Fuel Gage

The instrument panel cluster (IPC) displays the fuel level as determined by the engine control module (ECM). The IPC receive serial data messages from the body control module (BCM) indicating the fuel level volume. The fuel gage defaults to empty (E) if:

• The ECM detects a malfunction in the fuel level sensor circuit.
• The IPC detects a loss of serial data communications with the BCM.

When the fuel level is less than a certain low percentage, LOW FUEL message displays in the driver information center (DIC).
