See General Warning on page 1-1.
TESTING THE FUEL GAUGE/HOUR METER
See Test Procedure 25 – Fuel Gauge on page 11-33. Also see Test Procedure 26 – Hour Meter on page 11-35.
Early to mid-2007 vehicles:
With the key switch in the OFF position, the fuel gauge/hour meter fields are blank.
When the key switch is turned to ON, both fields activate.
Mid-2007 and newer vehicles:
With the key switch in
the OFF position, the fuel gauge field is blank; however, the hour meter field is always ON. When the key switch is
turned to ON, the fuel gauge field activates.
All model years:
The fuel gauge initially registers full before indicating
the actual fuel level.
The hour meter displays the number of hours of use in increments of 0.1 (one tenth) hour, but does not record
additional time unless the key switch is in the ON position and the engine is on. When recording, the hourglass
icon on the left blinks (slowly on Early 2007 vehicles).
