  1. Install a scan tool.
  2. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
  3. With a scan tool, observe the Fuel Level Sensor Right Tank parameter or the Fuel Tank Level Remaining parameter in the engine control module (ECM) evaporative emission (EVAP) data list.
Does the scan tool indicate that the Fuel Level Sensor Right Tank parameter or the Fuel Tank Level Remaining parameter is greater than the specified value?		 4.5 V
98%		 Go to Step 3  Go to Diagnostic Aids

  1. Turn OFF the ignition.
  2. Disconnect C420.
  3. Connect a 3-amp fused jumper wire between the signal circuit of the secondary fuel level sensor and the low reference circuit of the secondary fuel level sensor on the male terminal side of the connector.
  4. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
  5. With a scan tool, observe the Fuel Level Sensor Right Tank parameter or the Fuel Tank Level Remaining parameter.
Does the scan tool indicate that the Fuel Level Sensor Right Tank parameter or the Fuel Tank Level Remaining parameter is less than the specified value?		 0.5 V
4%		 Go to Step 6  Go to Step 4 
4 Test the signal circuit of the secondary fuel level sensor for the following:
  • An open
  • A high resistance
  • A short to voltage

Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs .
Did you find and correct the condition?		 - Go to Step 12  Go to Step 5 
5 Test the low reference circuit of the secondary fuel level sensor for an open or for a high resistance. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs .
Did you find and correct the condition?		 - Go to Step 12  Go to Step 9 
6 Test the signal circuit of the secondary fuel level sensor for the following between C420 and the secondary fuel level sensor.
  • An open
  • A high resistance
  • A short to voltage

Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs .
Did you find and correct the condition?		 - Go to Step 12  Go to Step 7 
7 Test the low reference circuit of the secondary fuel level sensor for an open, or for a high resistance between C420 and the secondary fuel level sensor. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs .
Did you find and correct the condition?		 - Go to Step 12  Go to Step 8 
8 Inspect for poor connections at the harness connector of the secondary fuel level sensor. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and Connector Repairs .
Did you find and correct the condition?		 - Go to Step 12  Go to Step 10 
9 Inspect for poor connections at the harness connector of the ECM. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and Connector Repairs .
Did you find and correct the condition?		 - Go to Step 12  Go to Step 11 
10 Replace the secondary sender module. Refer to Fuel Level Sensor Replacement - Right Side for the 4.6L engine or Fuel Level Sensor Replacement - Right Side for the 4.4L engine.
Did you complete the replacement?		 - Go to Step 12  -
11 Replace the ECM. Refer to Control Module References for replacement, setup, and programming.
Did you complete the replacement?		 - Go to Step 12  -
