GaugeTest
NOTE: Refer to page 23-116 fot the wiring description
oJ the engine coolant temperature (ECT) gauge circuit
diagram.
1. Check the No. 15 (10 A) fuse in the under-dash
tuse/relay box before testing.
2. Make sure the ignition switch is OFF, then discon-
nect the YEL/GRN wire from the ECT gauge send-
ing unit and g.ound it with a jumper wire.
Turn the ignition switch ON (lll.
Check that the pointer of the ECT gauge starts mov-
ing toward the "H" mark,
CAUTION: Tuln th6 ignition switch OFF botore th€
point reaches "H" on tho gaugo dial. Failuro to do
so may damago tho gaugo.
a It the pointer of the gauge does not move at all,
check Jor an oDen in rhe YEL or YEL/GRN wire.
lf the wires are OK, replsce the ECT gauge.
a It the ECT gauge works, test the ECT sending
untt.

Engine Coolant Temperature (ECTI Gauge
ECT Sending Unit Test
Disconnect the YEL/GRN wire from the ECT send-
ing unit.
With the engine cold, use an ohmmeter to measure
resistance between the positive terminal and the en-
gine (ground).
Check the temperature of the coolant.
Run the engine and measure the change in ,esistance
with the engine ai operating temperatu.e {the radi-
ator tan comes on).
5. ll the obtained readings are substantially different
Jrom the specifications above, replace the ECT send-
ing unit.

Replacement
Remove the console, then disconnect the 14-P con-nectof from the switch.
Remove the two console switch mounting nuts.

1. Shift to the ill position, and loosen the nuts.
2. Slide the switch in the direcrion of E position
[within 2.O mm (O.079 in.)l so that there is continuity
between the "A" and "L" terminals in the ranqe of
free plsy oJ the shiJt lever.
3. Recheck for continuity between each ot the ter-
minals.
NOTE:
a lf adiustment is not possible. check for damage
to the shiJt lever detent and/or the bracket. lfthere is no damage, replace the console switch.a The engine should start when the shift lever is inposition LN] in the range of free play.
@ porition
Position the switch slider to "Neutral" as shown
above.
4. Move the shift lever to
switch into position.then slip the
Attach the switch with the two nuts.
Test the switch in the @ and E] position ot the shift
lever. The engine should sta.t when the shift leveris in position p anywhere in the range of free play.
Connect the 14-P connector, clamp the harness andinstall the console.

Troubleshooting
NOTE:
a The numbers in the table show the troubleshooting sequence.
a Before troubleshooting,- check the No.15 {10 A) and *No. 24 fuses in the under-dash fuse/relay box, and the No.41 (1OO A), No.39(50 A). and No.42 (20 Al fuses in the under-hood fuse/relav box.- check that the horn sounds.
check the tachometer to see if it wo.ks pfoperly.
*No. 24 {15 A): Bl8B1 engine
No. 24 {2O A}: 818C1 engine
