Component Function Check

1.COMBINATION METER INPUT SIGNAL

  1.  Select "METER/M&A" on CONSULT.

  2.  Using "FUEL METER" of "DATA MONITOR", compare the value of DATA MONITOR with fuel gauge pointer of combination meter.

Diagnosis Procedure

Regarding Wiring Diagram information, refer to MWI-87, "Wiring Diagram".

1.CHECK HARNESS CONNECTOR

  1.  Turn ignition switch OFF.

  2.  Check combination meter and fuel level sensor unit and fuel pump (fuel level sensor) terminals (meterside and harness-side) for poor connection.
