FUEL METER INSPECTION

To test the fuel meter, perform the following tests.
Test 1
This test will determine if the fuel meter is operating.
• Open the seat. ($5-5)
• Disconnect the fuel level gauge coupler. ($4-2)
• Connect a jumper wire between the Y/B and B/W lead wires
coming from the wire harness.
• Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
• The fuel meter should indicate "F" (full).
Test 2
This test will determine the accuracy of the fuel meter in the "E"
(empty) and "F" (full) positions.
• Connect a 95 Ω resistor between the Y/B and B/W lead wires.
• The fuel meter is operating correctly if the needle moves to
"E" (empty) when the ignition switch is turned on.
• Replace the 95 Ω resistor with a 10 Ω resistor.
• The fuel meter is operating correctly if the needle moves to
"F" (full) when the ignition switch is turned on.
