150 IMPORTANT: Do not force probes into connector terminals or damage will result. Use JT07328 Connector
42 Adapter Test Kit to make measurements in connectors. This will ensure that terminal damage does not
occur.

1 Check for Blank 1. Ignition ON, engine OFF. YES: GO TO 2

Diagnostic Gauge
2. View diagnostic gauge display. NO: GO TO 3

Is diagnostic gauge display blank?

2 Check Diagnostic 1. Ignition OFF, engine OFF. YES: Replace diagnostic

Gauge Voltage gauge. 6
Supply 2. Disconnect diagnostic gauge 6-pin connector.
NO: Fix problem. GO TO 6
3. Perform Terminal Test on connector.

4. Ignition ON, engine OFF.

5. On the harness, measure the voltage from the diagnostic gauge connector ignition
supply (terminal 1) to the connector ground (terminal 6).

Are terminal test results good and is voltage within 1V of battery voltage?

4 Check Connector 1. Ignition OFF, engine OFF. YES: GO TO 5

2. Access view of rear of diagnostic gauge and determine which of the two connectors NO: Connect to the
on the diagnostic gauge that the wire harness is connected. left-side connector. GO
TO 6
NOTE: The diagnostic gauge left-side connector, as viewed from the rear of the gauge,
should be connected to the wire harness containing the CAN wires. The right-side
connector is used to connect the diagnostic gauge to optional analog gauges.

Is application wire harness 6-way connector containing the CAN wires connected to
the diagnostic gauge left-side connector, as viewed from the rear of the gauge?

5 Check CAN Wiring 1. Disconnect diagnostic gauge connector. YES: Replace diagnostic
gauge. GO TO 6

2. On the harness, measure the resistance between the diagnostic gauge CAN High
150
(terminal 2) and diagnostic connector CAN High (terminal C). NO: Fix CAN wiring. GO
43
TO 6
3. On the harness, measure the resistance between the diagnostic gauge CAN Low
(terminal 3) and diagnostic connector CAN Low (terminal D).

Are both resistance measurements less than 10 ohms?

– – –1/1

6 Verification 1. Ignition OFF, engine OFF. YES: Problem fixed.

2. Reconnect all electrical connectors. NO: GO TO 1

3. Ignition ON, engine ON.

4. Check diagnostic gauge operation.

Does diagnostic gauge display engine information?
