Fuel Sender Gauge Assembly (For Sedan): Inspection

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Toyota Yaris. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

INSPECT FUEL SENDER GAUGE ASSEMBLY

Check the fuel sender gauge resistance.

Check that the float moves smoothly between the F level (upper end) and the E level (lower end).

Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between connector terminals 2 (FS) and 1 (FE) at the upper and lower ends of the float. Check that the resistance varies uniformly.

Standard resistance

FUEL SENDER GAUGE RESISTANCE

Float Level	Resistance (Ω)
F (Upper End)	12.0 to 18.0
E (Lower End)	405.0 to 415.0

If the result is not as specified, replace the fuel sender gauge assembly.
