INSPECTION/THERMAL TRANSMITTER
CHECK THERMAL TRANSMITTER.
Refer to ``THERMAL TRANSMITTER
CHECK'' (EL-115).
OK
cNG
Repair or replace.
CHECK HARNESS FOR OPEN OR
SHORT.
1. Disconnect combination connector and
thermal transmitter connector.
2. Check continuity between combination
meter terminalj
47and thermal transmit-
ter terminalj
1.
Continuity should exist.
3. Check continuity between combination
meter terminalj
47and ground.
Continuity should not exist.
OK
cNG
Repair harness or connec-
tor.
Thermal transmitter is OK.

METER/GAUGE RESISTANCE CHECK
1. Disconnect FPC connector. Refer to ``Flexible Print Circuit
(FPC)'' (EL-109).
2. Check resistance between installation screws of meter/gauge.

FUEL WARNING LAMP SENSOR CHECK
+It will take a short time for the bulb to light.
NOTE: Inspection for sub fuel warning lamp sensor is the
same as for fuel warning lamp sensor.
OIL PRESSURE SWITCH CHECK
Oil pressure

Engine startMore than 10 - 20
(0.10 - 0.20, 0.1 - 0.2,1-3)NO
Engine stopLess than 10 - 20
(0.10 - 0.20, 0.1 - 0.2,1-3)YES
Check the continuity between the terminals of oil pressure switch
and body ground.
DIODE CHECK
+Check continuity using an ohmmeter.
+Diode is functioning properly if test results are as shown in the
®gure at left.
NOTE: Speci®cation may vary depending on the type of tester.
Before performing this inspection, be sure to refer to
the instruction manual for the tester to be used.
+Diodes for warning lamps are built into the combination meter
printed circuit.
