Is resistance within the specification?
YES
- Fault is intermittent such that float was stuck by something. Thoroughly check that any foreign material interrupts float moment. Erase DTC and drive the vehicle to satisfy the enable condition then, go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure.
NO
- Substitute with a known-good Fuel Sender and check for proper operation. If the problem is corrected, replace Fuel Sender and go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure.
