COMBINATION METERS
Revision: November 20092006 QX56
POWER SUPPLY AND GROUND CIRCUIT
Power is supplied at all times

through 10A fuse [No.19, located in the fuse block (J/B)]

to combination meter terminal 8.
With the ignition switch in the ON or START position, power is supplied

through 10A fuse [No.14, located in the fuse block (J/B)]

to combination meter terminal 24.
With the ignition switch in the ACC or ON position, power is supplied

through 10A fuse [No.4, located in the fuse block (J/B)]

to combination meter terminal 1.
Ground is supplied

to combination meter terminal 17

through body grounds M57, M61 and M79.
WATER TEMPERATURE GAUGE
The water temperature gauge indicates the engine coolant temperature.
ECM provides an engine coolant temperature signal to combination meter via CAN communication lines.
ENGINE OIL PRESSURE GAUGE
The engine oil pressure gauge indicates the engine oil pressure.
The engine oil pressure gauge is regulated by the unified meter control unit and input from the oil pressure
sensor.
A/T OIL TEMPERATURE GAUGE
The A/T oil temperature gauge indicates the A/T fluid temperature.
TCM (transmission control module) provides an A/T fluid temperature signal to combination meter via CAN
communication lines.
V O LTA G E G A U G E
The voltage gauge indicates the battery/charging system voltage.
The voltage gauge is regulated by the unified meter control unit.
TACHOMETER
The tachometer indicates engine speed in revolutions per minute (rpm).
ECM provides an engine speed signal to combination meter via CAN communication lines.
FUEL GAUGE
The fuel gauge indicates the approximate fuel level in the fuel tank.
The fuel gauge is regulated by the unified meter control unit and a variable resistor signal supplied

to combination meter terminal 15.

through fuel level sensor unit and fuel pump terminal 2

through fuel level sensor unit and fuel pump terminal 5

from combination meter terminal 16
SPEEDOMETER
ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) provides a vehicle speed signal to the combination meter via CAN
communication lines.

Terminals And Reference Value For Sonar Control UnitEKS00BD5
How to Proceed With Trouble DiagnosisEKS00BD6
1. Confirm the symptom or customer complaint.
2. Understand operation description and function description. Refer to DI-61, "
System Description" .
3. Perform pre-diagnosis inspection. Refer to DI-66, "
Pre-diagnosis Inspection" .
4. Perform self-diagnosis. Refer to DI-66, "
Self-diagnosis Function" .
5. Perform the preliminary check. Refer to DI-68, "
Preliminary Check" .
6. Check symptom and repair or replace the cause of malfunction. Refer to DI-69, "
Symptom Chart" .
7. Does the rear sonar system operate properly? If so, go to 8. If not, go to 3.
8. Clear fault codes. Refer to DI-67, "
IDLING OR CLEARING FAULT CODES MODE" .
9. Inspection End.
