Fuel Receiver Gauge Malfunction: Procedure

  1. CHECK CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM 
    1. Check if CAN communication DTC is output. Refer to DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM .
      RESULT

      Result Proceed to
      CAN communication DTC is not output A
      CAN communication DTC is output B

    B → See step   9 

    A: Go to next step 

  2. CHECK MULTIPLEX COMMUNICATION SYSTEM 
    1. Check if Multiplex communication DTC is output. Refer to DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM .
      RESULT

      Result Proceed to
      Multiplex communication DTC is not output A
      Multiplex communication DTC is output B

    B → See step   10 

    A: Go to next step 

  3. PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING TECHSTREAM (FUEL METER OPERATION) 
    1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
    2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).
    3. Turn the Techstream on.
    4. Enter following menus: Body Electrical / Combination Meter / Active Test.
    5. Check the operation by referring to the table below.
      COMBINATION METER

      Tester Display Test Part Control Range Diagnostic Note
      Fuel Meter Operation Fuel receiver gauge EMPTY, 1/2, FULL Confirm that the vehicle is stopped, engine idling

      OK

      Fuel receiver gauge indication is normal.

    NG → See step   11 

    OK: Go to next step 

  4. READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (FUEL INPUT) 
    1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
    2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).
    3. Turn the Techstream on.
    4. Enter following menus: Body Electrical / Combination Meter / Data List.
    5. Check the values by referring to the table below.
      COMBINATION METER

      Tester Display Measurement Item/Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      Fuel Input Fuel input signal Min.: 0, Max.: 255 Fuel gauge indicates (E): 206 -
      Fuel gauge indicates (1/2): 148
      Fuel gauge indicates (F): 48

      OK

      Fuel value signal displayed on the Techstream is almost the same as fuel receiver gauge indication.

    NG → See step   11 

    OK: Go to next step 

  5. INSPECT FUEL SENDER GAUGE ASSEMBLY 
    1. Disconnect the P10 and Q14 connectors.

    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance: Fuel Sender Gauge Assembly (Main)

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      Q14-2 (S) - Q14-3 (FE) Always 6.5 to 229.6 Ω

      Standard Resistance: Fuel Sender Gauge Assembly (Sub)

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      P10-1 (FS) - P10-2 (E) Always 6.5 to 184.9 Ω

    NG → See step   12 

    OK: Go to next step 

  6. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (COMBINATION METER - FUEL SENDER GAUGE ASSEMBLY) 
    1. Disconnect the J34 connector.

    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      J34-19 (FR) - Q14-2 (S) Always Below 1 Ω
      Q14-3 (FE) - P10-1 (FS) Always Below 1 Ω
      P10-2 (E) - J34-2 (FE) Always Below 1 Ω
      Q14-2 (S) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      P10-1 (FS) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      J34-2 (FE) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher

    NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    OK: Go to next step 

  7. INSPECT FUEL SENDER GAUGE ASSEMBLY 
    1. Disconnect the fuel sender gauge connector.

      GTY143578Courtesy of © TOYOTA, LICENSE AGREEMENT TMS1002
    2. Inspect the fuel sender gauge assembly (main).
      1. Remove the fuel sender gauge assembly (main) with harness connected.
      2. Check that the float moves smoothly between F and E.
      3. Measure the resistance between the terminals 1 (FE) and 2 (S) of the connector according to the value(s) in the table below.

        Standard Resistance (Fuel Sender Gauge Assembly (Main))

        Float Level Resistance (Ω)
        F 6.5 to 8.5
        Between E and F 6.5 to 229.6 (Gradually changes)
        E 224.6 to 229.6
    3. Inspect the fuel sender gauge assembly (sub).
      1. Remove the fuel sender gauge assembly (sub).
      2. Check that the float moves smoothly between F and E.
