STEP	INSPECTION	ACTION
1	• Turn the ignition (F2, G6)/engine (WE-C, WL-3, WL-C, WLT-1, WLT-2) switch to the ON position. • Verify that the fuel gauge needle does not move after ignition (F2, G6)/engine (WE-C, WL-3, WL-C, WLT-1, WLT-2) switch is turned off, or the display does not indicate F even though fuel tank is full. • Is the fuel gauge normal?	Yes	Troubleshooting completed.
No	Go to the next step.
2	• Start the instrument cluster input/output check mode. • Select the check code 22. • Display value is 5—199?	Yes	Go to the next step.
No	Go to Step 4.
3	• Perform the check code 23 inspection. • Is there any malfunction?	Yes	Replace the instrument cluster.
No	Go to the next step.
4	• Perform the check code 22 inspection. • Is there any malfunction?	Yes	Go to the next step.
No	Go to Step 6.
5	• Turn the ignition (F2, G6)/engine (WE-C, WL-3, WL-C, WLT-1, WLT-2) switch off. • Inspect the instrument cluster connector terminals for poor connection (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, and corrosion). • Are the terminals normal?	Yes	Replace the instrument cluster.
No	Repair or replace the terminal.
6	• Turn the ignition (F2, G6)/engine (WE-C, WL-3, WL-C, WLT-1, WLT-2) switch to LOCK position. • Remove the instrument cluster. • Disconnect the instrument cluster connector. • Inspect for continuity between the following wiring harnesses. ― 2K terminal—GND • Is there continuity?	Yes	Repair or replace the wiring harness between the instrument cluster and GND.
	No	Go to the next step.
7	• Turn the ignition (F2, G6)/engine (WE-C, WL-3, WL-C, WLT-1, WLT-2) switch off. • Inspect the fuel gauge sender unit connector terminals for poor connection (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, and corrosion). • Are the terminals normal?	Yes	Go to the next step.
No	Repair or replace the terminal.
8	• Turn the ignition (F2, G6)/engine (WE-C, WL-3, WL-C, WLT-1, WLT-2) switch to LOCK position. • Inspect for continuity following the wiring harness between instrument cluster and fuel gauge sender unit. ― 2K terminal—B terminal ― 2I terminal—C terminal • Is there continuity?	Yes	Go to the next step.
No	Repair or replace the wiring harness between the instrument cluster and the fuel gauge sender unit.
9	• Turn the ignition (F2, G6)/engine (WE-C, WL-3, WL-C, WLT-1, WLT-2) switch off. • Is the fuel gauge sender unit installed properly?	Yes	Inspect the fuel gauge sender unit.
No	Reinstall the fuel gauge sender unit.

STEP

INSPECTION

ACTION
