DESCRIPTION & OPERATION
Instrument cluster includes speedometer, fuel gauge and
temperature gauge. Fuel gauge has a built-in voltage limiter to keep
voltage supply to gauges at 7 volts. Some models may also have a
shunt-type ammeter, oil pressure gauge, tachometer, voltmeter and/or
turbo boost pressure gauge. Oil pressure gauge uses full battery
voltage. The tachometer operates by pulse feed.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
FUEL/TEMPERATURE GAUGE NOT WORKING
Check for blown fuse, faulty voltage limiter or faulty relay.
Ensure sending unit connections are clean and tight. Test sending unit
for correct operation. Tighten connections in instrument cluster.
SPEEDOMETER NOT WORKING
Ensure speedometer cable is properly connected and correctly
routed. If speedometer pointer and/or odometer still do not work,
replace speedometer as an assembly.
TACHOMETER NOT WORKING
Tachometer is serviced as an assembly. If wiring harness is
okay, replace tachometer assembly.
WARNING LIGHTS NOT WORKING
Test for defective sending unit, burned out bulb, or broken
printed circuit. Ensure all wire connections are clean and tight.
TESTING
FUEL TANK SENDING UNIT
Resistance Test
Remove fuel tank sending unit from fuel tank. Measure
resistance between appropriate terminals with fuel float in Full and
Empty positions. See Fig. 1. Compare resistance reading to
FUEL TANK SENDING UNIT RESISTANCE SPECIFICATIONS table. If resistance
is not to specifications, replace fuel tank sending unit.

1991 ENGINE PERFORMANCE
System & Component Testing
Chrysler Motors: Ram-50
Mitsubishi: Montero, Pickup
INTRODUCTION
Before testing separate components or systems, perform
procedures in F - BASIC TESTING article in the ENGINE PERFORMANCE
Section. Since many computer controlled and monitored components set a
trouble code if they malfunction, also perform procedures in G - TESTS
W/CODES article in the ENGINE PERFORMANCE Section.
NOTE: Testing individual components does not isolate shorts or
opens. Perform all voltage tests with a Digital
Volt-Ohmmeter (DVOM) with a minimum 10-megohm input
impedance, unless stated otherwise in test procedure. Use
ohmmeter to isolate wiring harness shorts or opens.
COMPUTERIZED ENGINE CONTROLS
CONTROL UNIT
NOTE: To identify ECU power and ground circuits, see appropriate
L - WIRING DIAGRAMS article in the ENGINE PERFORMANCE
Section.
Ground Circuits
1) ECU is located near right kick panel. Turn ignition off.
Using an ohmmeter, check for continuity between ground and ECU
terminals No. 101 and 106. Resistance should be zero ohms. If
resistance is not zero ohms, repair open circuit between ECU connector
and ground.
2) Connect voltmeter negative lead to ground. Connect
positive lead to ECU ground terminals as in step 1). With vehicle
running, voltmeter should indicate less than one volt. If voltmeter
reading is greater than one volt, check for open, corrosion or loose
connection in ground circuit.
Power Circuits
ECU is located near right kick panel. Turn ignition on. Check
for battery voltage on ECU terminals No. 102 and 107. If battery
voltage is not present, check operation of MPI control relay. See
RELAYS under MOTORS, RELAYS & SOLENOIDS.
ENGINE SENSORS & SWITCHES
BAROMETRIC PRESSURE SENSOR
Sensor is a component part of airflow sensor assembly. See G
- TESTS W/CODES article in the ENGINE PERFORMANCE Section.
COOLANT TEMPERATURE SENSOR
1) Remove coolant temperature sensor located near thermostat
housing (2-wire connector). Place end of sensor in water with terminal\

VEHICLE SPEED SENSOR
1) Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) is located in speedometer
assembly. Connect an ohmmeter between sensor terminals on back of
instrument panel. See Fig. 7 or 8.
2) Rotate speedometer cable. For each revolution of
speedometer cable, sensor should make and break continuity 4 times. If
ohmmeter reading does not fluctuate between continuity and no
continuity or if sensor does not make and break continuity 4 times for
each revolution, replace sensor.

NOTE: For internal wiring diagram of MPI control relay, see
appropriate L - WIRING DIAGRAMS article in the ENGINE
PERFORMANCE Section.
MPI Control Relay (Montero, Pickup 3.0L & Ram-50 3.0L)
1) MPI control relay is located near right kick panel. Check
for battery voltage at terminal No. 10 of relay connector. See Fig. 9.
If battery voltage is present, go to step 3). If battery voltage is
not present, check circuit between relay and battery, including
fusible link No. 1.

2) Apply battery voltage to terminal No. 10. Battery voltage
should not be present at terminals No. 4 and 5. Apply battery voltage
to terminal No. 10, and ground terminal No. 8. Battery voltage should
now be present at terminals No. 4 and 5.
3) Apply battery voltage to terminal No. 3. Battery voltage
should not be present at terminal No. 2. Apply battery voltage to
terminal No. 3, and ground terminal No. 7. Battery voltage should now
be present at terminal No. 2.
4) Apply battery voltage to terminal No. 9. Battery voltage
should not be present at terminal No. 2. Apply battery voltage to
terminal No. 9, and ground terminal No. 6. Battery voltage should now
be present at terminal No. 2. Replace relay if it does not test as
specified.
MPI Control Relay (Pickup 2.4L & Ram-50)
1) MPI control relay is located near right kick panel. Check
for battery voltage at terminal No. 4 of relay connector. See Fig. 10.
If battery voltage is present, go to step 3). If battery voltage is
