5. Remove the sensor assembly from the fuel tank (see accompanying illustration). Try not to bend the float lever.
6. Connect the ohmmeter to the terminals of the electrical connector (see accompanying illustration) and measure the electrical resistance of the sensor. The measurement should be made at three float positions corresponding to different degrees of filling of the tank (empty, half full and full). Compare results with requirements Specifications.
7. If the measurement results noticeably deviate from the norm, replace the sensor.
