Fuel Receiver Gauge Malfunction: Procedure

1. Check if a 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 

1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
2. Turn the power 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 with the power switch on (READY)

   OK

   Fuel receiver gauge indication is normal.

NG → See step   7 

OK: Go to next step 

1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
2. Turn the power 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.: 127.5 (L)	Fuel receiver gauge indicates F: 49.1 (L)	-
   		Fuel receiver gauge indicates 1/2: 28.3 (L)
   		Fuel receiver gauge indicates E: 6.5 (L)

   OK

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

NG → See step   7 

OK: Go to next step 

1. Disconnect the F4 and L13 connectors.
2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

   Standard Resistance

   Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
   F4-27 (L) - L13-2 (FS)	Always	Below 1 Ω
   F4-30 (FE) - L13-3 (FE)	Always	Below 1 Ω
   F4-27 (L) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher
   F4-30 (FE) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher

NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

OK: Go to next step 

1. Remove the fuel sender gauge assembly. Refer to REMOVAL .

2. Check that the float moves smoothly between F and E.
3. Check if the fuel sender gauge arm is deformed.
4. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

   Standard Resistance

   Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
   1 - 2	Float level is F (upper)	13.5 to 16.5 Ω
   1 - 2	Float level is between F (upper) and E (lower)	13.5 to 414.5 Ω (Gradually changes)
   1 - 2	Float level is E (lower)	405.5 to 414.5 Ω

NG → See step   8 

OK: Go to next step 

1. Visually check for deformation on the fuel suction pump and gauge assembly connector.

   OK

   There is no deformation.

NG → See step   10 

OK → See step   7
