4 CHECK HARNESS. Turn the ignition switch to OFF. Disconnect the combination meter connector. Using the tester, measure the voltage between terminals. Connector & terminal (i10) No. 20 (+) - Chassis ground (-): (i10) No. 40 (+) - Chassis ground (-):	Is the voltage 8.5 - 16.5 V?	Go to step 5.	Repair the open circuit of harness or replace harness.
5 CHECK CONNECTOR. Turn the ignition switch to OFF. Disconnect connectors.	Is there poor contact of connector?	Repair or replace the poor contact of connector.
