An on-vehicle display devicedisplays a video around a vehicle and travel information of the vehicle on a single display unit. The on-vehicle display deviceincludes video display enable/disable input units, andinputting display enable/disable of the video around the vehicle, display modification unitsandmodifying the display size of each of a video display section and a travel information display section on the basis of the input video display enable/disable, and an input prediction unitpredicting input of display enable/disable of the video around the vehicle. Even when video display disable is input from a video display enable/disable input unit, if the input prediction unitpredicts input of video display enable, the display modification unitsanddo not modify the display size of each of the video display section and the travel information display section.

An energization control apparatus includes a control portion, a disconnection detecting portion, and a prohibiting portion. The control portion controls energization to a plurality of loads coupled in parallel. The disconnection detecting portion repeatedly or continuously determines whether a supply current to the plurality of loads is less than a threshold value when the control portion energizes the plurality of loads, and the disconnection detecting portion detects a disconnection of a part of the plurality of loads when the supply current is less than the threshold value. The prohibiting portion prohibits a disconnection detection by the disconnection detecting portion for a predetermined period since the control portion starts to energize the plurality of loads, and the prohibiting portion enables the disconnection detection by the disconnection detecting portion after the predetermined period elapses.

A meter system includes: an indicator including a pointer, a step motor, a stopper mechanism and a driving controller; and a flasher function unit including a flasher switch, a flasher and a flasher controller. The driving controller has: a stopper position detection operation executing element for executing a pointer moving away operation when a stopper position detection operation executing condition is satisfied and for executing a voltage detection type zero point stopper position detection operation when the executing condition is satisfied, and the flasher switch does not turn on and off, and a zero point return enforcement type zero point stopper position detection operation when the executing condition is satisfied, and the flasher switch turns on and off; a zero point setting element; and an applying element for applying the driving signal having the zero point.
