P0462 - FUEL LEVEL SENSOR A CIRCUIT LOW
| Description: | The powertrain control module (PCM) monitors the fuel level input (FLI) circuit for electrical failure. The test fails when the signal moves below the minimum allowable calibrated parameter for a specified fuel fill percentage in the fuel tank. | ||
| Possible Causes: |
|
||
| Diagnostic Aids: | Monitor the FLI and FLI V PIDs in key on, engine running (KOER). A concern is present if the FLI PID is at 25% fill and the FLI V PID is less than 0.90 volt with a non-matching fuel gauge or the FLI PID is at 75% fill and the FLI V PID is greater than 2.45 volts with a non-matching fuel gauge. | ||
| Application | Key On Engine Off | Key On Engine Running | Continuous Memory |
