Fuel Gauge
Gauge/Sending Unit Test
!@ Do not smoke while working on tho fuel
system. Keep open tlame away trom your wotk atea.
NOTE: Refer to page 23-133 for the fuel gauge system
circuit.
'1. Check the No. 25 (7.5 A) fuse in the under-dash fuse/
relay box before testing.
2. Remove the access panel from the floor.
ACCESS PANEL
Disconnect the 3P connector from the fuel gauge
sending unit.
Connect the voltmeter positive probe to the No. 2
terminal and the negative probe to the No. I termi-
nal, then turn the ignition switch ON (ll).
There should be between 5 and 8 V.
. lf the voltage is as specified, go to step 5.
. lf the voltage is not as specified. check for:- an open in the YEUBLK or BLK wire.- poor ground (G552).
Turn the ignition switch OFF.
Attach a jumper wire between the No. 1 and No. 2
terminals, then turn the ignition switch ON (ll).
)\
23-142
1.Check that the pointer of the fuel gauge starts mov-
ing toward the "F" mark.
CAUTION: Turn the ignition switch OFF before thepoinier reaches "F" on ihe gauge dial. Failure to do
so may damage the fuel gauge.
NOTE: The fuel gauge is a bobbin (cross-coil) type,
hence the fuel level is continuously indicated even
when the ignition switch is OFF, and the pointer
moves more slowly than that of a bimetaltype.
. lf the pointer of the fuel gauge does not move at
all, replace the gauge.
. lf the gauge is OK. inspect the fuel gauge send-
ing unit.
Remove the fuel gauge sending unit as shown.

Low Fuel Indicator Light Test
NOTE: For the low fuel indicator circuit diagram, refer to
the gauge assembly circuit diagram (see page 23'2311.
1. Check the No. 25 (7 5 A) luse in the driver's under
dash fuse/relay box before testing
2. Park the vehicle on level ground.
3.
4.
Drain the luel into an approved container. Reinstall
the fueltank drain bolt with a new washer.
Add less than 4L (1 1 U.S Gal, 0.9 lmp Gal) of fuel,
and turn the ignition switch ON (ll). The low fuel
indicator light should come on within four minutes'
. lf the light comes on within four minutes, go to
step 8.
. lf the light does not come on within four min-
utes, go to step 5.
Remove the access panel lrom the Iloor'
Turn the ignition switch OFF, then disconnect the
fuel tank sending unit 3P connector.
Connect the fuel tank sending unit 3P terminals No'
1 and No. 3 with a jumPer wire
. lf the light comes on, replace the fuel gauge
sending unit (see Page 23 1421
. lf the light does not come on, check for:
- An open in the GRN/YEL wire between the
fuel gauge sending unit and the fuel gauge
- A blown bulb.- A poor ground (G552)

8. Add 4L {1.1 U.S. Gal, 0 9 lmp Gal) of fuel The light
should go off within four minutes.
