DTC P0460 FUEL LEVEL SENSOR
Component Description
INFOID:0000000001326226
The fuel level sensor is mounted in the fuel level sensor unit. The
sensor detects a fuel level in the fuel tank and transmits a signal to
the “unified meter and A/C amp.”. The “unified meter and A/C amp.”
sends the fuel level sensor signal to the ECM through CAN commu-
nication line.
It consists of two parts, one is mechanical float and the other is vari-
able resistor. Fuel level sensor output voltage changes depending on
the movement of the fuel mechanical float.
On Board Diagnosis Logic
INFOID:0000000001326227
NOTE:
• If DTC P0460 is displayed with DTC U1000 or U1001, first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC
U1000, U1001. Refer to
• If DTC P0460 is displayed with DTC U1010, first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC U1010. Refer
.
When the vehicle is parked, naturally the fuel level in the fuel tank is stable. It means that output signal of the
fuel level sensor does not change. If ECM senses sloshing signal from the sensor, fuel level sensor malfunc-
tion is detected.
DTC Confirmation Procedure
INFOID:0000000001326228
NOTE:
If DTC Confirmation Procedure has been previously conducted, always turn ignition switch OFF and wait at
least 10 seconds before conducting the next test.
1.
Start engine and wait maximum of 2 consecutive minutes.
2.
Check 1st trip DTC.
3.
If 1st trip DTC is detected, go to

INFOID:0000000001326232
NOTE:
• If DTC P0461 is displayed with DTC U1000 or U1001, first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC
U1000, U1001. Refer to
• If DTC P0461 is displayed with DTC U1010, first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC U1010. Refer
.
Driving long distances naturally affect fuel gauge level.
This diagnosis detects the fuel gauge malfunction of the gauge not moving even after a long distance has
been driven.
Overall Function Check
INFOID:0000000001326233
Use this procedure to check the overall function of the fuel level sensor function. During this check, a 1st trip
DTC might not be confirmed.
WARNING:
When performing following procedure, be sure to observe the handling of the fuel. Refer to
.
TESTING CONDITION:
Before starting overall function check, preparation of draining fuel and refilling fuel is required.
WITH CONSULT-III
NOTE:
Start from step 10, if it is possible to confirm that the fuel cannot be drained by 30 (7-7/8 US gal, 6-5/
8 Imp gal) in advance.
1.
Prepare a fuel container and a spare hose.
2.
Release fuel pressure from fuel line, refer to
3.
Remove the fuel feed hose on the fuel level sensor unit.
4.
Connect a spare fuel hose where the fuel feed hose was removed.
5.
Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds then turn ON.
6.
Select “FUEL LEVEL SE” in “DATA MONITOR” mode with CONSULT-III.
7.
Check “FUEL LEVEL SE” output voltage and note it.
8.
Select “FUEL PUMP” in “ACTIVE TEST” mode with CONSULT-III.
9.
Touch ON and drain fuel approximately 30 (7-7/8 US gal, 6-5/8 Imp gal) and stop it.
10. Check “FUEL LEVEL SE” output voltage and note it.
11. Fill fuel into the fuel tank for 30 (7-7/8 US gal, 6-5/8 Imp gal).

WITH GST
NOTE:
Start from step 8, if it is possible to confirm that the fuel cannot be drained by 30 (7-7/8 US gal, 6-5/8
Imp gal) in advance.
