13. INSPECT LOW OIL PRESSURE SWITCH CONTINUITY
(a) Check that there is continuity between terminal and
ground with the engine stopped.
(b) Check that there is no continuity between terminal and
ground with the engine running.
HINT:
Oil pressure should be over 29 kPa (0.3 kgf/cm
2, 4.3 psi)
If operation is not as specified, replace the switch.
14. INSPECT LOW OIL PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT
(a) Disconnect the connector from the warning switch and
ground terminal on the wire harness side connector.
(b) Turn the ignition switch ON, check that the warning light
lights up.
If the warning light does not light up, test the bulb or inspect wire
harness.
15. INSPECT ENGINE OIL LEVEL WARNING SWITCH
CONTINUITY
(a) Check that there is continuity between terminal with the
switch in each position.
(b) Heat the switch to above 60°C (140°F) in an oil bath.
(c) Check that there is continuity between terminals with the
switch ON (float up).
(d) Check that there is no continuity between terminals with
the switch OFF (float down).
If operation is not as specified, replace the switch.
16. INSPECT ENGINE OIL LEVEL WARNING LIGHT
(a) Disconnect the connector from the switch.
(b) Ground terminal 1 on the wire harness connector.
(c) Turn the ignition switch ON. Check that the warning light
lights up approximately 40 seconds later.
If the warning light does not light up, inspect bulb or wire har-
ness.

COOLANT
INSPECTION
1. CHECK ENGINE COOLANT LEVEL AT RADIATOR RESERVOIR
The engine coolant level should be between the ºLOWº and ºFULLº lines, when the engine is cold.
If low, check for leaks and add engine coolant up to the ºFULLº line.
2. CHECK ENGINE COOLANT QUALITY
(a) Remove the radiator cap.
CAUTION:
To avoid the danger of being burned, do not remove the radiator cap while the engine and radiator
are still hot, as fluid and steam can be blown out under pressure.
(b) There should not be any excessive deposits of rust or scale around the radiator cap or radiator filler
hole, and the coolant should be free from oil.
If excessively dirty, replace the coolant.
(c) Reinstall the radiator cap.
