Noise InspectionEKS007KK
The vehicle itself can be a source of noise if noise prevention parts or electrical equipment is malfunctioning.
Check if noise is caused and/or changed by engine speed, ignition switch turned to each position, and opera-
tion of each piece of electrical equipment, and determine the cause.
NOTE:
The source of the noise can be found easily by listening to the noise while removing the fuses of electrical
components, one by one.

Fuel Level Sensor Unit InspectionEKS007DZ
FUEL LEVEL SENSOR UNIT
The following symptoms do not indicate a malfunction.

Depending on vehicle position or driving circumstance, the fuel in the tank shifts and the indication may
fluctuate.

If the vehicle is fueled with the ignition switch ON, the indication will update slowly.

If the vehicle is tilted when the ignition switch is turned ON, fuel in the tank may flow to one direction
resulting in a change of reading.
LOW-FUEL WARNING LAMP
Depending on vehicle posture or driving circumstances, the fuel level in the tank varies, and the warning lamp
ON timing may be changed.

2. Check combination meter and fuel level sensor unit and fuel pump terminals (meter-side, and harness-
side) for poor connection.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 3.
NG >> Repair or replace terminals or connectors.
3. CHECK HARNESS CONNECTOR OUTPUT SIGNAL
1. Disconnect fuel level sensor unit and fuel pump connector.
2. Turn ignition switch ON.

Revision: August 20072004 QX56

Do not operate fuel pump when there is no fuel in lines.

Tighten fuel hose clamps to the specified torque.

Do not depress accelerator pedal when starting.

Immediately after starting, do not rev up engine unneces-
sarily.

Do not rev up engine just prior to shutdown.

When installing C.B. ham radio or a mobile phone, be sure
to observe the following as it may adversely affect elec-
tronic control systems depending on installation location.
–Keep the antenna as far as possible from the electronic
control units.
–Keep the antenna feeder line more than 20 cm (8 in) away
from the harness of electronic controls.
Do not let them run parallel for a long distance.
–Adjust the antenna and feeder line so that the standing-
wave radio can be kept smaller.
–Be sure to ground the radio to vehicle body.
