INSPECTION PROCEDURE 4: Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge does not Work.: Diagnosis

Required Special Tool: 

MB991223: Harness Set

  1. 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? 

    1. YES < other meters all operate. >:  Go to Step 2.
    2. NO < one of the meters do not operate. >:  Refer to INSPECTION PROCEDURE 5  .
  2. 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? 

    1. YES :  Go to Step 3.
    2. NO :  Repair or replace the damaged component(s). Refer to HARNESS CONNECTOR INSPECTION . The engine coolant temperature gauge unit should work normally.
