Engine Control - P0461 Fuel Level Sensor 'A' Circuit Range/Performance - General Information
Component Location
General Description
The Fuel Level Sensor (FLS) measures the fuel level in fuel tank and its information is used to supply the ECM with information regarding the monitoring condition of the EVAP canister purge system for leak detection. If the fuel level sensor is monitored for high or low stuck or difference between voltage of fuel level sensor and voltage deviation of fuel level sensor is exceeds limited value while driving, this is interpreted by the ECM as a fault.
DTC Description
ECM sets DTC P0461 if the calculated fuel consumption is more than 30% or the fuel level signal variation from fuel level sensor is less than 5%
