Remove the gauge assembly from the dashboard (see section 20). and disconnect the 14P connector from the gauge
assemblv (see section 23),
Inspect the connector and socket terminals to be sure they are all making good contact.
. lf the terminals are bent, loose, or corroded, repairthem as necessary, and recheck the system.. lf the terminals look OK, make the following input tests at the 14P connector.- lf I test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.- lf all the input tests prove OK, but the indicator is faulty. replace the printed circuit board,

Troubleshooting
Most problems in the unit are to be diagnosed by identifying noises from the gears or bear'ngs'
care should be taken during diagnosis not to confuse differential noises with those from other drivetra'n components'
SymptomProbable CauseRemedy
