id0903d5807400

1 | Fuel gauge needle position incorrect
--- | ---
POSSIBLE CAUSE | • Fuel gauge sender unit malfunction • Instrument cluster malfunction • Connector or pin malfunction • Fuel gauge sender unit is improperly installed • Open or short circuit in wiring harness between instrument cluster and GND • Open or short circuit in wiring harness between instrument cluster and fuel gauge sender unit

Diagnostic procedure

STEP | INSPECTION | ACTION
--- | --- | ---
1 | • Turn the ignition switch to the ON position. • Is there any malfunction in the fuel gauge such as the needle not moving from the E mark, or the needle does not point to the F mark even if the fuel tank is full? • Does the high engine coolant temperature warning light illuminate or flash from 3 to 30 s when the ignition is switched ON? | 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 7—206? | 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 switch to LOCK position. • 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 switch to LOCK position. • Remove the instrument cluster. • Disconnect the instrument cluster connector. • Inspect for continuity between the following wiring harnesses. ― 2R terminal—GND ― 2T 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 switch to LOCK position. • 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 switch to LOCK position. • Inspect for continuity following the wiring harness between instrument cluster and fuel gauge sender unit. ― 2R terminal—C terminal ― 2T terminal—A 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 switch to LOCK position. • Is the fuel gauge sender unit installed properly? | Yes | Inspect the fuel gauge sender unit.
No | Reinstall the fuel gauge sender unit.
