A jumper wire is used to close an open circuit. Never
use one to connect a power supply directly to a load.
Z16602274. Voltmeter
A voltmeter is used to measure the circuit voltage. Normally,the positive (red lead) probe is applied to the point of
voltage measurement and the negative (black lead) probeto the body ground.
5. Ohmmeter
An ohmmeter is used to check continuity or measure resis-
tance of a switch or coil. If the measuring range has been
changed, the zero point must be adjusted before measure-
ment.
CHECKING SWITCHES
In a circuit diagram, a switch is represented by a symbol andin the idle state.
1. Normal open or normal close switch
Switches are classified into those which make the circuit
open and those which make the circuit closed when off.

This figure illustrates a complex switch. The continuity
between terminals at each position is as indicated in the
table below.4th stage
CHECKING RELAYS1. When current flows through the coil of a relay, its core
is magnetized to attract the iron piece, closing (ON) the
contact at the tip of the iron piece. When the coil current
is turned off, the iron piece is made to return to its original
position by a spring, opening the contact (OFF).
2.By using a relay, a heavy current can be turned on and
off by a switch of small capacity. For example, in the circuit
shown here, when the switch is turned on (closed), current
flows to the coil of the relay. Then, its contact is turned
on (closed) and the light comes on. The current flowingat this time to the switch is the relay coil current only
and is very small.3. The relays may be classified into the normal open type
and the normal close type by their contact construction.
NOTE
The deenergized state means that no current is flowing
through the coil and the energized state means that current
is flowing through the coil.

OPERATION
l
When the ignition key is at the “ON” position,the fuel gauge is activated.
l
When there is much fuel, the unit’s resistanceis small and the current flowing in the circuit
is great, so the gauge’s indicator indicates inthe “F” area.
l When there is little fuel, the unit’s resistance
is high and the current flowing in the circuit
is small, so the gauge’s indicator indicates inthe
“E” area.

lWhen the ignition key is at the “ON” position,
the engine coolant temperature gauge is acti-
vated.l
When the engine coolant temperature is high,
the unit’s resistance is low and there is a greatflow of current in the circuit, so the gauge’s
indicator indicates in the “H” area.
l
When the engine coolant temperature is low,
the unit’s resistance is high and there is a smallflow of current in the circuit, so the gauge’s
indicator indicates in the “C” area.
/Speed sensor (electrical speedometer type)>l Pulses are produced in accordance with the
vehicle speed, and vehicle-speed signals areinput to systems (the MFI system, etc.) that
regulate according to the vehicle speed.
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
1.The fuel gauge doesn’t function, or shows the
incorrect indication.
(1) Disconnect the connector of the fuel pumpand gauge unit assembly; the ‘F” side is
indicated when terminal (5) is then
grounded.l Check the fuel gauge.
2.The engine coolant temperature gauge doesn’t
function, or shows the incorrect indication.
(1)The “l-l” side is indicated when the connector
of the engine coolant temperature gauge
unit is disconnected and then grounded.l
Check the engine coolant temperature
gauge unit.
3. Systems dependent upon control according to
the vehicle speed do not function correctly.l Check the reed switch (mechanical
speedometer type)l Check the speed sensor (electrical
speedometer type)
coil pressure gauge>l
When the ignition key is at the “ON” position,
the oil pressure gauge is activated.
lWhen oil pressure is high, the internal contacts
of the gauge unit are kept closed for a longerperiod of time. This causes more current to
flow in the circuit, and the gauge pointer swings
to the high pressure side.
lWhen oil pressure is low, the internal contactsof the gauge unit open in a shorter period of
time. Therefore, there is less current flowing
in the circuit and the gauge pointer swings to
the low pressure side.

lWhen the ignition key is set to the “ON” position,the gauge indicator will be at
“0”.l
When the engine is started, the indicator will
move from
“0” to the minus (-) side, and then,as the boost level increases, it will move to
the plus
(+) side.
l When the ignition key is placed in the “ON”
position, the voltage gauge operates and indi-
cates a battery voltage of approximately 12 V.l
When the engine is started, the voltage gauge
indicates a battery voltage of 12 to 16 V, indicat-ing that the battery is on charge.
4. The oil pressure gauge doesn’t function, or
shows the incorrect indication.
(1)The “H” side is indicated when the connectorof the oil pressure gauge unit is discon-
nected and then grounded.l Check the oil pressure gauge unit.
5.The meter illumination light does not illuminate.
(1) The tail lights illuminate.l Check the rheostat.
6. The voltage gauge doesn’t function, or shows
the incorrect indication.l Check the voltage gauge.

COMPONENT LOCATION
OPERATIONl
The horn switch always receives battery voltagevia the dedicated fuse (6) and the coil of the
horn relay.
l
When the horn switch is set to ON, the contactsof the horn relay close.
Then current flows through the dedicated fuse
(6) to the contacts of the horn relay, the hornand ground, causing the horn to sound.1. One of the horn does not sound.
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTSl Check the horn.
2. Horns do not sound.
l Check the horn switch.
l Check the dedicated fuse (6).
NOTE
(1) For vehicles equipped with the theft-alarm sys-tem, refer to
P.54-205.
(2) For information concerning the horn relay and
theft-alarm horn relay, refer to
P.54-?18.
