Speedometer
INSPECTION OF SPEEDOMETER
INSPECT SPEEDOMETER OPERATION (ON±VEHICLE)
(a) Using a speedometer tester, inspect the speedometer
for allowable indication error and check the operation
of the odometer.
HINT: Tire wear and tire over or under inflation will increase
the indication error.
Speed Sensor
INSPECTION OF SPEED SENSOR
INSPECT SPEED SENSOR
Check that there is continuity between terminals A and B
four times per each revolution of the shaft.
If operation is not as specified, replace the speedometer.If error is excessive, replace the speedometer.
(b) Check the speedometer for pointer vibration and ab-
normal noise.
HINT: Pointer vibration can be caused by a loose
speedometer cable.

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.

Fuel Level Warning
INSPECTION OF LEVEL WARNING
1. INSPECT WARNING LIGHT OPERATION
(a) Disconnect the connector from the sender gauge.
(b) Connect terminals 1 and 2 on the wire harness side-
connector.
(e) Turn the ignition switch ON, check that the warning
light lights.
If the warning light does not light, test the bulb.
2. INSPECT WARNING SWITCH OPERATION
(a) Apply battery voltage to terminals 1 and 2 through a
3.4W test bulb, check that the bulb lights.
HINT: It will take a short time for the bulb to light.If resistance value is not as specified, replace the receiver
gauge.
3. INSPECT SENDER GAUGE OPERATION
(a) Connect a series of three 1.5V dry cell batterys.
(b) Connect the positive (+) lead from the dry cell batter-
ys to terminal 3 through a 3.4W test bulb and the neg-
ative (±) lead to terminal 4.
(c) Check that the voltage rises between terminals 3 and
4 as the float is moved from the top to bottom posi-
tion. 2. MEASURE RECEIVER GAUGE RESISTANCE
Measure the resistance between terminals.
(d) Measure the resistance between terminals 3 and 4
for each float position.
If operation is not as specified, replace the sender
gauge.

Water Temperature 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 COOL.
(c) Ground the terminal on the wire harness side con-
nector through a 3.4W test bulb.
(d) Turn the ignition switch ON, check that the bulb lights
and the receiver gauge needle moves to the hot side.
If operation is not as specified, measure the receiver
gauge resistance. (b) Submerge the switch in fuel, check that the bulb goes
out.
If operation is not as specified, replace the sender gauge.
2. MEASURE RECEIVER GAUGE RESISTANCE
Measure the resistance between terminals.
If resistance value is not as specified, replace the re-
ceiver gauge.
