Circuit Test (Montero Sport)

  1. Remove instrument cluster. See INSTRUMENT CLUSTER  under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. Disconnect instrument cluster harness connector. Connect voltmeter between ground and instrument cluster harness-side connector terminal No. 14 (White wire). Start and idle engine. Voltmeter should read about 5 volts. If voltage is as specified, problem is intermittent. If voltage is not as specified, go to next step.
  2. Check instrument cluster harness connector. Repair as necessary. If connector is okay, go to next step on 2.4L engines or step  7 on 3.0L engines.
  3. Check noise filter harness connector (located behind instrument cluster). Repair as necessary. If connector is okay, go to next step.
  4. Check circuit between instrument cluster harness connector and noise filter connector. See WIRING DIAGRAMS . Repair as necessary. If circuit is okay, go to next step.
  5. Remove noise filter (located near throttle position sensor harness). Check resistance between noise filter terminals. Resistance should be 1760-2640 ohms. If resistance is not as specified, replace noise filter. If resistance is as specified, go to next step.
  6. Check joint connector behind right side of dash. Repair as necessary. If connector is okay, check circuit between joint connector and instrument cluster harness connector. See WIRING DIAGRAMS . Repair as necessary. If circuit is okay, go to next step.
  7. Check voltage between ground and instrument cluster harness-side connector terminal No. 24 (Black/White wire). If battery voltage is present, problem is intermittent. If battery voltage is not present, go to next step.
  8. Check harness connector to instrument cluster. Repair as necessary. If connector is okay, check circuit between instrument cluster and ignition switch. See WIRING DIAGRAMS . Repair as necessary. If circuit is okay, go to next step.
  9. Check circuit between ground and instrument cluster harness-side connector terminal No. 13 (Black wire). If continuity is present, problem is intermittent. If continuity is not present, check harness connector to instrument cluster and to chassis ground. See WIRING DIAGRAMS . Repair as necessary. If connectors are okay, replace speedometer.
