Fuel Gauge Sender: Testing and Inspection
Fuel Gauge Sending Unit Test
NOTE: For the fuel gauge system circuit diagram, refer to the Gauges Circuit Diagram.
1. Check the No. 3 IG METER (10 A) fuse in the under-dash fuse/relay box before testing.
2. Check for body electrical system DTCs.
-
If no problem is found, go to step 3.
-
If DTC B1175 or B1176 is indicated, go to the indicated DTCs troubleshooting.
3. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
4. Remove the center console.
5. Remove the access panel (A) from the floor.
6. Disconnect the fuel tank unit 4P connector (B).
7. Measure voltage between fuel tank unit 4P connector terminals No. 1 and No. 3 with the ignition switch ON (II). There should be battery voltage.
-
If the voltage is OK, go to step 8.
-
If the voltage is not as specified, check for:
-
a short in the YEL/BLK wire to ground.
-
an open in the YEL/BLK or BLK wire.
8. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
9. Remove the fuel tank unit from the fuel tank.
10. Measure resistance between fuel tank unit 4P connector terminals No. 1 and No. 3 with the float at E (EMPTY), LOW (LOW FUEL
INDICATOR), 1/2 (HALF FULL), and F (FULL) positions. If you do not get the following readings, replace the fuel gauge sending unit.
