DESCRIPTION
Heater assembly is located in passenger compartment. A heater
control valve is used to regulate coolant flow and heat output. Heater
assembly contains heater core, heater control valve, air ducts, blower
motor and intake ducts. See Fig. 1. Heater systems are blend-air type.
OPERATION
Heater and fresh air operations are controlled by control
knobs and/or levers, which regulate airflow source, temperature
setting, airflow direction and blower speed.

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION
WARNING: Deactivate air bag system before performing any service
operation. See AIR BAG RESTRAINT SYSTEMS article. Do not
apply electrical power to any component on steering column
without first deactivating air bag system. Air bag may
deploy.
Instrument cluster includes speedometer, fuel gauge and
temperature gauge. Fuel gauge has a built-in voltage limiter to keep
voltage supply to gauges at 7 volts. Some models may also have an
ammeter, oil pressure gauge, tachometer, voltmeter and/or turbo boost
pressure gauge. Oil pressure gauge uses full battery voltage.
Tachometer operates by pulse feed.

TROUBLE SHOOTING
FUEL/TEMPERATURE GAUGE NOT WORKING
Check for blown fuse, faulty voltage limiter and faulty
relay. Ensure sending unit connections are clean and tight. Test
sending unit for correct operation. Tighten connections in instrument
cluster.
SPEEDOMETER NOT WORKING
On mechanical-type speedometers, ensure speedometer cable is
properly connected and correctly routed. If speedometer pointer and/or
odometer still do not work, replace speedometer cable or speedometer
assembly.
On electric-type speedometers, check for faulty vehicle speed
sensor, input/output sensors or faulty circuit. For testing, see
Page 840 of 1501
speedometer.
TEMPERATURE GAUGE
CAUTION: DO NOT connect sender wire directly to ground during test.
Circuit Test
1) Disconnect temperature sender wire from sending unit.
Connect a 12-volt, 3.4-watt test light between connector terminal and
ground. Turn ignition switch to ON position.
2) If test light flashes and temperature gauge needle moves,
go to SENSOR RESISTANCE TEST. If test light does not flash or gauge
needle does not move, repair wiring to sending unit.
Sensor Resistance Test
1) Remove Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor from
engine. See COMPONENT LOCATIONS . Place sending unit in 158
F (70C)
water. Check sensor resistance using ohmmeter.
2) ECT sensor resistance should be 90-117 ohms. If ECT sensor
resistance is okay, go to GAUGE RESISTANCE TEST. Replace ECT sensor if
resistance is not as specified.
Gauge Resistance Test
1) Remove instrument cluster. See INSTRUMENT CLUSTER under
REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. On 3000GT, remove air distribution duct and
combination gauges.
2) On all models, check resistance between temperature gauge
terminals at rear of cluster or combination gauges. See
TEMPERATURE GAUGE RESISTANCE SPECIFICATIONS table. See Fig. 21, 22,
23, 24, 25, 26, 27 or 28.

INTRODUCTION
Sensor operating range information can help determine if a
sensor is out of calibration. An out-of-calibration sensor may not set
a diagnostic trouble code, but it may cause driveability problems. For
sensors not listed in this article, see G - TESTS W/CODES article.
NOTE: Unless stated otherwise in test procedure, perform all
voltage tests using a Digital Volt-Ohmmeter (DVOM) with a
minimum 10-megohm input impedance. For connector terminal
identification, see TERMINAL IDENTIFICATION in

allowing metal objects to contact the battery posts and the
vehicle at the same time.
CAUTION: Never disconnect the battery while the engine is running;
doing so could damage the car's electrical components.
REPLACING BLOWN FUSES
Before replacing a blown fuse, remove ignition key, turn off
all lights and accessories to avoid damaging the electrical system. Be
sure to use fuse with the correct indicated amperage rating. The use
of an incorrect amperage rating fuse may result in a dangerous
electrical system overload.
BRAKE PAD WEAR INDICATOR
Indicator will cause a squealing or scraping noise, warning
that brake pads need replacement.
BRAKE FLUID
WARNING: DO NOT use reclaimed fluid or fluid that has been stored
in old or open containers. It is essential that foreign
particles and other liquids are kept out of the brake fluid
reservoir.
CATALYTIC CONVERTER
Continued operation of vehicle with a severe malfunction
could cause converter to overheat, resulting in possible damage to
converter and vehicle.
ENGINE COOLANT SERVICE
WARNING: To avoid the danger of being scalded never change the coolant
when the engine is hot.
WARNING: Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot Serious
burns could be caused by high pressure fluid escaping from
the radiator.
CAUTION: When adding or replacing engine coolant, use a high quality
ethylene glycol antifreeze diluted with 50% distilled water.
When putting the cap on the reserve tank, line up the arrow
on the cap and the arrow on the tank, or coolant can leak out
ENGINE DRIVE BELT SERVICE
WARNING: Be sure the ignition key is OFF. The engine could rotate
unexpectedly.
ENGINE OIL
WARNING: The engine oil may be high enough to burn your fingers
when the drain plug is loosened. Wait until the drain plug
is cool enough to touch with you bare hands.
WARNING: Continuous contact with used engine oil has been found to
cause skin cancer in laboratory animals. Brief contact with
used engine oil may irritate skin. To minimize your exposure
to used oil, wear a long sleeve shirt and moisture-proof
gloves when changing oil. If oil contacts your skin, wash
