Triple Meters

System Description

TRIPLE METER




- Fuel consumption gauge, oil pressure gauge and voltmeter are controlled by the triple meter.
- Meters/gauges can be checked in self-diagnosis mode of combination meter.

POWER SUPPLY AND GROUND CIRCUIT

Power is supplied at all times
- through 10 A fuse [No. 19, located in the fuse block (J/B)]
- to triple meter terminal 1 and
- to combination meter terminal 21.

With the ignition switch in the ON or START position, power is supplied
- through 10 A fuse [No. 14, located in the fuse block (J/B)]
- to triple meter terminal 2 and
- to combination meter terminal 22.

With the ignition switch in the ACC or ON position, power is supplied
- through 10 A fuse [No. 6, located in the fuse block (J/B)]
- to triple meter terminal 6 and
- to combination meter terminal 37.

Ground is supplied
- to triple meter terminals 3 and 4 and
- to combination meter terminals 23, 25 and 28
- through body grounds M57, M61 and F14.

FUEL CONSUMPTION GAUGE
The fuel consumption gauge displays the average fuel consumption according to signal from the combination meter. Average fuel consumption is calculated by signals from the ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) (with 5-speed A/T) or vehicle speed sensor (except 5-speed A/T) and the ECM.

OIL PRESSURE GAUGE
The oil pressure gauge indicates engine oil pressure.

With the ignition switch in the ON or START position, power is supplied
- through triple meter terminal 9
- to oil pressure sensor terminal 1.

Ground is supplied
- through triple meter terminal 11
- to oil pressure sensor terminal 3.

Triple meter receives oil pressure signal from oil pressure sensor
- through oil pressure sensor terminal 2
- to triple meter terminal 10.

VOLTMETER
When the ignition switch is turned to the ON position, the voltmeter indicates the battery voltage. While the engine is running, it indicates the generator voltage of about 13 to 15 volts.

With the ignition switch in the ON or START position, power is supplied
- through 10 A fuse [No. 14, located in the fuse block (J/B)]
- to triple meter terminal 2.

Ground is supplied
- to triple meter terminals 3 and 4
- through body grounds M57, M61 and F14.
