INSPECTION
1. INSPECT SPEEDOMETER ON-VEHICLE
Using a speedometer tester, inspect the speedometer for allow-
able indication error and check the operation of the odometer.
HINT:
Tire wear and tire over or under inflation will increase the indica-
tion error.
If error is excessive, replace the speedometer.

140 134 - 151.5
160 153 - 173
2. INSPECT VEHICLE SPEED SENSOR OPERATION
(a) Connect the positive (+) lead from battery to terminal 1
and negative (-) lead to terminal 2.
(b) Connect the positive (+) lead from tester to terminal 3 and
negative (-) lead to terminal 2.
(c) Rotate shaft.
(d) Check that there is voltage change from approx. 0 V to 11
V or more between terminals 2 and 3.
HINT:
The voltage change should be 4 times for every revolution of
the speed sensor shaft.
If operation is not as specified, replace the sensor.
3. INSPECT TACHOMETER ON-VEHICLE
(a) Connect a tune-up test tachometer, and start the engine.
NOTICE:
Reversing the connection of the tachometer will damage
the transistors and diodes inside.
(b) Compare the tester and tachometer indications.
If error is excessive, replace the tachometer.

10. INSPECT ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE RE-
CEIVER GAUGE OPERATION
(a) Disconnect the connector from the sender gauge.
(b) Turn the ignition switch ON, check that the receiver gauge
needle indicates COOL.
(c) Ground terminal on the wire harness side connector
through a 3 W test bulb.
(d) Turn the ignition switch ON, check that the bulb lights up
and that the receiver gauge needle moves toward the hot
side.
If operation is as specified, replace the sender gauge.
Then recheck the system.
If operation is not as specified, measure the receiver gauge re-
sistance.
11. INSPECT ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE RE-
CEIVER GAUGE RESISTANCE
Measure the resistance between terminals.
HINT:
Connect the test leads so that the current from the ohmmeter
can flow according to the chart order.
Between terminalsResistance (W)
A - BApprox. 229.7
A - CApprox. 54.0
B - CApprox. 175.7
If resistance value is not as specified, replace the engine cool-
ant temperature receiver gauge.
12. INSPECT ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE SEND-
ER GAUGE RESISTANCE
Measure the resistance between terminal and gauge body.
Temperature °C (°F)Resistance (W)
50 (122.0)160 ~ 240
120 (248.0)17.1 ~ 21.2
If resistance value is not as specified, replace the engine cool-
ant temperature sender gauge.
