FUEL SENDER GAUGE ASSEMBLY(for AWD) INSPECTION

PROCEDURE


  1. INSPECT FUEL SENDER GAUGE ASSEMBLY

    CAUTION:

    Perform the inspection in a well-ventilated area.

    Do not perform the inspection near an open flame.


    1. Check that the float moves smoothly between F and E.

    2. Check the fuel sender gauge assembly voltage.


      1. A001USIC01
        *a

        Component without harness connected

        (Fuel Sender Gauge Assembly)
        *b Voltage Applied between Terminals

        Apply 5 V between terminals 2 and 3.

        Note


        • Be careful when connecting the leads, as the fuel sender gauge assembly may be damaged if the leads are connected to the wrong terminals.

        • Do not apply more than 6 V to terminals 2 or 3.

        Tech Tips

        If a stable power supply is not available, connect 4 nickel-metal hydride batteries (1.2 V each) or equivalent in series.

      2. A001SFEC01
        *a

        Component without harness connected

        (Fuel Sender Gauge Assembly)

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

        Standard Voltage
        Tester Connection Float Level Specified Condition
        1 - 2 F 4.255 to 4.605 V*
        Between F and E 0.345 to 4.605 V* (Gradually changes)
        E 0.345 to 0.695 V*

        *: The output voltage changes depending on the voltage applied to the terminals.

        Output voltage (F) = (0.851 x Voltage applied to terminals) to (0.921 x Voltage applied to terminals)

        Output voltage (E) = (0.069 x Voltage applied to terminals) to (0.139 x Voltage applied to terminals)

        If the result is not as specified, replace the fuel sender gauge assembly.

  2. INSPECT NO. 2 FUEL SENDER GAUGE ASSEMBLY

    CAUTION:

    Perform the inspection in a well-ventilated area.

    Do not perform the inspection near an open flame.


    1. Check that the float moves smoothly between F and E.

    2. Check the No. 2 fuel sender gauge assembly voltage.


      1. A001USIC03
        *a Component without harness connected (No. 2 Fuel Sender Gauge Assembly)
        *b Voltage Applied between Terminals

        Apply 5 V between terminals 2 and 3.

        Note


        • Be careful when connecting the leads, as the No. 2 fuel sender gauge assembly may be damaged if the leads are connected to the wrong terminals.

        • Do not apply more than 6 V to terminals 2 or 3.

        Tech Tips

        If a stable power supply is not available, connect 4 nickel-metal hydride batteries (1.2 V each) or equivalent in series.

      2. A001TF0C01
        *a Component without harness connected (No. 2 Fuel Sender Gauge Assembly)

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

        Standard Voltage
        Tester Connection Float Level Specified Condition
        1 - 2 F 4.255 to 4.605 V*
        Between F and E

        0.345 to 4.605 V*

        (Gradually changes)
        E 0.345 to 0.695 V*

        *: The output voltage changes depending on the voltage applied to the terminals.

        Output voltage (F) = (0.851 x Voltage applied to terminals) to (0.921 x Voltage applied to terminals)

        Output voltage (E) = (0.069 x Voltage applied to terminals) to (0.139 x Voltage applied to terminals)

        If the result is not as specified, replace the No. 2 fuel sender gauge assembly.
