Honda Pilot 2016-2022 (YF5/YF6) Service Manual / Parts Test Info / Low Fuel Indicator Test

Test

1. Low Fuel Indicator - Test

  1. Do the gauge control module self-diagnostic function.
    • If the low fuel indicator flashes, go to step 2.
    • If the low fuel indicator does not flash, replace the gauge control module.
  2. Check for body electrical system DTCs.
    • If any DTCs are indicated, do the indicated DTC's troubleshooting.
    • If no DTCs are indicated, go to step 3.
  3. Do the fuel gauge sending unit test.

MICU Input Test

NOTE:

  • Before testing, check for DTCs. If any DTCs are indicated, troubleshoot those DTCs first.
  • If you are troubleshooting multiple DTCs, be sure to follow the instructions in B-CAN System Diagnosis Test Mode A.
  • Before testing, make sure the No. C29 (7.5 A) and No. D4 (7.5 A) fuses in the under-dash fuse/relay box is OK.
  • Before testing, make sure the No. D4 (7.5 A) fuse in the auxiliary under-dash fuse/relay box is OK.

1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

2. Disconnect under-dash fuse/relay box connectors D, E, M, P, and R.

NOTE: All connector views are shown from the wire side of the female terminals.

3. Inspect the connectors and socket terminals to be sure they are all making good contact:

  • If the terminals are bent, loose, or corroded, repair them as necessary, and recheck the system.
  • If the terminals are OK, go to step 4.

4. With the connectors still disconnected, do the following input tests:

  • If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
  • If all the input tests prove OK, go to step 5.
