Fuel Gauge
INSPECTION OF GAUGE
1. INSPECT RECEIVER GAUGE OPERATION
(a) Disconnect the connector from the sender gauge.
(b) Turn the ignition switch ON, check that the receiver
gauge needle moves to EMPTY.
(e) Connect the terminals 3 and 4 on the wire harness
side connector through a 3.4W test bulb, check that
the bulb lights and receiver gauge needle moves to-
wards the full side.
HINT: Because of the silicon oil in the gauge, it will take
a short time for the needle to stabilize.
If operation is not as specified, test the receiver gauge.
Tachometer
INSPECTION OF TACHOMETER
INSPECT TACHOMETER OPERATION (ON±VEHICLE)
(a) Connect a tune±up test tachometer, and start the en-
gine.
NOTICE:
wRemoving the connection of the tachometer will
damage the transistors and diodes inside.
wWhen removing or installing the tachometer, be
careful not to drop or subject it to heavy shocks.
(b) Compare the tester and tachometer indications.
If error is excessive, replace the tachometer.
