tion indicator light
illuminates, the cir-
cuit has returned to
a normal condition
at this time. A tem-
porary poor contact
of the connector
may be the cause.

cord and chassis
ground.
N
OTE:
In this case repair
the following:
Poor contact in
coupling connector
6 CHECK FUEL TANK CORD.
1) Disconnect the connector from fuel level
sensor.
2) Measure the resistance between fuel level
sensor and coupler connector.
