When the fuel level becomes low, a low fuel warning indicator in the instrument cluster is illuminated and a message is displayed.
The signals from the fuel level sensors are passed to the Body Control Module/Gateway Module (BCM/GWM). The BCM/GWM converts the signals into a Controller Area Network (CAN) message. The data is then passed to the Instrument Cluster (IC) on the high speed CAN chassis systems bus as a direct interpretation of the fuel tank contents in liters.
