Fan Control
Fan Motor Testing
1. Disconnect the 2P connector.
Terminalside ofmale terminals
Test the motor by connecting battery power to theNo. 2 terminal and ground to the No. 1 terminal.
lf the motor fails to run or does not run smoothly,reptace rt.

Radiator Fan Switch Testing
E@ Removing the radiator fan switch whilethe engine is hot can cause the coolant to spray out, seri-ously scalding you. Always let the enginc and radiatorcool down before removing the radiator fan switch.
1. Remove the radiator fan switch from the thermostathousing (see page 10 '10).
2. Suspend the radiator fan switch in a container ofwater as shown.
Heat the water, and check the temperature with athermometer. Do not let the thermometer touch thebottom of the hot container.
Measure the continuity between the A and B termi-nals according to the table.
Bleed the air from the cooling system after installingthe radiator fan switch (see page 10-5).

Goolant Temperature Gauge
Gauge Testing
1. Check the No. 25 (7.5 A) fuse in the under-dash
fuse/relay box before testin9.
2. Make sure the ignition switch is OFF, then discon-
nect the YEL/GRN wire from the coolant tempera-
ture sending unit. and ground it with a jumper wire.
YEL/GRNWIRE
Turn the ignition switch ON {ll). Check that the
pointer of the coolant temperature gauge starts
moving toward the "H" mark. Turn the ignition
switch OFF before the pointer reaches "H" on the
gauge dial. Failure to do so may damage the gauge.
lf the pointer of the gauge does not move at all,
check for an open in the YEL/GRN wire.
lf the wires are OK, replace the coolant temperature
gauge.
lf the coolant temperature gauge works, test the
coolant temperature sending unit.

Testing
1. Disconnect the YEUGRN wire from the coolant tem
perature sending unit.

3. lf the readings are substantially different from the
specitications above, inspect the coolant level and
the cooling system. lf the cooling system is OK,
replace the sending unit.

Fuel Pump
Testing
lf you suspect a problem with the fuel pump, check that
the fuel pump actually runs; when it is oN (ll), you will
hear some noise if you hold your ear to the fuel fill port
with the fuel fill cap removed. The fuel pump should run
for two seconds when ignition switch is first turned ON (ll).
lf the fuel pump does not make noise, check it as follows:
1. Fold the left rear seat cushion forward, and remove
the base frame cover (see section 20).
2, Remove the access panel from the floor.
3. Make sure the ignition switch is OFF, then discon-
nect the fuel pumP 5P connector.
4. Connect the PGM-FI main relay 7P connector termr-
nal No. 4 and No, 5 with a jumper wire.

4. Disconnect the fuel lines.
5. Disconnect the 5P connector from the fuel pump.
6. Remove the fuel pump mounting nuts.
7. Remove the fuel pump from the fuel tank.

Fuel Gauge
Tssting
NOTE: Refer to section 23 for the fuel gauge system cir-cuit diagram.
'1. Check the No. 25 METER (7.5 A) fuse in the under-dash fuse/relay box before testing.
2. Fold the left rear seat cushion forward, and remove
the base frame cover {see section 20).
3. Remove the access panel from the floor.
4. Disconnect the 5P connector from the fuel pump.
5. Measure voltage between the 5P connector termi-nals No.2 and No. 5 with the ignition switch ON ( ).There should be between 5 and 8 V.

Turn the ignition switch OFF.
Attach a jumper wire between the No. 2 and No. 5terminals, then turn the ignition switch ON fll).
Check that the pointer of the fuel gauge starts mov-ing toward the "F" mark. Turn the ignition switchOFF before the pointer reaches "F" on the gauge
dial. Failure to do so may damage the luel gauge.
NOTE: The fuel gauge is a bobbin (cross-coil) type,hence the fuel level is continuously indicated evenwhen the ignition switch is OFF, and the pointer
moves more slowly than that of a bimetal type.
. lf the pointer of the fuel gauge does not move atall. replace the gauge.
. lf the gauge is OK, inspect the fuel gauge send-ing unit.

Indicator Light Testing
NOTE: Refer to section 23forthe lowfuel lndicator circuit
clragram.
1. Check the No. 25 METER (7.5 A) fuse in the under-
dash fuse/relay box before testing.
2. Park the vehicle on level ground.
@ Do not smoke while working on the
fuel system. Keep open flame away trom the work
aroa. Drain fuel only into an approved container.
Drain the fuel into an aoDroved container. Then
install the drain bolt with a new washer.
Add less than 8 f (2.1 U.S. Gal. 1.8 lmp. Gal) of fuel,
and turn the ignition switch ON {ll). The low fuel indi-
cator light should come on within four minutes.

. lf the light comes on within four minutes, go tostep 8.
. lf the light does not come on within four min-
utes. go to step 5.
Remove the seat cushion (see section 20).
Remove the fuel tank access panel from the floor,
and disconnect the 5P connector from the fuel pump,
Connect the No. 1 and No. 2 terminals with a jumper
wire.
. lf the lightcomeson, checkthe sending unit.. lf the light does not come on, check for:- an open in the GRN/yEL wire between thefuel unit and fuel gauge assembly.- blown bulb.- poor ground (G552).
