Speedometer
1. Using a speedometer tester, test the speedometer for allowable indication error and check the operation
of the odometer.
2. Check the speedometer for fluctuation and abnormal noise.
Standard indication(km/h) Allowable range(km/h)
40 42.1 - 46.0
80 84.2 - 89.7
120 126.3 - 135.1

1) Ifsignificant fluctuation occurs or the speedometer does no move at all, remove the
speedometer cable. If normal, replace the speedometer assembly.
2) Tire wear and improper inflation will increase speedometer error.

Standard indication(mph) Allowable range(mph)


30 30 - 32
60 60 - 63
90 90 - 94.5

Tachmeter
1. Compare the tester and tachometer indications. If there is significant error, replace the tachometer.
Standard indication(rpm) Allowable range(rpm)
1000 880 - 1,060
2000 1,940 - 2,180
3000 2,940 - 3,240
4000 3,952 - 4,300
5000 4,940 - 5,360
6000 5,940 - 6,420

When removing or installing the tachometer, be careful not to drop it or subject it to sharp impact.

Fuel Gauge
1. Disconnect the connector from the fuel tank unit.
2. Connect the red lead of the SST to Y wire of the connector and the black lead to a ground.

3. Set the checker to the resistance values shown in the figure.


4. Turn on the ignition switch, and make sure the needle indicator displays the correct values.
If it does, the trouble is in the gauge unit ; if it does not, the trouble is in the meter.

1) Continue the above inspections for at least two minutes each to correctly judge the condition.
2) The allowable indication error is twice the width of the needle.

Fuel Tank Gauge Unit


1. Connect an ohmmeter to the tank unit.
2. Move the unit arm slowly from point (F) to point (E) and read the resistance value. If not correct, replace
the unit.

To inspect the fuel tank gauge unit, remove it from the fuel tank.

Removal
1. Removal the service hole cover.
2. Disconnect the fuel tank unit connector.
3. Remove the fuel tank unit with the SST.

When working around the fuel tank, keep sparks, cigarettes and open flames away from it.

Water Temperature Gauge


1. Remove the connector from the sending unit.
2. Connect the red lead of the SST to the connector and the black lead to a ground.

3. Set the checker to the resistance values shown n the figure.


4. Turn on the ignition switch, and make sure the needle indicator displays the correct values. If it does, the
trouble is in the gauge unit, if it does not, the trouble is in the meter.

1) Continue the above inspections for at least two minutes each to correctly judge the condition.
2) The allowable indication error is twice the width of the needle.

Water thermo sensor


1. Remove the thermo sensor.
2. Place the thermo sensor in a container of water, and heat the water to 80℃(176℃).
3. Use an ohmmeter to measure the resistance.

Resistance : 499.3-57.7Ω

INSPECTION
Brake System Warning Light
1. Disconnect the connector from the rake fluid level sensor.
2. Connect a jumper wire between RB and B terminal.
3. Start the engine and check that the BRAKE warning light illuminates.

Be sure that the parking brake is fully released before checking.

4. If there is no illumination, check the fuse, bulb and wiring harness.


Brake Fluid Level Sensor
1. Connect an ohmmeter to each terminal of the brake fluid level sensor connector.Check for continuity
when the float is moved up and down. The sensor is good if there is continuity when the float is below
the “MIN” mark, and if there is no continuity when the float is above the “MAX” mark. If the sensor does
not pass this test, replace it.

Alternator Warning Light


1. Start the engine, jump the BR wire to a body ground.
2. Check that the alternator warning light illuminates.

3. If there is no illumination, check the warning lights wiring harness and alternator.

Engine Oil pressureWarning Light


1. Disconnect the connector from the oil pressure switch.
2. Start the engine, and jump the wire to a body ground.
3. Check that the “OIL” warning light illuminates. If it does not illuminate, check and replace the bulb or
sending unit or repair the wiring.

DISASSEMBLY AND ASSEMBLY


1. Disassemble in the sequence shown in the figure.
2. Assemble in the reverse order of disassembly.
