    READ VALUE USING GTS (FUEL SENDER INPUT)


    1. Operate the GTS according to the display and select the Data List (Click here).

      Table 2. Combination Meter
      Tester Display Measurement Item/Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      Fuel Input Fuel sender gauge (main) input signal/Min.: 0, Max.: 127.5

      Fuel receiver gauge indicates F: 83.7 L

      Fuel receiver gauge indicates 3/4: 66.5 L

      Fuel receiver gauge indicates 1/2: 49.5 L

      Fuel receiver gauge indicates 1/4: 31.2 L

      Fuel receiver gauge indicates E: 12.5 L

      Unit: L
      OK
      Fuel value displayed on the GTS is almost the same as needle indication.

    CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (FUEL GAUGE CIRCUIT)


    1. Disconnect the E119 combination meter assembly connectors.

    2. Disconnect the N1 fuel suction with pump and gauge tube assembly connector.

    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      E119-33 (FR) - N1-3 (FR) Always Below 1 Ω
      E119-35 (FV) - N1-1 (FV) Always Below 1 Ω
      E119-17 (FE&B) - N1-2 (FE) Always Below 1 Ω
      E119-33 (FR) or N1-3 (FR) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω
      E119-35 (FV) or N1-1 (FV) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
