Signal Circuit Inspection
- Check for open in harness
- Ignition "OFF"
- Disconnect Fuel sender connector
- Ignition "ON" & Engine "OFF"
- Measure voltage between terminal 1 of sensor harness connector and chassis ground.
Specification: approximately 5V
- Is measure voltage within Specification?
YES
- Go to "Check for short to ground in harness" below.
NO
- Open circuit or short circuit to chassis ground between Fuel sender harness connector and PCM connector.
- Repair as necessary and then go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure.
NOTE: In case, when the Fuel sender connector is disconnected, the voltage of Fuel sender terminal 3 is 0 V.- Possible cause: Open or short between terminal 21 of PCM and terminal 3 of Fuel sender.
- Check for short to ground in harness
- Ignition "OFF"
- Disconnect Fuel sender connector and PCM connector.
- Ignition "ON" & Engine "OFF"
- Measure resistance between terminal 1 and 3 of Fuel sender harness connector.
Specification: infinite
- Is measure resistance within Specification?
YES
- Go to "COMPONENT INSPECTION " procedure.
NO
- Short circuit to ground between Fuel sender harness connector and sender signal circuit.
- Repair as necessary and then go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure.
NOTE: In case, when the Fuel sender connector is disconnected, the voltage of Fuel sender terminal 3 is 0 V.- Possible cause: Open or short between terminal 21 of PCM and terminal 3 of Fuel sender.
