Checking fuel gauge sender -G-. |
Note! t
| Before commencing with check ensure that the fuel gauge sender -G- is correctly installed → Rep. Gr.20. |
t
| If the fuel gauge has not been adapted the control unit with display in dash panel insert -J285- recognises the sender resistance in range: 59 Ω to 78 Ω as “full” and 341 Ω to 360 Ω as “empty”. |
–
| Pull connector off fuel gauge sender -G-. |
–
| Connect ohmmeter to contacts of fuel gauge sender. |
–
| Empty fuel tank until the vehicles own fuel pump no longer delivers fuel (use fuel extraction unit -V.A.G 1433 A-). |
–
| Fill fuel tank with 8 litres of fuel |
With 8 litres of fuel in tank the fuel gauge sender fuel gauge sender -G- should have a resistance of 310 Ω ± 4 Ω. |
If the deviation is more than 20 Ω renew the fuel gauge sender -G-. |
