Fuel Gauge Unit Inspection:





Fuel Gauge Unit Resistance
1. Check that resistance value between the fuel gauge terminal and ground terminal is at standard value when fuel gauge unit float is at point F (highest) and point E (lowest).
Standard Value:
Point F: 0.9 ± 5.1 Ohms
Point E: 102.3 ± 117.7 Ohms
2. Check that resistance value changes smoothly when float moves slowly between point F (highest) and point E (lowest).


Fuel Gauge Unit Float Height:





Fuel Gauge Unit Float Height
Move float and measure the height at point F (highest) and point E (lowest) with float arm touching stopper.
Standard Value:
Point F: 141.0 mm (5.551 in.)
Point E: 46.0 mm (0.181 in.)
