7. CHECK FUEL LEVEL SENSOR.
Step Check Yes No
1CHECK COMMUNICATION ERROR DIS-
PLAY.
1) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
2) Check that the error code is displayed in
odo/trip meter.
Is the error code “Er xx” dis-
played in odo/trip meter?
Check the commu-
nication circuit.

2CHECK FUEL LEVEL SENSOR.
1) Remove the fuel level sensor. FU(H6DO)-45, REMOVAL, Fuel Level Sen-
sor.>
2) Measure the resistance between fuel level
sensor terminals when the float is in FULL or
EMPTY position.
Te r m i n a l s
No. 1 — No. 4:
Is the resistance 1.0 to 3.0 Ω
(FULL) and 31 to 33 Ω
(EMPTY)?
Go to step 3.Replace the fuel
level sensor.
3CHECK FUEL SUB LEVEL SENSOR.
1) Remove the fuel sub level sensor. FU(H6DO)-46, REMOVAL, Fuel Sub Level
Sensor.>
2) Measure the resistance between fuel sub
level sensor terminals when the float is in
FULL or EMPTY position.
Te r m i n a l s
No. 1 — No. 2:
Is the resistance 1.0 to 3.0 Ω
(FULL) and 61 to 63 Ω
(EMPTY)?
Go to step 4.Replace the fuel
sub level sensor.
4CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN FUEL SUB-
LEVEL SENSOR AND BODY INTEGRATED
MODULE.
1) Disconnect the connector from body inte-
grated unit.
2) Measure the resistance between fuel sub
level sensor harness connector terminal and
body integrated unit harness connector termi-
nal.
Connector & terminal
(R59) No. 1 — (B281) No. 19:
Is the resistance less than 10
Ω?
Go to step 5.Repair the wiring
harness.
5CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN FUEL LEVEL
SENSOR AND FUEL SUB LEVEL SENSOR.
Measure the resistance between fuel level sen-
sor harness connector terminal and fuel sub
level sensor harness connector terminal.
Connector & terminal
(R58) No. 1 — (R59) No. 2:
Is the resistance less than 10
Ω?
Go to step 6.Repair the wiring
harness.
6CHECK FUEL LEVEL SENSOR GROUND
CIRCUIT.
Measure the resistance between fuel level sen-
sor harness connector terminal and chassis
ground.
Connector & terminal
(R58) No. 4 — Chassis ground:
Is the resistance less than 10
Ω?
Replace the meter
case assembly.
Repair the wiring
harness.

A: REMOVAL
1) Disconnect the ground cable from battery.
2) Remove the air intake duct.
3) Remove the engine front cover.
4) Disengage the three clips, and then turn over the
mud guard.
5) Remove the three bolts securing the headlight
assembly from the lower side of vehicle.
6) Remove the two bolts and then remove the
headlight assembly.
7) Disconnect the connector and then detach the
rear headlight assembly.

C: ADJUSTMENT
1. HEADLIGHT AIMING
NOTE:
Aiming of this headlight can be adjusted only in the
vertical direction. It cannot be adjusted in the hori-
zontal direction.
CAUTION:
Turn off the light before adjusting the headlight
beam level. If it is necessary to inspect the
beam level, do not turn on the lamp for more
than two minutes.
NOTE:
Before checking the headlight beam level, be sure
of the following:
•Check the area around the headlight for any
scratches, damage or other type of deformation.
•Make sure that the vehicle is parked on a level
surface.
•Make sure that the inflation pressure of tires are
correct.
•Check that the vehicle fuel tank is full.
1) Bounce the vehicle several times to normalize
the suspension.
2) Make certain that someone is seated in the driv-
er's seat.
