Fuel Receiver Gauge Malfunction: Procedure
- CHECK CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
- Check if a CAN communication DTC is output.
- w/ Smart Key System:, refer to DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM
- w/o Smart Key System:, refer to DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM
RESULTResult Proceed to CAN communication DTC is not output A CAN communication DTC is output (w/ Smart Key System) B CAN communication DTC is output (w/o Smart Key System) C
B → See step 8
C → See step 13
A: Go to next step
- Check if a CAN communication DTC is output.
- PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING TECHSTREAM (FUEL METER OPERATION)
- Use the Active Test to check the operation of the fuel receiver gauge, refer to DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST
.COMBINATION METER
Tester Display Test Part Control Range Diagnostic Note Fuel Meter Operation Fuel receiver gauge Empty, 1/2, Full Confirm that the vehicle is stopped, engine idling. OK
Fuel receiver gauge indication is normal.
NG → See step 9
OK: Go to next step
- Use the Active Test to check the operation of the fuel receiver gauge, refer to DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST
.
- READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (FUEL INPUT)
- Use the Data List to check if the fuel receiver gauge is operating properly, refer to DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST
.COMBINATION METER
Tester Display Measurement Item/Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note Fuel Input Fuel input signal/Min.: 0, Max.: 127.5 Fuel gauge indicates (E): 6.8 (L)
Fuel gauge indicates (1/2): 32.4 (L)
Fuel gauge indicates (F): 58.3 (L)- OK
Fuel level signal displayed on the Techstream is almost the same as the fuel receiver gauge indication.
NG → See step 10
OK: Go to next step
- Use the Data List to check if the fuel receiver gauge is operating properly, refer to DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST
.
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (COMBINATION METER - FUEL SUCTION PLATE SUB-ASSEMBLY)
- Disconnect the E1 meter connector.
- Disconnect the k2 fuel suction plate connector.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition E1-34 (FR) - k2-2 Always Below 1 Ω E1-19 (FE) - k2-3 Always Below 1 Ω E1-34 (FR) - E1-19 (FE) Always 10 kΩ or higher E1-34 (FR) or k2-2 - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK: Go to next step
- INSPECT FUEL SUCTION PLATE SUB-ASSEMBLY

- Remove the fuel suction plate sub-assembly, refer to REMOVAL .
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition A-2 (FS) - B-2 Always Below 1 Ω A-3 (FE) - B-1
NG → See step 11
OK: Go to next step
- INSPECT FUEL SENDER GAUGE ASSEMBLY
- Remove the fuel sender gauge assembly, refer to REMOVAL .
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition 1 - 2 Float position F (upper) 13.5 to 16.5 Ω Float position E (lower) 405.5 to 414.5 Ω
NG → See step 12
OK → See step 7
