- STEP 1. Check with other meter.
Check to see that the speedometer, tachometer and engine coolant temperature gauge unit operate normally.
Q: Do all other meters operate?
- YES < other meters all operate. >: Go to Step 2.
- NO < one of the meters do not operate. >: Refer to INSPECTION PROCEDURE 5 .
- STEP 2. Check engine coolant temperature gauge unit connector B-112 for loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.
Q: Is engine coolant temperature gauge unit connector B-112 in good condition?
- YES : Go to Step 3.
- NO : Repair or replace the damaged component(s). Refer to HARNESS CONNECTOR INSPECTION . The engine coolant temperature gauge unit should work normally.
- STEP 3. Check the engine coolant temperature gauge unit.
Check to see that the engine coolant temperature gauge unit operate normally. Refer to ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE GAUGE UNIT CHECK .
Q: Is the engine coolant temperature gauge unit normal?
- YES : Go to Step 4.
- NO : Replace the engine coolant temperature gauge unit. The engine coolant temperature gauge unit should work normally.
- STEP 4. Check combination meter connector C-02 for loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.
Q: Is combination meter connector C-02 in good condition?
- YES : Go to Step 5.
- NO : Repair or replace the damaged component(s). Refer to HARNESS CONNECTOR INSPECTION . The engine coolant temperature gauge unit should work normally.
- STEP 5. Check the wiring harness between engine coolant temperature gauge unit connector B-112 (terminal 1) and combination meter connector C-02 (terminal 50).
