DTC P0461: Fuel Level Sensor A Circuit Range/Performance

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
P0461 - FUEL LEVEL SENSOR A CIRCUIT RANGE/PERFORMANCE

Description:  The powertrain control module (PCM) monitors the fuel level input (FLI) communications network message for a concern. The test fails when the FLI signal repeatedly moves in and out of range, exceeding the minimum or maximum allowable calibrated parameters for a specified fuel fill percentage in the fuel tank.
Possible Causes: 
  • Excessive electrical noise
  • Fuel level sensor circuit intermittent
Diagnostic Aids:  Verify aftermarket equipment does not generate the radio frequency interference / electromagnetic interference (RFI/EMI) which may cause noisy FLI input signal.
