Diagnostic Test Mode No. 3
- Control module can check operation of some instruments by generating a display signal which can indicate whether a particular gauge or meter is defective. To activate diagnostic test mode No. 3, briefly press test button 3 times. ECU will activate gauges, meters, and illuminate LEDs for 30-60 seconds throughout test. Gauges and meters should indicate as follows:
- Fuel gauge needle should indicate 1/2 full.
- Temperature gauge needle should be at edge of Red section.
- Speedometer needle should be vertical.
- Trip meter should indicate an extra .5 mile.
- Tachometer needle should be vertical.
- If gauges and meters indicate correct values during function test but incorrect values during test drive, fault is present in wiring or one of the sensors connected to instrument cluster.
