a. Fuel Level Indicator Testing
1. The fuel level sender wiring harness leads can be
accessed from the top of the fuel tank. Disconnect
the fuel level sender wiring harness leads. With the
help of an assistant, touch both harness leads
together.
2. From the operator cab, have the assistant turn the
ignition key switch to the RUN position. DO NOT
start the engine. Observe the fuel level indicator
needle on the operator instrument cluster.
3. Turn the ignition key switch to the OFF position. The
fuel level indicator needle should return to the
EMPTY position.
b. Fuel Level Circuit Tests
If the fuel level indicator is suspected of giving a false
reading, perform the following checks:
1. If the fuel level indicator needle does not move,
check the fuel tank for fuel.
2. Check for loose or defective wiring, faulty ground
connections or corrosion on the fuel tank sender and
wiring lead.
3. If the fuel level indicator needle does not move after
the ignition key switch is turned to the RUN position,
verify whether current is flowing from the ignition
switch to the fuel level sender.
4. If the fuel level indicator does not move and a faulty
or defective fuel level sender in the fuel tank has
been ruled out and in addition, wiring and
connectors have been checked and ruled out, the
fuel level indicator is defective and the instrument
cluster must be replaced.
5. Check that the ignition terminal has current and that
the fuse in the fuse panel is not blown.
6. Check for broken, shorted, frayed, disconnected or
damaged wiring between the fuel level indicator
wiring at the cab, fuse and relay panel, ignition key
switch and from the fuel level sender on the fuel tank
through the wiring in the cab.
