2006 VZ Adventra LX6
Hey all kinda stumped on this issue, for the last month or so when I turned the key all you would hear is a single click and thats it, checked the battery alternator ect and it all seemed fine I dont think its the starter motor since if you jump start it, it would start just fine. All the terminals are clean its a new battery. But now after it clicks once my fuel gauge will drop and it says "Fuel Gauge Error see Dealer". ??? Any idea whats is going on ?

There’s a complex trouble shooting process. In the manual there’s a whole section on this kind of issue.

It can even be corroded contacts. I found a video the other day and posted it. It’s a bit further down the page.

I’m about to get my ugly sleep, so won’t get into the file about it. In the mean time, try what the video says. It costs nothing to do.

Not sure what is in the file but if all else is good. Check and clean the earths. The ergs won't flow if there is no path to ground!

This is about the only way to get through it.
It's a common problem now days.

Might even be something like oxidised contacts in a relay somewhere.

Toward the end of that, there’s some tests you can do without the Tech2. Just multimeter tests.
