After installing vehicle harness connector in the actuator, make sure connector is securely locked.

When replacing ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit), calibrate Steering angle sensor neu-
tral position and Decel G sensor. Refer to BRC-6, "
ON-VEHICLE SERVICE" .
NOTE:

After performing above works, calibrate decel G-sensor (AWD model). Refer to BRC-6, "Calibration of
Decel G-sensor (AWD Model)" .

In the case that ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) are replaced, make sure to adjust position of
steering angle sensor. Refer to BRC-6, "
Adjustment of Steering Angle Sensor Neutral Position" .

COMBINATION METERS
Revision: 2004 November 2004 FX35/FX45
WATER TEMPERATURE GAUGE
The water temperature gauge indicates the engine coolant temperature.
ECM provides a water temperature signal to unified meter and A/C amp. with CAN communication line. Uni-
fied meter and A/C amp. provides a water temperature signal to combination meter for water temperature
gauge with communication line between unified meter and A/C amp. and combination meter.
TACHOMETER
The tachometer indicates engine speed in revolutions per minute (rpm).
ECM provides an engine speed signal to unified meter and A/C amp. with CAN communication line. Unified
meter and A/C amp. provides an engine speed signal to combination meter for tachometer with communica-
tion line between unified meter and A/C amp. and combination meter.
FUEL GAUGE
The fuel gauge indicates the approximate fuel level in the fuel tank.
The fuel gauge is regulated by a variable ground signal supplied

from unified meter and A/C amp. terminal 36

through the fuel level sensor unit and fuel pump (main) terminals 5 and 2, and

through the fuel level sensor unit (sub) terminals 2 and 1

to unified meter and A/C amp. terminal 28 for the fuel gauge.
Unified meter and A/C amp. provides an fuel level signal to combination meter for fuel gauge with communica-
tion line between unified meter and A/C amp. and combination meter.
SPEEDOMETER
ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) provides a vehicle speed signal to the unified meter and A/C amp.
with CAN communication line. After unified meter and A/C amp. received the vehicle speed signal, it changes
the signal to 8 pulse signal and provides the 8 pulse signal to the combination meter for the speedometer.
