< SYMPTOM DIAGNOSIS >
THE FUEL GAUGE POINTER DOES NOT MOVE TO "F" WHEN REFUELING
THE FUEL GAUGE POINTER DOES NO T MOVE TO "F" WHEN REFUEL-
ING
DescriptionINFOID:0000000005146117
The fuel gauge needle will not move to “F” position when refueling.
Diagnosis ProcedureINFOID:0000000005146118
1.OBSERVE FUEL GAUGE
Does it take a long time for the pointer to move to FULL position?
YES or NO
YES >> GO TO 2
NO >> GO TO 3
2.IDENTIFY FUELING CONDITION
Was the vehicle fueled with the ignition switch ON?
YES or NO
YES >> Be sure to fuel the vehicle with the ignition switch OFF. Otherwise, it will take a long time to move to FULL position because of the c haracteristic of the fuel gauge.
NO >> GO TO 3
3.OBSERVE VEHICLE POSITION
Is the vehicle parked on an incline?
YES or NO
YES >> Check the fuel level indication with vehicle on a level surface.
NO >> GO TO 4
4.OBSERVE FUEL GAUGE POINTER
During driving, does the fuel gauge pointer move gradually toward EMPTY position?
YES or NO
YES >> Check the components. Refer to MWI-33, "Component Inspection".
NO >> The float arm may interfere or bind with any of the components in the fuel tank.

5. When the repair work is completed, return the ignition switch to the ″LOCK ″ position before connecting
the battery cables. (At this time, the steering lock mechanism will engage.)
6. Perform a self-diagnosis check of al l control units using CONSULT-III.
Precaution for Rear SuspensionINFOID:0000000005148126
• When installing the rubber bushings, the final tightening must be done under unladen condition and with the
tires on level ground. Oil will shorten the life of the rubber bushings, so wipe off any spilled oil immediately.
• Unladen condition means the fuel tank, engine coolant and lubricants are at the full specification. The spare
tire, jack, hand tools, and mats are in their designated positions.
• After installing suspension components, check the wheel alignment.
• Caulking nuts are not reusable. Always use new caulking nuts for installation. New caulking nuts are pre- oiled, do not apply any additional lubrication.

REAR SUSPENSION ASSEMBLY
On-Vehicle Inspection and ServiceINFOID:0000000005148129
Check all of the component mountings for any excessive looseness, or back lash. Check the components for
any excessive wear, damage, or abnormal conditions. Repair or replace the components as necessary.
SHOCK ABSORBER INSPECTION
• Check the shock absorbers for any air leaks or damage, and replace as necessary.
• Check the hoses for any air leaks or damage, and replace as necessary.
Wheel Alignment InspectionINFOID:0000000005148130
Rear Wheel Alignment Adjusting Bolts
PRELIMINARY INSPECTION
WARNING:
Always adjust the alignment with the vehicle on a flat surface. Use CONSULT-III “EXHAUST SOLE-
NOID” active test to release the air pressure from the rear load leveling air suspension system.
NOTE:
If alignment is out of specificat ion, inspect and replace any damaged or worn rear suspension parts before
making any adjustments.
1. Check and adjust the wheel alignment with the vehicle under unladen conditions. “Unladen conditions”
means that the fuel, coolant, and lubricant are full; and that the spare tire, jack, hand tools and mats are in
their designated positions.
2. Check the tires for incorrect air pressure and excessive wear.
3. Check the wheels for runout and damage. Refer to WT-47, "
Inspection" .
4. Check the wheel bearing axial end play.
5. Check the shock absorbers. Refer to RSU-15, "
Removal and Installation" .
6. Check each mounting point of the suspension components for any excessive looseness or damage.
7. Check each link, arm, and the rear suspension member for any damage.
8. Check the vehicle height. Refer to RSU-30, "
Wheelarch Height (Unladen*1)" .
