Read DANGER and WARNING on page 12-1.
Testing the Fuel/Hour Gauge
See Test Procedures 26 and 27, Section 11, Page 11-36.
With the key switch in the OFF position, the fuel/hour gauge fields are black. When the key switch is turned to
ON, both fields activate. The fuel gauge initially registers
full for a brief moment before indicating the actual
fuel level.
The hour gauge displays the number of hours of use in increments of .1 hour, but does not record additional
time unless the engine is running. When the hour gauge is recording, the hourglass icon at the left of the field
blinks slowly.
Fuel/Hour Gauge Removal
1. Disconnect the battery wires as shown (Figure 12-1, Page 12-2).
2. Remove the center dash panel. See Key Switch Removal, Page 12-13.
3. Disconnect the wires from the fuel/hour gauge (Figure 12-23, Page 12-21). Do not allow wires to
touch.
4. Remove the hex nuts and lockwashers from the studs on the back side of the gauge (Figure 12-23,
Page 12-21). Remove the mounting bracket from the back side of the gauge and remove the gauge
from the center dash.
