Inspection Procedure
- PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING INTELLIGENT TESTER OR TECHSTREAM (FUEL RECEIVER GAUGE)
- Connect an intelligent tester or a Techstream to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch on (IG) and turn the tester ON.
- Operate the intelligent tester or Techstream according to the display and select "ACTIVE TEST" or "Active Test" (See DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST
).
- Intelligent tester

OK : REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY (See REMOVAL )
- INSPECT FUEL SENDER GAUGE ASSEMBLY
- Remove the fuel sender gauge assembly.
- Check that the float position is between E and F.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard resistance
TESTER CONNECTION SPECIFIED CONDITION CHARTTester Connection Condition Specified Condition 1 - 2 Float level is F 13.5 to 16.5 Ω 1 - 2 Float level is 1/2 195.3 to 221.3 Ω 1 - 2 Float level is E 405.5 to 414.5 Ω - Reinstall the fuel sender gauge assembly.
NG : REPLACE FUEL SENDER GAUGE ASSEMBLY (See REMOVAL )
OK: Go to next step
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (COMBINATION METER - FUEL SENDER GAUGE)
- Disconnect the C37 combination meter assembly connector.
- Disconnect the H13 fuel sender gauge assembly.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below
Standard resistance
TESTER CONNECTION SPECIFIED CONDITION CHARTTester Connector Condition Specified Condition C37-17 (L) - H13-2 Always Below 1 Ω C37-22 (E) - H13-3 Always Below 1 Ω C37-24 (ET) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω C37-17 (L) or H13-2 - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher C37-22 (E) or H13-3 - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher - Reconnect the fuel sender gauge assembly connector.
- Reconnect the combination meter assembly connector.
NG : REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK : REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY (See REMOVAL )
