INSPECTION
LED (LIGHT EMITTING DIODE)
Check that the LEDs illuminate (FI light and Oil pressure indica-
tor light) immediately after turning the ignition switch on. Also,
check the other LEDs for their lighting (Neutral indicator light,
High-beam indicator light and turn signal indicator light) in accor-
dance with their switch positions.
If the LED fails in operation, replace the speedometer unit with a
new one after checking its wire harness/coupler.
FUEL LEVEL GAUGE
• Remove the fuel pump assembly. (!Page 96)
• Measure the resistance at each fuel level gauge float position.
If the resistance is incorrect, replace the fuel level gauge with
a new one.
Float position
34.8 mm (1.37 in)
142.9 mm (5.63 in)
FUEL LEVEL INDICATOR
If the fuel level indicator A does not function properly, check the
fuel level gauge and its lead wire/coupler.
If the fuel level gauge and its lead wire/coupler are functioning
properly, replace the speedometer with a new one.
OIL PRESSURE INDICATOR
NOTE:
Before inspecting the oil pressure switch, check if the engine oil
level is correct. (!VL1500 Service Manual 2-6)
• Disconnect the oil pressure switch lead wire from the oil pres-
sure switch.
• Turn the ignition switch ON.
• Check if the oil pressure indicator B will light, when grounding
the lead wire.
If any indications are abnormal, replace the combination
meter with a new one after checking connection of couplers.
Resistance
