HINT:
Connect the test leads so that the current from the ohmmeter
can flow according to the above order.
If resistance value is not as specified, replace the receiver
gauge.
11. INSPECT ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE SEND-
ER GAUGE RESISTANCE
Measure the resistance between the terminal and gauge body.

If resistance value is not as specified, replace the engine cool-
ant temperature sender gauge.
12. INSPECT LOW OIL PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT
(a) Disconnect the connector from the warning switch and

13. INSPECT LOW OIL PRESSURE SWITCH
(a) Disconnect the connector from the switch.
(b) Check that continuity exists between terminal and ground
with the engine stopped.
(c) Check that no continuity exists between terminal and
ground with the engine running.
HINT:
Oil pressure should be over 24.5 kPa (0.25 kgf/cm
2, 3.55 psi).
If operation is not as specified, replace the switch.
14. INSPECT BRAKE SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT
(a) Disconnect the connector from the brake fluid warning
switch.
(b) Release the parking brake pedal.
(c) Connect the terminals on the wire harness side of the lev-
el warning switch connector.
(d) Start the engine, check that the warning light lights up.
If the warning light does not light up, test the bulb or wire har-
ness.
15. INSPECT BRAKE FLUID LEVEL WARNING SWITCH
(a) Remove the reservoir tank cap and strainer.
(b) Disconnect the connector.
(c) Check that no continuity exists between the terminals with
the switch OFF (float up).
(d) Use syphon, etc. to take fluid out of the reservoir tank.
(e) Check that continuity exists between the terminals with
the switch ON (float down).
(f) Pour the fluid back in the reservoir tank.
If operation is not as specified, replace the switch.
16. INSPECT PARKING BRAKE SWITCH
(a) Check that continuity exists between the terminal and
switch body with the switch ON (switch pin released).
(b) Check that no continuity exists between the terminal and
switch body with the switch OFF (switch pin pushed in).
If operation is not as specified, replace the switch or inspect
ground point.
17. INSPECT WASHER FLUID LEVEL WARNING LIGHT
(a) Disconnect the connectors from the level warning switch
and parking brake switch.
(b) Connect terminals on the wire harness side connector of
the level warning switch connector.
(c) Remove the GAUGE fuse and turn the ignition switch ON,
and check that the warning light comes on.
If the warning light does not light up, test the bulb.

INSPECT MIRROR DEFOGGER
(a) Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal
4 and the negative (±) lead to terminal 6.
(b) Check that the mirror becomes warm.
HINT:
It takes short time for the mirror to become warm.
6. INSPECT DEFOGGER WIRE
NOTICE:

When cleaning the glass, use a soft, dry cloth, and
wipe the glass in the direction of the wire. Take care
not to damage the wires.

Do not use detergents or glass cleaners with abrasive
ingredients.

When measuring voltage, wind a piece of tin foil
around the top of the negative probe and press the foil
against the wire with your finger, as shown.
(a) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(b) Turn the defogger switch ON.
(c) Inspect the voltage at the center of each heat wire, as
shown.
VoltageCriteria
Approx. 5VOkay (No break in wire)
Approx.10V or 0VBroken wire
HINT:
If there is approximately 10 V, the wire is broken between the
center of the wire and the positive (+) end. If there is no voltage,
the wire is broken between the center of the wire and ground.
(d) Place the voltmeter positive (+) lead against the defogger
positive (+) terminal.
(e) Place the voltmeter negative (±) lead with the foil strip
against the heat wire at the positive (+) terminal end and
slide it toward the negative (±) terminal end.
(f) The point where the voltmeter deflects from zero to sever-
al V is the place where the heat wire is broken.
HINT:
If the heat wire is not broken, the voltmeter indicates 0 V at the
positive (+) end of the heat wire but gradually increases to about
12 V as the meter probe is moved to the other end.

(b) Matlers that require attention when checking:

Noise coming into the radio usually has no harm for
practical use as the noise protection is taken and it
is hardly thinkable for an extremely loud noise to
come in. When extremely loud noise comes into the
radio, check if the grounding is normal where the
antenna is installed.

Check if all the regular noise prevention parts are
properly installed and if there is any installation of
non±authorized parts and non±authorized wiring.

If you leave the radio out of tune (not tuning), it is
easy to diagnose the phenomenon as noise occurs
frequently.
(c) Antenna and noise:
Electronic signal received by the antenna will reach to the
radio transmitting through the core wire of the coaxial
cable. Any noise wave other than radio wave is mixed into
this core wire, that naturally causes noise in the radio and
poor sound quality. In order to prevent these noises from
mixing into the radio, the core wire inside the coaxial cable
is covered with a mesh wire called shield wire. This shield
wire shelters the noise and transmits it to the ground, thus
preventing noise from mixing in. If this shield wire has
grounding failure, that causes noise.
(d) Choke coil and noise:
The choke coil is connected in the rear window defogger
circuit. This is conneted so to prevent noise from mixing
into the radio by making the noise current included in the
power source of the rear window defogger flow to the
ground.
