DTE Always Reads "0" Miles

  1. Remove instrument cluster. Check continuity of pin "16A" to fuel sending unit. If okay, go to next step. If not, repair open in circuit wiring as required.
  2. Measure fuel sending unit resistance between pin "16A" and pin "10A" (ground). With tank full, reading should be less than 5 ohms. With tank empty, reading should be greater than 140 ohms. If okay, replace fuel computer module. If not, repair circuit wiring or replace fuel sending unit.
