Do not leave the
terminals
connected with
jumper
wire
for
a
long time, as it
causes damage
to
the fuel meter.
SYSTEM INSPECTION
WHEN
THE
FUEL
METER
BLINKS
RAPIDLY
Before performing the system inspection, check the
following:
- Battery condition
- Burned fuse
Disconnect the fuel pump 5P connector (page 7-6).
Short the fuel pump 5P connector [1] terminals
of
the
wire harness side with the jumper wire.
CONNECTION:
Yellow/white-
Blue/green
Turn the ignition switch ON and engine stop switch
"0",
check the fuel meter.
The fuel meter blinks slowly if the system circuit
is
normal.
In
that case, check the fuel level sensor (page
21-19).
If the meter blinks rapidly, check the following:
- Yellow/white wire between the fuel pump/fuel level
sensor and speedometer for
an
open circuit
- Blue/green wire between the fuel pump/fuel level
sensor and ECM for an open circuit
If the wire is normal, replace the speedometer panel
with a
new
one and recheck.
WHEN THE FUEL METER BLINKS SLOWLY
Disconnect the fuel pump 5P connector (page 7-6).
Turn the ignition switch
ON
and engine stop switch
"0",
check the fuel meter.
The fuel meter blinks rapidly
if
the system circuit
is
normal.
In
that case, check the fuel level sensor (page
21-19).
If the meter blinks slowly, check the Yellow/white wire
between the fuel pump/fuel level sensor and
speedometer for a short circuit
If the wire is normal, replace the speedometer panel
with a
new
one and recheck.
LEVEL SENSOR INSPECTION

Remove the fuel pump unit (page
7-10).
Measure the ·resistance between the connector
terminals at the float upper (full) and lower ( empty)
positions.
