Fuel Level Sensor Unit InspectionEKS00BC9
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.
1. CHECK SELF-DIAGNOSIS
Perform the combination meter self-diagnosis. Refer to DI-13, "
SELF-DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION" .
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 2.
NG >> Replace the combination meter. Refer to IP-13, "
Combination Meter" .
2. CHECK HARNESS CONNECTOR
1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
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: October 20052005 QX56
Trouble DiagnosesEKS00BCG
PRELIMINARY CHECK FOR THERMOMETER
1. COOL DOWN CHECK
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
2. Cool down the ambient sensor 2 with water or ice.
Does the indicated temperature drop?
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> The system is malfunctioning. Refer to DI-28, "
INSPECTION/COMPASS AND THERMOMETER"
.
2. WARM UP CHECK
1. Leave the vehicle for 10 minutes.
2. With the ignition switch in the ON position, disconnect and reconnect the ambient sensor 2 connector.
Does the indicated temperature rise?
YES >> The system is OK.
NO >> The system is malfunctioning. Refer to DI-28, "
INSPECTION/COMPASS AND THERMOMETER"
.
NOTE:
The indicated temperature on the thermometer is not readily affected by engine heat. It changes only when
one of the following conditions is present.

The temperature detected by the ambient sensor is lower than the indicated temperature on the thermom-
eter.

The vehicle speed is greater than 20 km/h (13 MPH).
(This is to prevent the indicated temperature from being affected by engine heat during low-speed driv-
ing.)

The ignition switch has been turned to the OFF position for more than 2 hours. (The engine is cold.)

IGNITION KEY WARNING CHIME
With the key inserted in the ignition switch, the ignition switch in OFF position, and the driver's door open, the
warning chime will sound.
Power is supplied

through key switch and key lock solenoid terminal 4

to BCM terminal 37.
Ground is supplied

to BCM terminal 47

through front door switch LH terminal 2.
Front door switch LH is case grounded.
BCM detects key inserted into the ignition switch, and sends key warning signal to combination meter via CAN
communication lines. When the combination meter receives key warning signal, it sounds warning chime.
LIGHT WARNING CHIME
With the key removed from the ignition switch, the driver's door open, and the lighting switch (part of the com-
bination switch) in 1st or 2nd position, the warning chime will sound. [Except when headlamp battery saver
control operates (5 minutes after ignition switch is turned to OFF or ACC position) and headlamps do not illu-
minate.]
Signal is supplied

from combination switch (lighting switch) terminals 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10

to BCM terminals 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 32, 33, 34, 35 and 36.
NOTE:
BCM detected lighting switch in 1st or 2nd position. Refer to BCS-3, "
COMBINATION SWITCH READING
FUNCTION" .
Ground is supplied

to BCM terminal 47

through front door switch LH terminal 2.
Front door switch LH is case grounded.
BCM detects headlamps are illuminated, and sends light warning signal to combination meter CAN communi-
cation lines. When the combination meter receives light warning signal, it sounds warning chime.
SEAT BELT WARNING CHIME
When the ignition switch is turned ON with the seat belt unfastened [seat belt buckle pre-tensioner assembly
(seat belt buckle switch) LH unfastened], warning chime will sound for approximately 6 seconds.
Ground is supplied

to combination meter terminal 27

through seat belt buckle pre-tensioner assembly (seat belt buckle switch) LH terminal 1.
Seat belt buckle pre-tensioner assembly (seat belt buckle switch) LH terminal 2 is grounded through body
grounds B7 and B19.
The combination meter sends seat belt buckle switch LH unfastened signal to BCM via CAN communication
line.
BCM receives seat belt buckle pre-tensioner assembly (seat belt buckle switch) LH unfastened signal from
combination meter via CAN communication line, and sends seat belt warning signal to the combination meter
via CAN communication line. When the combination meter receives the seat belt warning signal, it sounds the
warning chime. The BCM controls the (6 second) duration of the seat belt warning chime.
