Removal and InstallationABS006JO
CAUTION:

When removing water pump, be careful not to get engine coolant on drive belt.

Water pump can not be disassembled and should be replaced as a unit.
REMOVAL
1. Drain engine coolant from drain plugs on radiator and both side of cylinder block. Refer to CO-36, "Chang-
ing Engine Coolant" and EM-241, "DISASSEMBLY" .
CAUTION:

Perform this step when engine is cold.

Do not spill engine coolant on drive belts.
2. Remove following parts:

Engine front undercover

Air duct (inlet); Refer to EM-172, "AIR CLEANER AND AIR DUCT" .

Alternator, water pump and A/C compressor belt; Refer to EM-169, "DRIVE BELTS" .
3. Remove fan coupling with cooling fan, and then water pump pulley.
4. Remove water pump.

Engine coolant will leak from the cylinder block, so have a receptacle ready under vehicle.
CAUTION:

Handle the water pump vane so that it does not contact any other parts.

Do not disassemble water pump.
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL

Visually check that there is no significant dirt or rusting on water
pump body and vane.

Make sure there is no looseness in vane shaft, and that it turns
smoothly when rotated by hand.

If anything is found, replace water pump.

INSTALLATION
Install in the reverse order of removal.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION

Check for leaks of engine coolant using radiator cap tester adapter [SST: EG17650301 (J33984-A)] and
radiator cap tester (commercial service tool). Refer to CO-36, "
LEAK CHECK" .

Start and warm up engine. Visually make sure that there is no leaks of engine coolant.

COMBINATION METERS
Revision: 2004 November 2004 FX35/FX45
WATER TEMPERATURE GAUGE
The water temperature gauge indicates the engine coolant temperature.
ECM provides a water temperature signal to unified meter and A/C amp. with CAN communication line. Uni-
fied meter and A/C amp. provides a water temperature signal to combination meter for water temperature
gauge with communication line between unified meter and A/C amp. and combination meter.
TACHOMETER
The tachometer indicates engine speed in revolutions per minute (rpm).
ECM provides an engine speed signal to unified meter and A/C amp. with CAN communication line. Unified
meter and A/C amp. provides an engine speed signal to combination meter for tachometer with communica-
tion line between unified meter and A/C amp. and combination meter.
FUEL GAUGE
The fuel gauge indicates the approximate fuel level in the fuel tank.
The fuel gauge is regulated by a variable ground signal supplied

from unified meter and A/C amp. terminal 36

through the fuel level sensor unit and fuel pump (main) terminals 5 and 2, and

through the fuel level sensor unit (sub) terminals 2 and 1

to unified meter and A/C amp. terminal 28 for the fuel gauge.
Unified meter and A/C amp. provides an fuel level signal to combination meter for fuel gauge with communica-
tion line between unified meter and A/C amp. and combination meter.
SPEEDOMETER
ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) provides a vehicle speed signal to the unified meter and A/C amp.
with CAN communication line. After unified meter and A/C amp. received the vehicle speed signal, it changes
the signal to 8 pulse signal and provides the 8 pulse signal to the combination meter for the speedometer.

EVAP CONTROL SYSTEM PRESSURE SENSOR
1. Remove EVAP control system pressure sensor with its harness connector connected from EVAP canister.
Do not reuse the O-ring, replace it with a new one.
2. Install a vacuum pump to EVAP control system pressure sensor.
3. Turn ignition switch ON and check output voltage between ECM
terminal 32 and ground under the following conditions.
CAUTION:

Always calibrate the vacuum pump gauge when using it.

Do not apply below -93.3 kPa (-700 mmHg, -27.56 inHg) or
pressure over 101.3 kPa (760 mmHg, 29.92 inHg).
4. If NG, replace EVAP control system pressure sensor.Water should not exist.

CONSULT-II Reference Value in Data Monitor ModeABS006V9
Specification data are reference values.
On Board Diagnosis LogicABS006VA
If the cooling fan or another component in the cooling system malfunctions, engine coolant temperature will
rise.
When the engine coolant temperature reaches an abnormally high temperature condition, a malfunction is
indicated.
This self-diagnosis has the one trip detection logic.
CAUTION:
When a malfunction is indicated, be sure to replace the coolant. Refer to CO-11, "
Changing Engine
Coolant" . Also, replace the engine oil. Refer to LU-9, "Changing Engine Oil" .
1. Fill radiator with coolant up to specified level with a filling speed of 2 liters per minute. Be sure to
use coolant with the proper mixture ratio. Refer to MA-13, "
Anti-Freeze Coolant Mixture Ratio" .
2. After refilling coolant, run engine to ensure that no water-flow noise is emitted.
Overall Function CheckABS006VB
Use this procedure to check the overall function of the cooling fan. During this check, a DTC might not be con-
firmed.
WARNING:
Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. Serious burns could be caused by high pres-
sure fluid escaping from the radiator.
Wrap a thick cloth around cap. Carefully remove the cap by turning it a quarter turn to allow built-up
pressure to escape. Then turn the cap all the way off.
