Inspection [10/2018 - ]: Procedure
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2024 Lexus UX 250h, 2023 Lexus UX 250h, 2022 Lexus UX 250h, 2021 Lexus UX 250h, and 2020 Lexus UX 250h. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- INSPECT FUEL SENDER GAUGE ASSEMBLY WARNING:
Perform the inspection in a well-ventilated area.
Do not perform the inspection near an open flame.
- Check that the float moves smoothly between F and E.
- Check the fuel sender gauge assembly voltage.
- Apply 5 V between terminals 2 and 3.NOTE:
- Be careful when connecting the leads, as the fuel sender gauge assembly may be damaged if the leads are connected to the wrong terminals.
- Do not apply more than 6 V to terminals 2 or 3.
HINT:
If a stable power supply is not available, connect 4 nickel-metal hydride batteries (1.2 V each) or equivalent in series.
*a Component without harness connected
(Fuel Sender Gauge Assembly)*b Voltage Applied between Terminals - Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
*a Component without harness connected
(Fuel Sender Gauge Assembly)Standard Voltage
Tester Connection Float Level Specified Condition 1 - 2 F 4.255 to 4.605 V* Between F and E 0.345 to 4.605 V* (Gradually changes) E 0.345 to 0.695 V* *: The output voltage changes depending on the voltage applied to the terminals.
Output voltage (F) = (0.851 x Voltage applied to terminals) to (0.921 x Voltage applied to terminals)
Output voltage (E) = (0.069 x Voltage applied to terminals) to (0.139 x Voltage applied to terminals)
If the result is not as specified, replace the fuel sender gauge assembly.
- Apply 5 V between terminals 2 and 3.
