 2113,2115
The panel itself contains three types of elements:
- Indicator lights indicating the amount of consumables required for the operation of the car - gasoline, oil, brake fluid, etc.;
- Speedometer and tachometer;
- A control element for switching the speedometer operating mode.
Also, the concept of “instrument cluster” usually includes levers for turning on turn signals, buttons for controlling headlights, heater, and other communications of the car.
The VAZ 2114 dashboard diagram looks like this:
Instrument panel (diagram)
From this article you will learn the designation of the icons on the dashboard of the VAZ 2114, the reasons for the indicators to light up, as well as the measures that need to be taken to eliminate the problems that have arisen.
Basic devices and their interpretation
Of course, the most significant instruments on the dashboard are:
- Speedometer;
- Tachometer;
- Coolant temperature indicator;
- Fuel level indicator in the tank.
Instrument cluster
Let's study them in more detail.
- Speedometer. The VAZ 2114 provides for the installation of an induction speedometer, which receives speed data thanks to a sensor located on the gearbox. The speedometer shows the current speed of the vehicle. The scale is divided from 0 to 200 kilometers per hour in increments of 10 kilometers per hour. Such devices have an error of at least 5 kilometers per hour. At the bottom center of the speedometer is a two-line display. She reports the current mileage, and the second one reports the total mileage completed on this car.
- Tachometer. It is located to the left of the speedometer. The tachometer is an electronic device that receives signals from the on-board computer and reflects the current crankshaft speed. The scale is divided into 5 units. Digitization - every 10 scale units. The maximum tachometer scale is 80. Multiplying this number by 100, we get the number of revolutions. For example, if the scale is 40, then the crankshaft rotates 4000 rpm. The range from 55 to 60 has red shading, and 80 is completely red. These are critical speeds, when the arrow reaches which the engine operates under extreme loads and may fail. At the bottom of the tachometer in the middle the time and air temperature are displayed.
- Coolant temperature indicator. The coolant temperature should be constantly monitored, because for this purpose there is a corresponding indicator on the dashboard. It is located to the left of the tachometer and reports the current coolant temperature. The data comes from the corresponding sensor. The division is made in 20 degree increments. Digitization starts at 50, then goes to 90 and 130. The danger zone begins at 105 degrees. If the arrow is in this zone, the engine must be stopped immediately, otherwise overheating and breakdown will occur.
- Fuel level indicator. It is located to the right of the speedometer. The scale shows numbers and images that mean: 0 - the tank is empty;
- 1/2 - the tank is half full;
- tank full;
- Image of a gas station at the top - the tank is filled to its maximum capacity;
- Image of a gas station at the bottom right with orange backlight - less than 6 liters of fuel left in the tank.
Buttons and their designation
Now we move directly to the buttons, which also have their rightful place on the dashboard of the VAZ 2114.
- The button at the bottom right of the speedometer allows you to switch the temperature and time on the digital display. If you press it for 5 seconds while the car is stationary, the current mileage data will be reset.
- Double button with two switches. The button with two headlights turns on the headlights, and the button with one headlight turns on the low beam.
- A button with angled strokes and a headlight turns on the front fog lights.
- The button with horizontal strokes turns on the rear fog lights.
- The button with a rectangle turns on the heated rear window.
In fact, it’s not difficult to understand all the buttons, indicators and pointers. Our description of the VAZ 2114 dashboard buttons will help you figure this out. But it’s best to get into the car with the instructions and clearly see everything.
Never ignore dashboard messages. If you respond in a timely manner to a signal about an empty tank, for example, you will be able to turn into a gas station on time and not stall in the middle of the road.
Indicator paws
The symbols on the VAZ 2114 dashboard are made in accordance with the requirements and standards. They are unified so that they are understandable to all drivers. Indicator designations are located at the bottom of the shield.

As can be seen from the description, the location of certain connectors on the instrument panels is slightly different. When replacing the device with a more modern one, or vice versa, the motorist may experience some connection difficulties. Therefore, if you have no experience in auto electrics, it is better to entrust such tuning to specialists.
Pinout
The VAZ 2114 instrument panel pinout shows the correct order of connecting the wires of measuring and information devices, in other words, this is the electronic circuit of the instrument panel. You will need it if you want to make any changes to the standard panel configuration or carry out repairs and replacement of parts. For each car model and specific dashboard, the diagram will be slightly different; for example, the diagram on the VAZ 2115 has significant differences from the 2114 model.
The circuit consists of 26 connections, which are made according to an electronic circuit. Usually the diagram should come with the car manual. It’s not a problem to get a description of her work now.
There are two pads inside the panel - one red and one white. The devices will be connected to them in a certain sequence.
There is nothing complicated in the pinout if the user has basic knowledge of the rules for connecting wires - plus to plus, minus to minus. If you have a diagram of the instrument panel on hand, you can start tuning individual devices or the entire set so that the instrument panel of the 2114 model becomes more visually pleasing.
