- Fuel Level Sensor 2 Circuit Low Voltage

Diagnostic Fault Information

Important: Always perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle prior to using this diagnostic procedure. Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview






Circuit/System Description

The secondary (right) fuel level sender changes resistance in response to the fuel level. The engine control module (ECM) monitors the signal circuit of the secondary (right) fuel level sender in order to determine the fuel level. When the fuel tank is full, the secondary (right) fuel level sender resistance is high and the ECM senses a high signal voltage. When the fuel tank is empty, the secondary (right) fuel level sender resistance is low and the ECM senses a low signal voltage. The ECM uses the signal circuit of the secondary (right) fuel level sender in order to calculate the percentage of remaining fuel in the secondary tank. The ECM sends the fuel level information via GMLAN serial data circuit to the instrument panel cluster (IPC) for display in the fuel gage. The fuel information is also used for misfire and evaporative emission (EVAP) diagnostics.

Conditions for Running the DTC

* The ignition is ON.
* The system voltage is between 9-16 volts.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

* The secondary (right) fuel level sensor voltage is less than 0.5 volt.
* The above condition is present for greater than 6 seconds.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

* The fuel gage defaults to empty.
* The driver information center (DIC) displays the FUEL LEVEL LOW message.
* The ECM records the operating conditions at the time that the diagnostic test fails. The ECM displays 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 ECM receives a clear code command from the scan tool.

Circuit/System Verification

With the scan tool installed and the ignition ON, the Fuel Level Sensor Right Tank parameter in the ECM EVAP Data List indicates a value at or less than 0.5 volts.

Circuit/System Testing

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the secondary (right) fuel level sensor connector.
2. Ignition ON, with the scan tool observe the Fuel Level Sensor Right Tank parameter. Verify the Fuel Level Sensor Right Tank parameter is 4.5 volts or greater.

If the Fuel Level Sensor Right Tank parameter is less than 4.5 volts, test the fuel level sensor signal circuit for a short to ground. If the secondary (right) fuel level sensor circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.

3. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the secondary (right) fuel level sensor.

Repair Instructions
