Tester Display Fuel Input Result
Result Proceed to Fuel level data can be displayed on the Techstream A Fuel level data cannot be displayed on the Techstream B - Fuel receiver gauge indicates F (8th segment illuminated):
Result:
A
REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY (METER CIRCUIT PLATE). Refer to DISASSEMBLY [09/2016 - ]
Result:
B
See step 2
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (FUEL SUCTION TUBE WITH PUMP AND GAUGE ASSEMBLY - COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY (METER CIRCUIT PLATE))
- Disconnect the N10 fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly connector.
- Disconnect the I6 combination meter assembly (meter circuit plate) connector.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition N10-3 (FR) - I6-29 (FR) Always Below 1 Ω N10-2 (FE) - I6-30 (FE&B) Always Below 1 Ω N10-1 (FV) - I6-31 (FV) Always Below 1 Ω N10-3 (FR) or I6-29 (FR) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher N10-2 (FE) or I6-30 (FE&B) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher N10-1 (FV) or I6-31 (FV) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher Result
Proceed to OK NG
Result:
NG
REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
Result:
OK
See step 3
- INSPECT FUEL SENDER GAUGE ASSEMBLY

Result:
OK
See step 4
- Remove the fuel sender gauge assembly.
- INSPECT FUEL SUCTION TUBE WITH PUMP AND GAUGE ASSEMBLY
*a Component without harness connected
(Fuel Suction Tube with Pump and Gauge Assembly)- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition N10-1 (FV) - A-3 Always Below 1 Ω N10-2 (FE) - A-2 Always Below 1 Ω N10-3 (FR) - A-1 Always Below 1 Ω Result
Proceed to OK NG
Result:
OK
REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY (METER CIRCUIT PLATE). Refer to DISASSEMBLY [09/2016 - ]
Result:
NG
REPLACE FUEL SUCTION TUBE WITH PUMP AND GAUGE ASSEMBLY. Refer to REMOVAL [12/2018 - 05/2019] , or refer to REMOVAL [05/2019 - 07/2020] , or refer to REMOVAL [07/2020 - ]
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
