Millenia L V6-2.5L DOHC (1997)
If there is not infinite resistance, locate and repair short in the harness between the connector and the fuel gauge sender units.
If there is infinite resistance, proceed to STEP 2.
2.
Remove the instrument cluster assembly (meter assembly) disconnecting the center connector per the Workshop Manual. Verify that the resistance
is less than 1 Ohm between connector B1-09 (KL ENGINE) or B2-05 (KJ ENGINE) and the G/Y wire at the instrument cluster assembly.
If less than 1 Ohm a short to ground exists in harness. Locate and repair short. If greater than 1 Ohm, a poor electrical connection exists. locate and
repair poor connection.
Repair Procedure # 4 - Checking Body Grounds
Using an ohmmeter verify that the B/R wire has less than 1 Ohm continuity between the fuel gauge sender connector C-09 and the body ground.
Note
^
Be sure all accessories are off and that none of the courtesy lights are illuminated. Any current flow through the battery will cause a higher than
normal resistance between C-09 and body ground.
If greater than 1 Ohm or no resistance is found a poor connection exists in the ground circuit. Perform the following test and locate the poor connection.
-
Check ground point location 4 or 5 for tight connection.
-
Check all connectors between C-09 and 4 or 5 for poor connections.
-
Use wiring diagram to determine location of ground point and connectors.
If 1 Ohm or less, proceed to STEP 5.
Repair Procedure # 5 - Fuel Meter Testing
