Test 6A - Mic Temperature Gauge Faulty
NOTE:
For connector terminal identification, see CONNECTOR IDENTIFICATION
. For appropriate wiring diagram, see WIRING DIAGRAMS
at end of article.
- Ensure engine cooling system is operating properly. Repair as necessary. If engine cooling system is okay, go to next step.
- Stop DRB-II actuator tests (if necessary). Using DRB-II, select engine controller. Using DRB-II, read engine controller faults. If a coolant sensor fault is indicated, refer to appropriate G - TESTS W/ CODES article in the ENGINE PERFORMANCE Section.
- If a coolant sensor fault is not indicated, disconnect Mechanical Instrument Cluster (MIC) Black connector. With DRB-II in ohmmeter mode, check resistance on MIC Black connector sensor ground circuit (Black/Light Green wire). If resistance is more than 5 ohms, repair open circuit in Black/Light Green wire. Perform VERIFICATION PROCEDURE VER-1.
- If resistance is less than 5 ohms, remove temperature gauge. Inspect instrument cluster printed circuit board and its connectors. If printed circuit board is okay, replace defective temperature gauge. Perform VERIFICATION PROCEDURE VER-1. If printed circuit board is not okay, replace defective circuit board. Perform VERIFICATION PROCEDURE VER-1.
