Condition

Some customers may comment that the fuel gage reads empty when there is fuel in the tank. Also, the driver information center may display the "Fuel Level Low" message.

A scan tool may reveal DTC P2066 set in the ECM.

Cause

An issue with the ECM software has been identified that will cause the ECM to increment the fuel used incorrectly if the vehicle is driven for a number of short trips with frequent key cycles between refueling events.

Correction

If routine diagnosis using SI does not reveal any obvious cause, then reprogram the ECM with updated calibration files using the TIS2WEB Service Programming System (SPS) application.
