2. INSPECT SPEEDOMETER ON±VEHICLE
Using a speedometer tester, inspect the speedometer for allow-
able indication error and check the operation of the odometer.
HINT:
Tire wear and tire over or under inflation will increase the indica-
tion error.
If error is excessive, replace the speedometer.

3. INSPECT INPUT SPEED SIGNAL
While driving the vehicle at 10 km/h, measure the voltage be-
tween connector terminals A9 and A14 of the combination me-
ter.
Standard: Change between Hi and LO is repeated 7
time for 1 second.
HINT:
Check it the ignition switch ON and the connector connected.
4. INSPECT OUTPUT SPEED SIGNAL
While driving the vehicle at 10 km/h, measure the voltage be-
tween connector terminal A13 and A14 of the combination me-
ter.
Standard: Change between Hi and LO is repeated 7
time for 1 second.
HINT:
Check it the ignition switch ON and the connector connected.

5. INSPECT FUEL SENDER GAUGE VOLTAGE
Measure the voltage between terminals 1 and 6 for each fuel
level.
HINT:
The fuel sender gauge cannot be removed.
As the resistance value changes according to the remaining
fuel amount, refer to the above standard value.
Fuel levelResistance (W)
FullApprox. 430
HalfApprox. 1000 ± 2000
EmptyApprox. 5000
If resistance value is not as specified, replace the fuel tank.
If resistance value is as specified, replace the combination me-
ter.
6. INSPECT TEMPERATURE SENDER RESISTANCE
Measure the resistance between terminal 4 and 8
If the resistance value is not in the following area, replace fuel
tank.
1.5 ± 100 (W) at 0 ± 30°C
7. INSPECT LOW OIL PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT
(a) Disconnect the connector from the warning switch and
ground terminal of 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.
8. INSPECT LOW OIL PRESSURE SWITCH CONTINUITY
(a) Check that continuity exists between terminal and ground
with the engine stopped.
(b) 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.

9. INSPECT BRAKE WARNING SYSTEM LIGHT
(a) Disconnect the connector from the brake fluid warning
switch.
(b) Connect terminals of the wire harness side of the level
warning switch connector.
(c) 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.
10. INSPECT BRAKE FLUID LEVEL WARNING SWITCH
CONTINUITY
(a) Remove the reservoir tank cap and strainer.
(b) Disconnect the connector.
(c) Check that no continuity exists between 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 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.
11. INSPECT PARKING BRAKE WARNING LIGHT
(a) Disconnect the connector from the parking brake switch.
(b) Ground terminal of the wire harness side connector.
(c) Start the engine, check that the warning light lights up.
If the warning light does not light up, test the bulb or inspect wire
harness.
12. INSPECT PARKING BRAKE SWITCH CONTINUITY
(a) Check that continuity exists between terminal and switch
body with the switch ON (switch pin released).
(b) Check that no continuity exists between 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.
