Test Procedure 25 – Fuel Level Sending Unit, Continued:
6. If the readings are within the specifications listed above, the fuel level sending unit is working properly.
If the readings are incorrect, the fuel level sending unit has failed and the fuel tank must be replaced. See
Fuel Tank Removal, Section 14, Page 14-22.
7. If the readings are correct and the fuel gauge does not function correctly, check the continuity of the
orange wire from the fuel level sending unit to the fuel gauge/hour meter. Leave the battery disconnected
while checking continuity. Also check the continuity of the yellow wire from the fuel gauge/hour meter to
the key switch, and the black ground wires at the fuel level sending unit and at the fuel gauge/hour meter.
See Fuel Gauge/Hour Meter Removal, Section 12, Page 12-32.
8. If the readings are correct according to the position of the float, but give an incorrect reading on the fuel
gauge/hour meter, test the fuel gauge/hour meter. See Test Procedure 26 – Fuel Gauge on
page 11-34.
TEST PROCEDURE 26 – FUEL GAUGE
See General Warning, Section 1, Page 1-1.
Two fuel gauges were used for model year 2007 (Figure 11-37, Page 11-35 and Figure 11-38, Page 11-35) .
The terminal configuration on the back of the gauge easily denotes the type. Follow the appropriate proce-
dure. The gauge used through mid-2007 has the orange wire connected to terminal 1 whereas the gauge
used from mid-2007 has it connected to terminal 4 in the center of the gauge. In addition, the gauge used
through mid-2007 has one terminal (3) to ground it whereas the gauge used from mid-2007 has two ground
terminals (1 and 6) with a black jumper wire connecting them.
See following NOTE.
NOTE: Keep the battery connected during this test procedure.
