DESCRIPTION
The meter CPU uses the fuel sender gauge assembly to determine the level of the fuel in the fuel tank.
The resistance of the fuel sender gauge will vary between approximately 15 Ω with the float at the full position, and 410 Ω with the float at the empty position. The meter outputs battery voltage through two 820 Ω resistors that are mounted in parallel inside the meter ECU. The meter CPU measures the voltage between the variable resistor in the fuel sender gauge and the two resistors mounted in parallel in the meter. Voltage measured at this point will vary as the float of the fuel sender gauge is moved. The highest voltage observed should be approximately half of battery voltage.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1 PERFORM ACTIVE TEST BY INTELLIGENT TESTER
METER:
OK: Needle indication is normal.
2 READ VALUE OF INTELLIGENT TESTER
METER:
OK: Fuel value signal displayed on the tester is almost the same as needle indication
3 INSPECT FUEL SENDER GAUGE ASSEMBLY
Standard resistance: Fuel sender gauge
4 CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY - FUEL SENDER GAUGE ASSEMBLY)
Standard resistance

Idle Control System Malfunction
DTC P0505 Idle Control System Malfunction
DESCRIPTION
The idling speed is controlled by the ETCS (Electronic Throttle Control
System). The ETCS is comprised
of: 1) the one valve type throttle body; 2) the throttle actuator, which
operates the throttle valve; 3) the
Throttle Position (TP) sen ...
