They need to represent the dashboard faithfully.
Not all of the gauges work in the game version of the truck though.

my explanations will follow after the double slashes ("//")

======================ATS GAUGE
Peterbilt389
A1 battery(9-18 volts) //Main Battery volatage/current
A2 temperature coolant (100-300F) // Temperature of the Cooling fluid - mostly likely to be water
A3 lubricant oil pressure (0-100) // oil
B1 FUEL
B2 BRAKE AIR (0-50-150) // Air pressure for service brakes (main brakes while driving)
B3 SEC BRAKE AIR (0-50-150) // secondary air = air capacitor brake air or trailer brakes
C1 ??? (0-300) // Front axle temperature
C2 BRAKE pressure (0-20?) //Pressure in PSI (Pascal per Square Inch) which the brakes are serving currently
C3 AMPS (-150to 150) // Serving Power of the battery
D TRLR SUPPLY // Air pressure in the trailer air system
E general air //idk
F (E-1/2-F) DEF // Def fuel, american variant of AdBlue

G1 trans temp(150-300)?? // Transmission temperature
G2 ??? (0-100)
G3 ???(0-40)

//ingame the following 3 dashes are there
G1 Suspension Load (Front) // How much pressure there is on the air system of the suspension system on your front axle
G2 rear axle tyre temperature
G3 Suspension load rear axle(s) // like G1 only for the rear axles

engine temp 100-300
trans temp 100-300
MPG 0?-4.7? // fuel efficiency (aka gauges) = how far can I drive with one gallon (Miles Per Gallon) (1 Gallon ~4.5Litres)
DEF // see above
torque (0-100) MANIFOLD means? // how much of the max torque you are using. EG your ening has 2500Nm max torque at 1400rpm and you are at 1600 rpm with aprox2280 Nm, then you have around 85, becaue oyu are using 85% of your maximal torque

Kenworth W900=========
A1=battery
A2= battery AMPS
B1=coolant ? // same as p389 A2
B2=oil
C1=brake air
C2=SEC BRAKE AIR // see P389 above
D1= // Suspension load
D2=brake pressure
E1=FUEL
E2= // Transimission Temperature
F1=CLOCK
F2=OIL TEMP? // same as p389 a3

THANKS,
I KNOW THEM MORE NOW,
-150 AMPS MEANS?
0 FUEL FILTER MEANS?
20 FUEL FILTER ?

SEEMS SUSP LOAD IS FOR TRAILER?
BECOMES 0 WHEN DECOUPLING

[RayRay5]

Amps = Ampere = charge flow per second (for more see wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ampere)

0 FUEL FILTER MEANS?
20 FUEL FILTER ?
That'S the flow pressure through the fuel filters https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_filter

And Suspension load is how much pressure there is on your suspension.
If you have a heavy trailer, you are most likely to have high suspension load. With a light trailer you will have low suspension load and with no trailer you will have no suspension load

[Shredder]

You know this is a game right? Look around. Is the road network super accurate? This type of accuracy isn't needed.

[chliju1588]

FIRST AXLE=STEER WHEEL, 2ND AXLE=MIDLIFT IF MIDLIFT , 3RD AXLE, 4TH AXLE+5TH AXLE=TRAILER,

G1 Suspension Load (Front) // How much pressure there is on the air system of the suspension system on your front axle=IS THIS 4TH AXLE?

G2 rear axle tyre temperature=3RD AXLE?

G3 Suspension load rear axle(s) // like G1 only for the rear axles= IS THIS 5TH AXLE?

FRONT AXLE TEMP= IS THIS FIRST OR 2ND AXLE TYRES TEMP?


THANKS

Thanks for posting that!

I'm unfamiliar with trucks in real life. Facinated by them but don't really know anything about them. Can you explain this gauge to me? The only thing I know from the video since hard to read those small letters in-game is it stands for Diesel Exhaust Fluid. The only thing I notice is when I stop to fuel up my truck, it fills this up as well. Thanks.

*I just googled it and have a pretty good idea now....

[ravensview]

But most of the gauges are unreadable, at least in my Kenworth W900. So what's the point?

[Birckablock]

I actually find the gauges easily readable. The zoom function helps with lower end systems. Perhaps try toying with your graphics settings. Changing the scaling is what made mine go from blurry to clear.

Diesel Exhaust Fluid is to help with emissions.

Here are a couple vids by truckers that cover most of the gauges:

There's a zoom?? I'd completely forgot about that. I'll bind it to a key on my mouse I think. And I may try driving without a wheel so I can see the dash better.
Console command is uset r_steering_wheel 0
