DIAGNOSIS/TROUBLESHOOTING - FAULT CODE 9122

Work instruction Display OK If not OK
1 Check sensor for fuel level
  • Switch off ignition
  • Pull plug off sensor for fuel level
  • Measure resistance on sensor for fuel level (pin side) between pin 2 and pin 3
Depending on tank contents between 10 and 310
Step 2
Step 6
2 Check output voltage of the instrument cluster
  • Switch on ignition
  • Measure voltage on plug of sensor for fuel level between pin 2 and pin 3
approx. 5 V
Step 6
Step 3
3 Check wiring between sensor for fuel level and instrument cluster for short to ground
  • Switch off ignition
  • Disconnect plug B from the instrument cluster
  • Measure resistance on plug B of the instrument cluster between pin 4 and ground
  • Measure resistance on plug B of the instrument cluster between pin 20 and ground
Step 4 Repair wiring harness
-> End
4 Check wiring between sensor for fuel level and instrument cluster for short to B+
  • Switch on ignition
  • Measure voltage on plug B of instrument cluster between pin 4 and battery ground
  • Measure voltage on plug B of instrument cluster between pin 20 and battery ground
0 V
Step 5
Repair wiring harness
-> End
5 Check wiring between sensor for fuel level and instrument cluster for contact resistance and open circuit
  • Switch off ignition
  • Measure resistance between plug B on the instrument cluster pin 4 and plug on the sensor for fuel level, pin 2
  • Measure resistance between plug B on the instrument cluster pin 20 and plug on the sensor for fuel level, pin 3
< 5
Step 7
Repair wiring harness.
-> End
6
  • Connect the plug on instrument cluster A pin 13 and the fuel supply sensor plug again.
  • Delete fault memory and check whether the fault appears again.
  • If so, replace the sensor for fuel level
-> End
7
  • Replace instrument cluster
-> End
