REMOVAL
WARNING:
Do not remove radiator cap when engine is hot. Serious burns could occur from high-pressure engine
coolant escaping from radiator. Wrap a thick cloth around radiator cap. Slowly turn it a quarter of a
turn to release built-up pressure. Carefully remove radiator cap by turning it all the way.
1. Remove engine cover with power tool. Refer to EM-173, "
ENGINE ROOM COVER" .
2. Remove engine front undercover with power tool.
3. Drain engine coolant from radiator. Refer to CO-38, "
Changing Engine Coolant" .
CAUTION:
Perform this step when engine is cold.
4. Remove air duct (inlet), air cleaner case and mass air flow sensor assembly. Refer to EM-177, "
AIR
CLEANER AND AIR DUCT" .
5. Remove radiator hoses (upper and lower). CAUTION:
Do not spill engine coolant on drive belts.

FUEL GAUGE
The fuel gauge indicates the approximate fuel level in the fuel tank.

Unified meter and A/C amp. reads a resistor signal from fuel level sensor.
Signal is 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 a fuel level signal to combination meter with communication line.

Combination meter indicates the approximate fuel level according to the fuel level signal.
ODO/TRIP METER

ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) provides a vehicle speed signal to the unified meter and A/C
amp. with CAN communication.

Unified meter and A/C amp. converts the vehicle speed signal to the 8-pulse signal, and outputs the vehi-
cle speed signal (8-pulse) to combination meter.

Combination meter uses the vehicle speed signal (8-pulse) to calculate the mileage, and displays it.
How to Change The Display For Odo/trip Meter
Switch modes with following procedure.

When trip transfer switch is pressed, trip meter display changes.

If trip reset switch is pressed for 1 second or more while “trip A”
is displayed, only “trip A” is reset.
NOTE:
The record of the odo meter is kept even if the battery cable is dis-
connected. The record of the trip meter is erased when the battery
cable is disconnected.