Description of the buttons on the instrument panel of the VAZ 2114
When purchasing a new or used car, the first thing the owner must do is figure out exactly how to operate the car and all its systems. To do this, you should know the pinout of the instrument panel on the VAZ 2114, since this is the car we are talking about today.
Dashboard
We bring to your attention a detailed description of the buttons on the VAZ 2114 dashboard, icons, lights and other devices and indicators.
INDICATOR BUGS
Also, the instrument panel on the VAZ 2114 has a block of light indicators, which includes the following icons:
Indicators
Let's look at the designation of the icons on the instrument panel in more detail:
- An indicator that displays information about the current engine oil level. When the amount of lubricating fluid is critically low, the light turns orange. Oil must be added immediately after this indicator becomes active;
- This indicator indicates a low amount of working fluid in the windshield washer reservoir. The tank is designed for 5 liters of liquid, the indicator turns on when its quantity drops below 1 liter;
- Fluid quantity sensor in the engine cooling system. One of the most important indicators that needs to be closely monitored;
- Indicates the presence of unlocked doors. Lights up red;
- An indicator that lights up if the dimensions or brake lights are out of order. The active indicator color is red;
- A light that lights up in case of critical wear of the brake pads (1.5 mm). Lights up from the moment you first press the brakes until the car is turned off;
- An indicator indicating that the driver is not wearing seat belts.
An exclamation mark on the instrument panel of a VAZ 2114 can light up in two cases: when the car’s starter is turned on, and when the brake fluid level is low. As a rule, the reason is in the second option.
To eliminate the problem, completely fill the tank and check the contacts of the TZ level sensor, which are located on the container lid, for oxidation.
If the engine icon on the panel is on, it means something is wrong with the power unit of the fourteenth. There are many reasons why the Check Engine light comes on; it often stays on even when there are no visible faults. It is best to go to a service station for diagnostics, this way you will be protected from possible problems.
Tuning the dashboard of Lada 2114
To make their car distinctive, many motorists resort to tuning.
Although this is a troublesome task, it is worth it. Everyone strives to make the salon spectacular and cozy. The dashboard is a favorite place for tuning.
Backlight tuning
To make the panel devices look stylish and modern, they can be modernized. Let's look at how backlight tuning is done.
You can improve the appearance of a vehicle yourself, since the process is not at all complicated.
Everything you need for tuning:
- panel disassembly;
- removing the shield;
- tune the necessary parts;
- put in place.
The first step is to replace regular yellow light bulbs with bright LEDs. Chinese diodes are cheaper, but they will not last long. To ensure that the light comes directly from the diodes, heat shrink is put on them, and the arrows will be clearly visible even in the dark.
The diode wires are connected to the backlight from the machine stove. To change the color of the arrows, a red diode is placed under each arrow. The light from the arrows will acquire a rich, bright red color, which will noticeably update the panel.
Blue light bulbs are popular. The central panel is also subject to tuning, respect is guaranteed. The glow becomes soft and irritates the eyes when driving.
Europanel
To give a modern aesthetic look, you can install a europanel. The material of the panel is soft, rich, and less noisy. The original warning lamps and odometer make the panel modern and fashionable. It is equipped with many signal sensors. A special feature of the Europanel are sensor signals and airbags.
White-blue LEDs also look beautiful. Typically, up to 50 LEDs are needed for tuning. If the glow of the diodes is very bright, then you can try to adjust it. Some VAZ components have this capability.
You can also tint the instrument panel, which will also look great. Improving the panel offers ample opportunities for creativity among car enthusiasts and designers. As a tuning option, you can install a start button, which will give the interior a distinctive style and modernity.
By the way, if the modernization will be carried out with your own hands, in order to avoid problems with the traffic police, you need to write a statement about the planned changes in the design of the car and wait for permission from the traffic police. After making changes, you need to undergo a technical inspection, where appropriate changes will be made to the registration documents.

Main information devices
The instrument panels of the VAZ 2114 show information about the status of important operating components of the car. The main part is an information block with two round scales and several smaller indicators.
- The speedometer is the right round scale on the panel with marks from 0 to 200 km/h, which shows the speed of the car. The device sensor is located in the transmission assembly and is connected to the display in the cabin. Below the scale there is a window that displays the vehicle's mileage.
- The indicator to the right of the speedometer shows the level of gasoline in the tank. It has three main divisions - 1, ½ and 0. One - the tank is full, zero - empty. When the fuel is running low, the orange fuel icon lights up.
- The tachometer is the second large round scale, which is located on the left of the panel. Displays information about the crankshaft rotation speed - engine operation. Its norm is 3500-5500 rpm, everything beyond that is a critical value at which breakdowns of the engine unit occur. The indicator below the scale displays the air temperature around the engine.
- The small indicator to the left of the tachometer is the cooling fluid temperature sensor. Values from 50 to 130°C, where a value of 105°C and above indicates possible engine overheating.
