Subsection 04 (LIGHTS, GAUGE AND ACCESSORIES)
Fuel Level Indication and Low Fuel
Level Indicator Light
The multifunction gauge receives a signal from the
fuel level sensor which it uses to produce an in-
dication of fuel level in the gauge, as well as for
activating the low fuel level indicator light.
If both come on during the gauge WOW test with
B.U.D.S., but do not function with the input from
the sensor, refer to the
FUEL TANK/FUEL PUMP
section for fuel level sensor testing procedures.
If only one indication comes during the WOW test,
replace the gauge and repeat the test.
Multifunction Gauge Input Voltage Test
Disconnect multifunction gauge connector.
Turn ignition key ON.
Set engine run/stop switch to RUN.
Read voltage from vehicle harness as per follow-
ing table.

If battery voltage is not read in both voltage tests,
repair or replace the 12 Vdc input circuit wiring
and/or connectors from the relays speedo fuse to
the multifunction gauge (pin 17).
If battery voltage is measured to chassis ground
but not to pin 20, carry out a continuity test of
the multifunction gauge ground circuit wiring/con-
nector (pin 20 to ground).
Repair or replace
wiring/connectors as required.
If 12 Vdc input (pin 17) and ground circuit (pin 20)
tested good, replace multifunction gauge.
Multifunction Gauge Removal
Locate the locking tab on the gauge trim ring at
the 5 o'clock position.
Carefully insert a thin wooden tongue depressor
(or popsicle stick) between the rear steering cover
and the trim ring at the six oclock position.
