Fuel Receiver Gauge Malfunction [12/2012 - ]: Procedure

  1. PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING TECHSTREAM (FUEL METER OPERATION) 
    1. Using the Techstream, perform the Active Test:

      Refer to DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST [12/2012 - 10/2015] .

      Refer to DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST [10/2015 - 08/2016] .

      Refer to DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST [08/2016 - ] .

      Body Electrical > Combination Meter > Active Test

      OK

      Fuel receiver gauge indication is normal.

      Result Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result: 

    NG 

    REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY. 

    Refer to REMOVAL [12/2012 - ] .

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  2

  2. READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (FUEL INPUT) 
    1. Using the Techstream, read the Data List:

      Refer to DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST [12/2012 - 10/2015] .

      Refer to DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST [10/2015 - 08/2016] .

      Refer to DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST [08/2016 - ] .

      Body Electrical > Combination Meter > Data List 

      Tester Display Measurement Item Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      Fuel Input Fuel input signal Min.: 0 L, Max.: 127.5 L Current fuel level displayed -

      Body Electrical > Combination Meter > Data List 

      Tester Display
      Fuel Input
      Result Proceed to
      Fuel level data displayed on the Techstream is almost the same as the fuel receiver gauge indication. A
      Fuel level data displayed on the Techstream differs from the fuel receiver gauge indication. B

    Result: 

    REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY.  Refer to REMOVAL [12/2012 - ] .

    Result: 

    See step  3

  3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY - FUEL SENDER GAUGE ASSEMBLY) 
    1. Disconnect the G16 combination meter assembly connector.
    2. Disconnect the V2 fuel sender gauge assembly connector.
    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      G16-16 (L) - V2-1 (FS) Always Below 1 Ω
      G16-15 (E) - V2-2 (FE)
      G16-16 (L) or V2-1 (FS) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      G16-15 (E) or V2-2 (FE) - Body ground
      Result Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result: 

    NG 

    REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  4

  4. INSPECT FUEL SENDER GAUGE ASSEMBLY 
    1. Remove the fuel sender gauge assembly.

      Refer to REMOVAL [12/2012 - ] .

    2. Inspect the fuel sender gauge assembly.

      Refer to INSPECTION [12/2012 - ] .

      Result Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result: 

    OK 

    REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY.  Refer to REMOVAL [12/2012 - ] .

    Result: 

    NG 

    REPLACE FUEL SENDER GAUGE ASSEMBLY.  Refer to REMOVAL [12/2012 - ] .
