-Starter Test
NOTE; The air temoerature must be between 59 and
100'F (15 and 38"C) before testing.
Recommended Procedure:
. Use a staner system tester.
. Connect and operate the equipment in accordance
with the manufacturer's instructions.
. Test and troubleshoot as described,
Alternate Procedurg:
. Use the following equipment:- Ammeter, 0 - 400 A
- Voltmeter, 0 - 20 V (accurate within 0.1 volt)
- Tachometer, 0 - 1,200 rpm
. Hook up a voltmeter and ammeter as shown.
NEGATIVETERMINAL
NOTE: After this test, or any subsequent repair. reset
the ECM/PCM to clear any codes (see section l1)
Check the Start€r Engagemont:
1. Remove the No. 44 (15 A) fuse from the under-hood
fuse/relay box,
2. Turn the ignition switch to START (llll with the shift
lever in E or E position (rVT) or with the clutch pedal
depressed {M/T). The starter should crank the engine.
. lf the starter does not crank the engine, go to
step 3.
. lf itcranksthe engineerraticallyortooslowly, go
to "Check for Wear and Damage" on the next
page.
Check the battery. battery positive cable, ground,
starter cut relay, and the wire connections for loose-
ness and corrosion, Test again.
lf the starter still does not crank the engine, go to
step 4,
Unplug the connector (BLK,/WHT wire and solenoid
terminal) from the starter,
Connect a jumper wire from the battery positive (+)
terminal to the solenoid terminal.
The starter should crank the engine.
. lf the starter still does not crank the engine,
remove it, and diagnose its internal problem
. lf the startercranksthe engine, goto step 6.
Check the ignition switch (see page 23-891.
Check the starter cut relay and clutch interlock switch
(see page 23-86,87).
Check the A/f gear position switch (see page 23-154).
Check for an open in the wire between the ignition
switch and starter.

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.
