Fuel Level Sensor Performance
Diagnostic Fault Information
DTC P0461
Circuit Description
The fuel level sender changes resistance based on fuel level. The powertrain control module
(PCM) monitors the signal circuit of the fuel level sender in order to determine fuel level. When
the fuel tank is full, the sender resistance is low and the PCM senses a low signal voltage. When
the fuel tank is empty, the sender resistance is high and the PCM senses a high signal voltage. The
PCM uses the signal circuit of the fuel level sender in order to calculate the total remaining fuel
percent in the tank. The PCM sends the fuel level percent via the class 2 serial data circuit to the
instrument cluster in order to control the fuel gage. The fuel level information is also used for
misfire and evaporative emission (EVAP) diagnostics.

This diagnostic tests for a stuck fuel level sender signal. The PCM sets this DTC if the fuel level
sender signal appears to be stuck based on a lack of signal variation expected during normal
operation.
Conditions for Running the DTC
The ignition is ON.
The PCM has confirmed that the fuel tank is between 15-85 percent full.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The PCM does not detect a change in fuel level of at least 3.0L (0.79 gal) over a distance of 320
km (200 mi).
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The fuel gage defaults to empty.
The LOW FUEL indicator illuminates.
The PCM records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. The PCM stores
the failure information in the Failure Records on the scan tool.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
The DTC becomes history when the conditions for setting the DTC are no longer present.
The history DTC clears after 40 malfunction-free warm-up cycles.
The PCM receives the clear code command from the scan tool.

Circuit/System Testing
1. Ignition OFF, remove the fuel level sender and verify that there is no obstructions
interfering with the fuel level sender.
If interference is present, remove the obstruction.
2. If no interference is present, replace the fuel level sender.
Repair Procedures
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.

Conditions for Setting the DTC
The fuel level signal is greater than 99 percent.
The above condition is present for greater than 20 seconds.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The fuel gage defaults to empty.
The LOW FUEL indicator illuminates.
The PCM records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. The PCM
displays the failure information in the Failure Records on the scan tool.
