Purpose
The fuel gauge notifies the user of the amount of remaining fuel.
Function
The instrument cluster calculates the amount of fuel in the fuel tank based on the following CAN signals and displays the fuel gauge segments.
Fuel gauge sender unit voltage signal sent from rear body control module (RBCM)
Fuel injection amount signal, vehicle speed signal sent from PCM
Fuel gauge flicker prevention function
When the instrument cluster determines that the vehicle is being driven, it retards the response with which the calculated amount of fuel is reflected to the fuel gauge. As a result, fuel gauge flicker caused by the variation of fuel surface during driving is prevented.
Refuel determination function
If the amount of fuel is changed by 5 L {1 US gal, 1 Imp gal}/2 L {0.5 US gal, 0.4 Imp gal}*1 or more while the vehicle is stopped, the instrument cluster determines that the vehicle is refueled and displays the fuel gauge segments based on the fuel gauge sender unit voltage signal from the rear body control module (RBCM).
Construction
The fuel gauge is displayed in the LCD of the instrument cluster.
The fuel gauge is consists of 15 segments.

Operation
When the ignition is switched ON (engine off or on), the rear body control module (RBCM) converts the resistance from the fuel gauge sender unit to voltage and sends it to the instrument cluster as a fuel gauge sender unit voltage signal (1).
The instrument cluster receives the fuel gauge sender unit voltage signal from the rear body control module (RBCM), and it also receives the fuel injection amount signal and vehicle speed signal from the PCM (2).
The instrument cluster calculates the amount of fuel in the fuel tank based on the signals (3).
The instrument cluster displays/turns off the fuel gauge segments according to the calculation result (4).

Inspecting Brake/Clutch Fluid Level
The brakes and clutch draw fluid from the same reservoir.
Inspect the fluid level in the reservoir regularly. It should be kept at MAX.
The level normally drops with accumulated distance, a condition associated with
wear of brake and clutch linings. If it is ...

WARNING:
Fuel is very flammable liquid. If fuel spills or leaks from the pressurized
fuel system, it will cause serious injury or death and facility breakage. Fuel
can also irritate skin and eyes. To prevent this, always complete the “Fuel

Oil Strainer
Purpose, Function
The oil strainer suctions the engine oil in the oil pan using the oil pump
vacuum. The engine oil is filtered by the internal filter at that time.
Construction
The oil strainer is installed on the suction port of the oil pump.
The oil strain ...
