FUEL GAUGE
CAUTION: Gauge coils can be damaged if wire is grounded for too long.
Perform test as quickly as possible.
Simple Test
1) Disconnect fuel gauge sending unit connector wire in
luggage compartment, in cargo space or at tank unit. Connect a 12-
volt, 3.4-watt bulb to harness side of connector between appropriate
terminals. See Fig. 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 or 9.
2) Turn ignition switch to ON position. Ensure test bulb
flashes, or stays on, and fuel gauge needle moves. If bulb or gauge
needle does not function as described, repair fuel gauge circuit.

necessary. If connector is okay, check circuit between multi-meter
assembly harness connector and ignition switch. See WIRING DIAGRAMS.
Repair as necessary. If circuit is okay, go to next step.
7) Turn ignition off. Check continuity between ground and
multi-meter assembly harness-side connector terminal No. 3 (Black
wire). If continuity is present, problem is intermittent. If
continuity is not present, go to next step.
8) Check harness connector to multi-meter assembly. Repair as
necessary. If connector is okay, check circuit (Black wire) between
multi-meter assembly harness connector and ground. See WIRING DIAGRAMS
. Repair as necessary. If circuit is okay, problem is intermittent.
Gauge Sending Unit Resistance Test (Montero Sport)
Disconnect harness connector to oil pressure sending unit.
Start and idle engine. Check resistance between oil pressure gauge
sending unit terminal and engine block. Resistance should be about 2
ohms. Replace sending unit if resistance is not as specified.
REED SWITCH
Continuity Check (Montero)
1) Remove instrument cluster. See INSTRUMENT CLUSTER under
REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. Check continuity between reed switch terminals
No. 1 and 2. See Fig. 20.

1) Front HO2S is mounted in exhaust pipe below exhaust
header. Rear HO2S is mounted behind catalytic converter. HO2S is
equipped with a permanent pigtail which must be protected from damage
when HO2S is removed. Ensure HO2S is free of contaminants. Avoid using
cleaning solvents of any type.
2) HO2S may be difficult to remove when engine temperature is

INTERMITTENT PARASITIC LOAD PROBLEMS
Intermittent parasitic lad can occur because of a memory
device that does not power down with ignition off. With an
intermittent parasitic load, battery draw can be greater than 1.0 amp.
To find and intermittent problem requires that an ammeter and
Disconnect Tool (J-38758) test switch be connected and left in the
circuit. See Fig. 1. Road test vehicle. After road test, turn ignition
off and remove key.
Monitor the milliamps scale for 15-20 minutes after ignition
is turned off. This allows monitoring memory devices to determine if
they time out and stop drawing memory current. The test switch is
needed to protect ammeter when the vehicles is started.
