Circuit Description

The PCM monitors resistance of fuel level sensor (tank sender) to calculate the amount of fuel in fuel tank, and provides voltage to tank sender through a resistor network and a return to PCM ground. DTC will set when signal voltage at PCM does not change a calibrated amount after vehicle has been driven a long distance (greater than 30 miles).
