DTC P0461: Notes
DTC P0461 DETECTION CONDITION AND POSSIBLE CAUSES
| DTC P0461 |
Fuel gauge sender unit circuit range/performance |
| DETECTION CONDITION |
- PCM monitors fuel level voltage difference before and after PCM-calculated fuel consumption has reached more than 24.5 L {25.9 US qt., 21.6 Imp qt.}
. If the difference is less than 5%,
the PCM determines that fuel gauge sender unit range/performance is in error.
Diagnostic support note
- This is a continuous monitor (CCM).
- MIL illuminates if PCM detects above malfunction condition in two consecutive drive cycles or in one drive cycle while DTC for the same malfunction has been stored in PCM.
- PENDING CODE is available if PCM detects the above malfunction condition during first drive cycle.
- FREEZE FRAME DATA is available.
- DTC is stored in the PCM memory.
