Removal and InstallationNBS003KS
REMOVAL
1. Drain engine coolant from drain plugs on radiator and both side of cylinder block. Refer to CO-38, "Chang-
ing Engine Coolant" and EM-249, "DISASSEMBLY" .
CAUTION:

Perform this step when engine is cold.

Do not spill engine coolant on drive belts.
2. Remove engine cover with power tool. Refer to EM-173, "
ENGINE ROOM COVER" .
3. Remove air duct (inlet). Refer to EM-177, "
AIR CLEANER AND AIR DUCT" .
4. Disconnect water suction hose from water inlet.
5. Remove water inlet and thermostat. CAUTION:
Do not disassemble thermostat.
6. Remove intake manifolds (upper and lower). Refer to EM-179, "
INTAKE MANIFOLD" .
7. Disconnect radiator hose (upper) and water hoses from thermostat housing.
8. Disconnect heater hoses from water outlet and heater pipe.
9. Remove thermostat housing, water outlet pipe, water connector, water control valve, water outlet and heater pipe.
CAUTION:
Do not disassemble water control valve.
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL

Make sure that valves both in thermostat and water control valve are completely closing at normal temper-
ature.

Place a thread so that it is caught in the valves of the thermostat
and water control valve. Immerse fully in a container filled with
water. Heat while stirring. (The example in the figure shows ther-
mostat.)

The valve opening temperature is the temperature at which the
valve opens and falls from the thread.

Continue heating. Check the maximum valve lift.
NOTE:
The maximum valve lift standard temperature for water control
valve is the reference value.

After checking the maximum valve lift, lower the water tempera-
ture and check the valve closing temperature.
Standard values:

If the malfunctioning condition, when closing valve at normal temperature, or measured values are out of
the standard, replace thermostat and/or water control valve.
INSTALLATION
Note the following, and install in the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to spill engine coolant over engine room. Use rag to absorb engine coolant.

Thermostat and Water Control Valve

Install thermostat and water control valve with the whole circum-
ference of each flange part fit securely inside rubber ring. (The
example in the figure shows thermostat.)

Install thermostat with jiggle valve facing upwards. (The position
deviation may be within the range of ±10 degrees)

Install water control valve with the up-mark facing up and the
frame center part facing upwards. (The position deviation may
be within the range of ±10 degrees)
Water Outlet Pipe and Heater Pipe
First apply a neutral detergent to O-rings, then quickly insert the insertion parts of the water outlet pipe and
heater pipe into the installation holes.
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-38, "
LEAK CHECK" .

Start and warm up engine. Visually check if there is no leaks of engine coolant.

System DescriptionNKS002ZC
UNIFIED METER CONTROL UNIT

Speedometer, odo/trip meter, tachometer, fuel gauge and water temperature gauge are controlled by the
unified meter control unit, which is built into the combination meter. Unified meter control unit receives sig-
nals from unified meter and A/C amp.

Warning lamp and indicator lamp of combination meter are controlled by signals drawn from the unified
meter and A/C amp.

Odo/trip meter, shift position indicator and ICC system display segments can be checked in self-diagnosis
mode.

Meters/gauges can be checked in self-diagnosis mode.
UNIFIED METER AND A/C AMP.
Refer to DI-28, "COMBINATION METER CONTROL FUNCTION" in “UNIFIED METER AND A/C AMP”.
POWER SUPPLY AND GROUND CIRCUIT
Power is supplied at all times

through 10A fuse [No. 19, located in the fuse block (J/B)]

to combination meter terminal 8, and

to unified meter and A/C amp. terminal 21.
With the ignition switch in the ON or START position, power is supplied

through 10A fuse [No. 14, located in the fuse block (J/B)]

to combination meter terminal 7,

through 10A fuse [No. 12, located in the fuse block (J/B)]

to unified meter and A/C amp. terminal 22.
With the ignition switch in the ACC or ON position, power is supplied

through 10A fuse [No. 6, located in the fuse block (J/B)]

to combination meter terminal 4,

through 15A fuse [No. 10, located in the fuse block (J/B)], and

through 15A fuse [No. 11, located in the fuse block (J/B)]

to unified meter and A/C amp. terminal 46.
Ground is supplied

to combination meter terminals 5, 6 and 15

through grounds M35, M45 and M85,

to unified meter and A/C amp. terminals 29 and 30

through grounds M35, M45 and M85.

COMBINATION METERS
Revision: 2006 December 2006 FX35/FX45
SPEEDOMETER
The speedometer indicates the vehicle speed.

ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) provides a vehicle speed signal to the unified meter and A/C
amp. with CAN communication.

Unified meter and A/C amp. converts the vehicle speed signal to the 8-pulse signal, and outputs the vehi-
cle speed signal (8-pulse) to combination meter.

Combination meter indicates the vehicle speed according to vehicle speed signal (8-pulse) signal.
TACHOMETER
The tachometer indicates engine speed in revolutions per minute (rpm).

ECM provides engine speed signal to unified meter and A/C amp. with CAN communication.

Unified meter and A/C amp. transmits engine speed signal to combination meter with communication line.

Combination meter indicates the engine speed according to engine speed signal.
WATER TEMPERATURE GAUGE
The water temperature gauge indicates the engine coolant temperature.

ECM provides engine coolant temperature signal to unified meter and A/C amp. with CAN communica-
tion.

Unified meter and A/C amp. transmits engine coolant temperature signal to combination meter with com-
munication line.

Combination meter indicates the engine coolant temperature according to engine coolant temperature
signal.

COMBINATION METER ILLUMINATION CONTROL
Daytime Mode
When ignition switch is turned ON, combination meter illumination is turned ON by unified meter control unit.
Nighttime Mode

Unified meter control unit is transferred to nighttime mode, with ignition switch turned ON and position
light request signal from BCM with CAN communication.

When nighttime mode, illumination control switch illumination
turns ON by unified meter control unit. Each illumination is con-
trolled by unified meter control unit.

Each illumination can be adjusted to 16 step by illumination con-
trol switch in nighttime mode.
NOTE:
For further details of illumination circuit, refer to LT- 1 8 9 , "
ILLUMINA-
TION" .
