Test Procedure 26B – Fuel Gauge (From mid-2007)
1. Turn the key switch OFF and remove the key. Place the Forward/Reverse handle in the NEUTRAL posi-
tion. Chock the wheels.
2. Remove the center dash assembly to gain access to the back of the fuel gauge/hour meter. See Key
Switch Removal, Section 12, Page 12-24.
3. Place a sheet of insulating material between the front frame and the electrical connections on the rear
of the center dash assembly to prevent contact between the two.
4. Disconnect the orange wire from the fuel gauge/hour meter.
5. Set a multimeter to 20 volts DC and place the red (+) probe of the multimeter on the positive post of the
battery. Place the black (–) probe on the negative post of the battery. Record the voltage reading.
6. Set a multimeter to 20 volts DC and place the red (+) probe on the (2) terminal of the fuel gauge/hour
meter where the blue wire (w25) is connected. Place the black (–) probe on the (1) terminal of the fuel
gauge/hour meter with the black wire (w22)
(Figure 11-41, Page 11-37) .
7. Connect battery and spark plug wire(s). See Connecting The Battery on page 1-3.
8. Turn the key switch ON. The voltage reading should be the same as the battery voltage reading recorded
earlier. If not, check the continuity of the blue and black wires (Figure 11-41, Page 11-37) .
9. The orange wire should remain disconnected for this step. Place the black probe of the multimeter on the
(1) terminal of the fuel gauge/hour meter and place the red (+) probe on the (4) terminal of the fuel gauge/
hour meter
(Figure 11-42, Page 11-37) . The voltage reading should be approximately 4.94 volts. If the
reading is incorrect, replace the fuel gauge/hour meter.
