Revision: August 20072004 QX56
Fuel Gauge Fluctuates, Indicates Wrong Value, or VariesEKS007E0
1. CHECK FUEL GAUGE FLUCTUATION
Test drive vehicle to see if gauge fluctuates only during driving or just before or just after stopping.
Does the indication value vary only during driving or just before or just after stopping?
YES >> The fluctuation may be caused by fuel level change in the fuel tank. Condition is normal.
NO >> Ask the customer about the situation when the symptom occurs in detail, Refer to DI-22, "
Fuel
Level Sensor Unit Inspection" .
Fuel Gauge Does Not Move to Full-positionEKS007E1
1. CHECK POINTER MOVEMENT TO FULL-POSITION
Does it take a long time for the pointer to move to full-position?
YES or NO
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> GO TO 3.
2. CHECK IGNITION SWITCH POSITION
Was the vehicle fueled with the ignition switch ON?
YES or NO
YES >> Be sure to fuel the vehicle with the ignition switch OFF. Otherwise, it will take a long time for the
pointer to move to full-position because of the characteristic of the fuel gauge.
NO >> GO TO 3.
3. OBSERVE VEHICLE POSITION
Is the vehicle parked on an incline?
YES or NO
YES >> Check the fuel level indication with vehicle on a level surface.
NO >> GO TO 4.
4. CHECK POINTER MOVEMENT TO EMPTY-POSITION
During driving, does the fuel gauge move gradually toward empty-position?
YES or NO
YES >> Check the fuel level sensor unit. Refer to DI-25, "FUEL LEVEL SENSOR UNIT CHECK" .
NO >> Check fuel level sensor unit installation, and determine whether the float arm interferes or binds
with any of the internal components in the fuel tank.

Trouble DiagnosesEKS007E6
PRELIMINARY CHECK FOR THERMOMETER
1. COOL DOWN CHECK
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
2. Cool down the ambient sensor with water or ice.
Does the indicated temperature drop?
Yes >> GO TO 2.
No >> The system is malfunctioning. Refer to DI-28, "
INSPECTION/COMPASS AND THERMOMETER"
.
2. WARM UP CHECK
1. Leave the vehicle for 10 minutes.
2. With the ignition switch in the ON position, disconnect and reconnect the ambient sensor connector.
Does the indicated temperature rise?
Yes >> The system is OK.
No >> The system is malfunctioning. Refer to DI-28, "
INSPECTION/COMPASS AND THERMOMETER"
.
NOTE:
The indicated temperature on the thermometer is not readily affected by engine heat. It changes only
when one of the following conditions is present.
–The temperature detected by the ambient sensor is lower than the indicated temperature on the thermom-
eter.
–The vehicle speed is greater than 20 km/h (13 MPH).
(This is to prevent the indicated temperature from being affected by engine heat during low-speed driv-
ing.)
–The ignition switch has been turned to the OFF position for more than 2 hours. (The engine is cold.)

WARNING CHIME
Revision: August 20072004 QX56
System DescriptionEKS007EF
FUNCTION
Power is supplied at all times
through 50A fusible link (letter f , located in the fuse and fusible link box)
to BCM terminal 70, and
through 10A fuse [No. 19, located in the fuse block (J/B)]
to key switch and key lock solenoid terminal 3.
With ignition switch in ON or START position, power is supplied
through 10A fuse [No. 59, located in the fuse and relay box)
to BCM terminal 38.
Ground is supplied
to BCM terminal 67
through body grounds M57, M61, and M79.
NOTE:
When ignition key warning chime, light warning chime, and seat belt warning chime are required at the same
time, the priorities for each chime are the following.
1. Light warning chime
2. Ignition key warning chime
3. Seat belt warning chime
IGNITION KEY WARNING CHIME
With the key inserted in the ignition switch, the ignition switch in OFF position, and the driver's door open, the
warning chime will sound.
Power is supplied
through key switch and key lock solenoid terminal 4
to BCM terminal 37.
Ground is supplied
to BCM terminal 47
through front door switch LH terminal 2.
Front door switch LH is case grounded.
BCM detects key inserted into the ignition switch, and sends key warning signal to combination meter via CAN
communication lines. When the combination meter receives key warning signal, it sounds warning chime.
LIGHT WARNING CHIME
With the key removed from the ignition switch, the driver's door open, and the lighting switch (part of the com-
bination switch) in 1st or 2nd position, the warning chime will sound. [Except when headlamp battery saver
control operates (5 minutes after ignition switch is turned to OFF or ACC position) and headlamps do not illu-
minate.]
Signal is supplied
from combination switch (lighting switch) terminals 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10
to BCM terminals 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 32, 33, 34, 35 and 36.
NOTE:
BCM detected lighting switch in 1st or 2nd position. Refer to BCS-3, "
COMBINATION SWITCH READING
FUNCTION" .
Ground is supplied
to BCM terminal 47
through front door switch LH terminal 2.
Front door switch LH is case grounded.
BCM detects headlamps are illuminated, and sends light warning signal to combination meter CAN communi-
cation lines. When the combination meter receives light warning signal, it sounds warning chime.
SEAT BELT WARNING CHIME
When the ignition switch is turned ON with the seat belt unfastened (seat belt buckle switch LH unfastened),
warning chime will sound for approximately 6 seconds.

Ground is supplied
to combination meter terminal 27
through seat belt buckle pre-tensioner assembly LH (seat belt buckle switch) terminal 1.
Seat belt buckle pre-tensioner assembly LH (seat belt buckle switch) terminal 2 is grounded through body
grounds B7 and B19.
The combination meter sends seat belt buckle switch LH unfastened signal to BCM via CAN communication
line.
BCM receives seat belt buckle switch LH unfastened signal from combination meter via CAN communication
line, and sends seat belt warning signal to the combination meter via CAN communication line. When the
combination meter receives the seat belt warning signal, it sounds the warning chime. The BCM controls the
(6 second) duration of the seat belt warning chime.
