TESTING
FUEL GAUGE SENDING UNIT
Capri
Remove rear seat cushion. Disconnect fuel pump/fuel gauge sending unit electrical connector at access cover. Turn ignition on. Fuel gauge
should read empty. Using a jumper wire, connect Yellow fuel gauge wire of vehicle harness connector to ground. Fuel gauge should read full.
If fuel gauge operates as specified, replace fuel gauge sending unit.
Festiva
Remove fuel gauge sending unit from tank. See FUEL SENDING UNIT under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. Connect an ohmmeter and
check sending unit resistance as indicated in FUEL GAUGE SENDING UNIT RESISTANCE (FESTIVA)
table. Replace sending unit if
resistance is drastically different than specification.
FUEL GAUGE SENDING UNIT RESISTANCE (FESTIVA)
OIL PRESSURE GAUGE (CAPRI)
1. Remove electrical connector from oil pressure sending unit located on right side of engine block. Turn ignition switch on. Oil pressure
gauge should read low. Install a jumper wire between Yellow/Red wire of oil pressure sending unit vehicle harness connector and
ground. Oil pressure gauge should read high.
2. If oil pressure gauge operates as specified, replace sending unit. If gauge does not operate as specified, check instrument panel power
and ground circuits.
OIL PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT (FESTIVA)
Light Stays On With Engine Running
1. Turn ignition on (DO NOT start engine). Disconnect Yellow/Red wire from oil pressure switch connector. Light should go off.
2. If light stays on, repair short in Yellow/Red wire between oil indicator light and oil pressure switch. Reconnect wire to switch. Light
should be on with ignition on. If light does not go off when engine is started, check switch or engine for low oil pressure.
Oil Light Will Not Go On With Ignition On
1. Ground Yellow/Red wire at instrument panel connector. If light goes on, repair Yellow/Red wire between oil pressure switch and
indicator light or replace defective oil pressure switch.
2. If light does not illuminate, check bulb or check instrument panel ground circuit.
TEMPERATURE GAUGE (CAPRI)
1. Remove electrical connector from temperature sending unit located at front of cylinder head. Connect one lead of Gauge System Tester
(021-00055) to connector and other tester lead to ground. Set tester to 18 ohms, turn ignition switch on and observe temperature gauge.
Gauge should read 250°F.
2. Turn tester to 60 ohms. Gauge should read 175°F. Turn tester to 223 ohms. Gauge should read 100°F. If all readings are within twice
the needle width of correct reading, gauge is functioning properly. If readings are not as specified, replace gauge.
TEMPERATURE GAUGE (FESTIVA)
See TROUBLE SHOOTING for possible service areas.
TEMPERATURE SENDING UNIT (CAPRI)
Remove sending unit from engine and place in container of water. Heat water to 176°F (80°C). Measure resistance between sending unit
connector and case. Resistance should be 49.3-57.7 ohms. If resistance is not as specified, replace sending unit. NOTE:Inspect fuel tank for distortion or dam age. If distorted or dam aged, repair or replace tank before testing.

DEFOGGER - REAR WINDOW
1991 ACCESSORIES & SAFET Y EQUIPMENT Rear Window Defoggers - Rear Window
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION
The rear window defogger consists of an electrical grid on rear window glass. The rear window defogger switch is located in the instrument
cluster bezel. On Capri, the switch is a push type and includes a small indicator light in the switch to indicate when rear defogger is on. On
Festiva, the switch is a rocker type and includes a small indicator light in instrument cluster to indicate when rear defogger is on.
On Capri, the defogger circuit includes a 10-amp METER fuse which receives battery power from ignition switch and a 20-amp HTD B-
LIGHT fuse which has battery power at all times. The wire from the METER fuse goes to the rear defogger switch and then to the relay. The
wire from the HTD B-LIGHT fuse goes to the rear defogger relay and then to the grid. See Fig. 1
.

On Festiva, the defogger circuit includes a 15-amp DEFOG fuse which receives battery power from ignition switch. The wire from the fuse
goes to the rear defogger switch and then to the grid. The defogger circuit does not contain a relay. See Fig. 2

INDICATOR LIGHT DOES NOT WORK BUT DEFOGGER DOES WORK
Open circuit from rear defogger switch to instrument panel (Festiva). Defective light bulb. Defective flexible circuit on instrument cluster.
TESTING
SYSTEM TESTING
1. Ensure all in-line fuses or circuit breakers are okay. Turn ignition and control switches to ON position. Glass should feel warm after a
few min u t es.
2. If glass is not warm, use a test light or voltmeter to check for battery voltage at grid feed wire. If voltage is not correct, check wiring
harness, control switch and flexible circuit on instrument cluster. See FILAMENT TESTING.
REAR DEFOGGER SWITCH TESTING
Capri
Remove rear defogger switch. Using an ohmmeter, ensure continuity exists between terminals listed in table at specified switch positions. If
switch does not test as specified, replace rear defogger switch. See REAR DEFOGGER SWITCH CONTINUITY (CAPRI) table.

exist when relay is energized. When relay is de-energized, continuity should not exist.
FILAMENT TESTING
1. To locate breaks in grid wire filaments, attach a voltmeter to middle portion of each filament. Attach other meter probe to vertical
section of window grid.
2. If a grid is broken, meter will register either zero volt or battery voltage, depending on if grid is broken between or outside test leads. If
wire is not broken, meter will register about one half of battery voltage. To locate break, move probe along wire until meter needle
mo ves ab ru p t l y.

1990-92 ACCESSORIES & EQUIPMENT
Power Mirrors - Festiva
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION
The power outside rearview mirrors are an aerodynamic sail-mount design. See Fig. 1 . The mirror base is secured to the lower front corner of
the window frame. The screws attaching the base to the door and the wiring connector are concealed behind a trim cover which is also
attached to the window frame.
The power outside rearview mirrors are operated by a switch located to the left of the steering column just below the air discharge register. See
Fig. 1
. The switch housing actually contains two separate switch assemblies. The outer perimeter switch controls the up/down and the
inboard/outboard position of the mirrors. The center toggle switch determines which mirror is connected to the perimeter switch. When the
toggle is positioned to the left mirror, the left mirror will respond to the perimeter switch. The right mirror responds when the toggle is
positioned to the right.
Each mirror contains two electric motors -- one for tilting the mirror up or down and another for moving the mirror inboard or outboard. See
Fig. 1
. Each motor drives a gear train that includes a worm gear, a reduction gearset, and a threaded attaching lug. Rotation of the gear train
threads the attaching lug in or out of the final gear in the train. As the lug moves in the gear, it pushes or pulls the mirror into a new position.
A spring clip installed over the lug allows it to ratchet when it reaches the end of its travel.
