Prizm (Fuel Gauge Reads "F" At All Times)

  1. Using an ohmmeter connected to ground, backprobe Brown wire in terminal No. 8 (Base and LSi) or terminal No. 1 (GSi) of 10-pin instrument cluster connector located behind left side of instrument panel. If more than 3 ohms are present, repair open in Brown ground wire.
  2. If less than 3 ohms are present, reconnect instrument cluster connector and disconnect fuel gauge sender connector. If fuel gauge indicates "E", replace fuel gauge sender.
  3. If fuel gauge continues to indicate "F", disconnect 10-pin instrument panel cluster connector. Connect an ohmmeter between terminal No. 2 (Yellow/Red wire) and ground. If less than infinite ohms are present, repair short to ground in Yellow/Red wire between instrument panel cluster and fuel gauge sender.
  4. If infinite ohms are present, check instrument panel cluster printed circuit for shorts or poor connections. If printed circuit is okay, replace fuel gauge.
