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

ture gauge to the engine coolant temperature sensor.
The sensor is a variable resistor and case grounded to

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

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

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.

level. The LED illuminates the Low Fuel indicator.

connects circuit A1 from fuse 4 in the Power Distri-
bution Center (PDC) with circuit A21.
Circuit D20 connects to cavity 45 of the PCM. Cir-
cuit D20 is the SCI receive circuit for the PCM.
Circuit D21 connects to cavity 25 of the PCM. Cir-
cuit D21 is the SCI transmit circuit for the PCM.
Circuit Z11 provides ground for the data link con-
nector. Circuit Z11 splices to circuit Z1 which termi-
nates at the right rear of the engine. Circuit Z11 also
connects to cavity 5 of the PCM.
HELPFUL INFORMATION
²Circuit Z1 also supplies a ground for the PCM
high current drivers.
²If the system loses ground for the Z1 and Z11 cir-
cuits at the right rear of the engine, the vehicle will
not operate. Check the connection at the ganged-
ground circuit eyelet.
BRAKE SWITCH INPUT
Circuit V40 provides the brake switch input to the
Powertrain Control Module (PCM). Circuit V40 con-
nects to cavity 29 of the PCM.
POWER (DEVICE) GROUND
Circuit Z11 connects to cavities 11 and 12 of the
Powertrain Control Module (PCM). The Z1 circuit
provides ground for PCM internal drivers that oper-
ate high current devices like the injectors and igni-
tion coil.
Internal to the PCM, the power (device) ground cir-
cuit connects to the PCM sensor return circuit (from
circuit K4).
HELPFUL INFORMATION
²The grounding point for circuit Z1 is the right rear
of the engine.
²If the system loses ground for the Z1 circuits at
the rear of the engine, the vehicle will not operate.
Check the connection at the ganged-ground circuit
eyelet.
