14 - 8 FUEL SYSTEM
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING (Continued)
FUEL LEVEL SENSOR
This procedure tests the resistance of the level sen-
sor itself. It does not test the level sensor circuit.
Refer to Group 8W - Wiring Diagrams for circuit
identification.
The level sensor is a variable resistor. Its resis-
tance changes with the amount of fuel in the tank.
The float arm attached to the sensor moves as the
fuel level changes. To test the level sensor, connect
an ohmmeter across the sensor signal and sensor
ground terminals of the fuel pump module connector
(Fig. 10). Move the float lever to the positions shown
in the resistance chart (Fig. 10). Record the resis-
tance at each point. Replace the level sensor if the
resistance is not within specifications.
FUEL INJECTORS
For fuel injector diagnosis, refer to the Fuel Injec-
tor Diagnosis charts. For poor fuel economy diagnosis
or engine miss, also refer to Transmission Driveplate
