2. Check for continuity between the BLK terminal and the body ground.
There should be continuity. If there is no continuity, check for:
— An open in the BLk wire.
— Poor ground (G101) If there is continuity, go to step 3.
3. Check for vortage between the BLK/YEL terminal and the body ground with the ignition switch ON.
There should be battery voltage. If there is no voltage, check for an open in the
BLK/YEL wire. If there is battery voltage, go to step 4.
4. Check for voltage between the YEL/RED terminal and

bod
y
ground with the ignition switch ON.

There should be approximately 5 V.
If there is no voltage, check for:
terminal of the A connector (see page 23-121). If there are approximately 5 V, go to step 5.
5. If all continuity and voltage tests are normal, but the speedometer and the odo/trip meter do not operate,
replace the speed sensor.
Replacement

1. Disconnect the 3-P connector from the speed sensor.
2. Remove the mounting bolts and the speed sensor,
then take out the speed sensor assembly.

if it has an open circuit or damaged wiring. After installation of the gauge assembly, recheck the
operation of the SRS indicator light.
Remove the dashboard lower cover, center panel and in-

strument panel. Disconnect the 8-connector (30-P) from

the gauge assembly. (See page 23-126)

Make the following input tests at the connector termi-

nals. If all tests prove OK, yet the indicator stilt fails to
work, replace the safety indicator.
