INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
The instrument cluster contains the gauges and
warning lamps. All gauges have magnetic move-
ments.
When the ignition switch is in the START or RUN
position, circuit A21 feeds circuit F87 through fuse 17
in the fuse block. Circuit A1 from fuse 6 in the Power
Distribution Center (PDC) supplies voltage to circuit
A21. Circuit A1 is HOT at all times.
Circuit F87 connects to the cluster connector to
power the gauges and to the telltale connector to
power the warning lamps.
Circuit E2 from fuse 19 in the fuse block feeds the
illumination lamps. Circuit E2 originates at the head-
lamp switch and continues through fuse 19. The
headlamp switch powers circuit E2 when the parking
lamps or headlamp are ON.
Circuit Z2 provides ground for the indicator lamps
and illumination lamps.
ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE GAUGE
Circuit G20 connects the engine coolant tempera-
ture gauge to the engine coolant temperature sensor.
The sensor is a variable resistor and case grounded to
the engine. Circuit F87 connects to the instrument
cluster left connector and supplies voltage for the
gauge.
The gauge uses two coils. Current passing through
the coils creates a magnetic field. Position of the
gauge needle is controlled by the amount of current
passing through the coils to ground at the sensor.
ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE WARNING
LAMP
Circuit G20 connects the engine coolant tempera-
ture warning lamp to the engine coolant temperature
switch. When the switch closes, battery voltage from
circuit F87 flows through the lamp to ground through
the switch on circuit G20. The engine coolant tem-
perature switch is case grounded to the engine. Cir-cuit F87 connects to the instrument cluster connector
and supplies voltage for the lamp.
Circuit G20 also connects to the warning lamp to
ground when the ignition switch is in the START
position. When the ignition switch is in the START
position, the lamp illuminates for a bulb test.
FUEL GAUGE
The fuel level sensor is a variable resistor. Circuit
G4 connects the fuel level sensor to the fuel gauge in
the instrument cluster. Circuit F87 from fuse 17 in
the fuse block supplies voltage to the fuel gauge. The
fuel level sensor draws voltage from circuit F87
through the fuel gauge on circuit G4. Circuit G4
connects to circuit 57 in the fuel pump module har-
ness. Circuit 57 connects to the fuel level sensor.
Circuit 99 in the fuel pump module harness con-
nects to circuit Z1. Circuit Z1 provides the ground
path for the fuel level sensor. The grounding point for
circuit Z1 is the left side of the cowl panel.
As current flows through the coils in the fuel gauge,
it creates a magnetic field. One of the coils in the
gauge receives fixed current. The other coil is con-
nected to the level sensor. The magnetic field controls
the position of the fuel gauge pointer.
The fuel level sensor contains a variable resistor. As
the position of the float arm on the fuel level sensor
changes, the resistor changes the current flow
through second coil in the fuel gauge. A change in
current flow alters the magnetic field in the fuel
gauge, which changes the pointer position.
LOW FUEL WARNING LAMP
Circuit G4 connects the fuel level sensor to the fuel
gauge. The low fuel level module at the rear of the
gauge monitors resistance in circuit G4. The low fuel
level module powers an light emitting diode (LED)
when the resistance in circuit G4 reaches a calibrated
level. The LED illuminates the Low Fuel indicator.
Refer to Group 8E for additional information.
