Follow the installation instructions detailed in the following sections.
Note
When performing wiring procedures, follow the instructions in Wiring
Instructions on page 6.
2.1 FG3 Mounting Location Considerations
Before mounting the FG3, give thought to where best to place it. Consider the
following four basic points:
Weather Protection
following four basic points:
Weather Protection
– Select a weather-protected location. The FG3 is not
watertight. Water and/or moisture can seep in through the connectors
causing permanent damage! Consider an area where it will not be
exposed to water during vehicle operation or cleaning.
causing permanent damage! Consider an area where it will not be
exposed to water during vehicle operation or cleaning.
Cable Runs
– The Fuel Inlet Antenna is mounted in a Class I, Division I,
and hazardous location. The wiring is intrinsically safe and therefore must
not come within two inches of any existing wires or cable harness.
Mounting the FG3 to minimize the FIA cable length makes it easier to
adhere to this safety rule. The VIB also requires connections to power and
ground, so it should be located in an area where you can tap into these
sources easily.

Cable Routing
– It is important to keep cables from coming in contact with
moving parts, and away from parts that generate excessive heat, electrical
noise, or areas that may impede safety. Examples of these areas are the
drive shaft, fan blades, belts, adjustable steering column, alternators,
fluorescent lighting, foot pedals, radiator, and engine and exhaust
systems. Attempt to gather all conductors at a common point when routing
cables, allowing the cables to travel to the FG3 in a group. The FG3 must
be kept at least three feet from the fill pipe opening. This includes cases
where the FG3 is mounted in the trunk, as that is not a vapor-sealed area.
Wire loom is recommended for protection of the wiring.

Cable Clearance
– Maintain a minimum of six (6) inches from devices with
a strong magnetic field such as fan motors or speakers.
