1) Check voltage between terminal E61-28 and
ground with ignition switch ON.
Is it about 7.1 V or more?Go to Step 4. Intermittent trouble or
faulty ECM (PCM).
Check for intermittent
referring to “INTERMIT-
TENT AND POOR CON-
NECTION” in Section

level meter malfunction.Go to Step 5.
5 Check Fuel Level Sensor:
1) Turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect fuel
level sensor connector (L15 – R01).
2) Check for proper connection to fuel level
sensor at L15-4 and L15-3 terminals.
3) If OK, then check resistance between R01-4
and R01-3 terminals. (Refer to “FUEL LEVEL
GAUGE (SENDER GAUGE)” in Section 8C.)
Is value close to one of above values indicated?“BLU/WHT” or “BLK/YEL”
circuit open.
If wire and connection are
OK, substitute a known-
good ECM (PCM) and
recheck.Check “BLU/WHT” and
“BLK/YEL” wires
between R01 and R02
connections.
