P0462 - Fuel Level Sensor A Circuit Low

P0462 - FUEL LEVEL SENSOR A CIRCUIT LOW

Description:  The powertrain control module (PCM) monitors the fuel level input (FLI) communications network message for a concern. The test fails when the FLI signal is less than the minimum allowable calibrated parameter for a specified fuel fill percentage in the fuel tank.
Possible Causes: 
  • Empty fuel tank
  • Fuel pump (FP) module concern
  • Incorrectly installed fuel gauge
  • Damaged instrument cluster
  • Damaged fuel gauge
  • FLI circuit short to ground
Diagnostic Aids:  Monitor the FLI PIDs in key ON, engine running. A concern is present if the FLI percentage PID is at 25% fill and the FLI voltage PID is less than 0.90 volt with a non-matching fuel gauge or the FLI percentage PID is at 75% fill and the FLI voltage PID is greater than 2.45 volts with a non-matching fuel gauge.
Application  Key On Engine Off  Key On Engine Running  Continuous Memory
