Nominal Resistance Of The Fuel Level Sensor

When float of the fuel level sensor is in stopper positions F and E, ensure that resistance between the fuel level sensor terminal and ground terminal is within the standard value.

Standard value: 

FLOAT POSITION AND RESISTANCE VALUE

Float position Gauge resistance value (Ω)
Stopper position "F" 13.0 ± 1.0
Stopper position "E" 120.0 ± 1.0

When the float is moved slowly between stopper positions "F" and "E", ensure that the resistance is smoothly changing.
