Fuel Receiver Gauge Malfunction [08/2015 - 08/2019]: Procedure
- CHECK CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
- Check if a CAN communication DTC is output. (Refer to DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM [08/2015 - 08/2019]
).RESULT
Result Proceed to CAN communication DTC is not output A CAN communication DTC is output B
Result:
B
GO TO CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
(Refer to HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING [08/2015 - 08/2019] )
Result:
A
See step 2
- Check if a CAN communication DTC is output. (Refer to DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM [08/2015 - 08/2019]
).
- 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 [08/2015 - 08/2019]
).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 with the engine idling. OK
Fuel receiver gauge indication is normal.
Result:
NG
REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY
(Refer to REMOVAL [08/2015 - 08/2022] )
Result:
OK
See step 3
- Use the Active Test to check the operation of the fuel receiver gauge. (Refer to DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST [08/2015 - 08/2019]
).
- 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 [08/2015 - 08/2019]
).COMBINATION METER
Tester Display Measurement Item/Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note Fuel Input Fuel input signal/Min.: 0, Max.: 127.5 Current fuel level displayed Unit: Liters OK
Fuel level signal displayed on the Techstream is almost the same as fuel receiver gauge indication.
Result:
NG
REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY
Result:
OK
See step 4
- Use the Data List to check if the fuel receiver gauge is operating properly. (Refer to DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST [08/2015 - 08/2019]
).
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (COMBINATION METER - FUEL SUCTION WITH PUMP AND BODY GROUND)
- Disconnect the F14 meter connector.
- Disconnect the Q5 gauge connector.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition F14-40 (L) - Q5-2 (FS) Always Below 1 Ω F14-19 (E3) - Q5-3 (FE) Always Below 1 Ω F14-40 (L) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher F14-19 (E3) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
Result:
NG
REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
Result:
OK
See step 5
- INSPECT FUEL SUCTION WITH PUMP AND GAUGE TUBE ASSEMBLY
- Remove the fuel suction with pump and gauge tube assembly. (Refer to REMOVAL [08/2015 - ] ).
- 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-3 TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION*a Front view of wire harness connector
(to Fuel Sender Gauge Assembly)*b Lower Side (to Fuel Sender Gauge Assembly) *c Connector A *d Connector B
Result:
NG
REPLACE FUEL SUCTION WITH PUMP AND GAUGE TUBE ASSEMBLY
(Refer to REMOVAL [08/2015 - ] )
Result:
OK
See step 6
- INSPECT FUEL SENDER GAUGE ASSEMBLY
- Remove the fuel sender gauge assembly. (Refer to REMOVAL [08/2015 - ]
).
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition 2 - 3 Float level F (upper) 12 to 18 Ω Float level E (lower) 405 to 415 Ω TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION*a Front view of wire harness connector
(to Fuel Sender Gauge Assembly)*b Float level F (upper) *c Float level E (lower)
Result:
OK
REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY
(Refer to REMOVAL [08/2015 - 08/2022] )
Result:
NG
REPLACE FUEL SENDER GAUGE ASSEMBLY
(Refer to REMOVAL [08/2015 - ] )
- Remove the fuel sender gauge assembly. (Refer to REMOVAL [08/2015 - ]
).
