WATER INLET AND THERMOSTAT ASSEMBLY
Revision: 2006 December 2006 FX35/FX45
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
1. Check valve seating condition at ordinary room temperatures. It should seat tightly.
2. Check valve operation.

If the malfunctioning condition, when valve seating at ordinary
room temperature, or measured values are out of the standard,
replace water inlet and thermostat assembly.
INSTALLATION
Note the following, and install in the reverse order of removal.

Be careful not to spill engine coolant over engine room. Use rag to absorb engine coolant.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION

Check for leaks of engine coolant using the radiator cap tester adapter [SST: EG17650301 (J33984-A)]
and the radiator cap tester (commercial service tool). Refer to CO-11, "
LEAK CHECK" .

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

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.

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.

FUEL GAUGE
The fuel gauge indicates the approximate fuel level in the fuel tank.

Unified meter and A/C amp. reads a resistor signal from fuel level sensor.
Signal is 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 a fuel level signal to combination meter with communication line.

Combination meter indicates the approximate fuel level according to the fuel level signal.
ODO/TRIP METER

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 uses the vehicle speed signal (8-pulse) to calculate the mileage, and displays it.
How to Change The Display For Odo/trip Meter
Switch modes with following procedure.

When trip transfer switch is pressed, trip meter display changes.

If trip reset switch is pressed for 1 second or more while “trip A”
is displayed, only “trip A” is reset.
NOTE:
The record of the odo meter is kept even if the battery cable is dis-
connected. The record of the trip meter is erased when the battery
cable is disconnected.

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:
