Nominal Resistance Of The Fuel Level Sensor

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Mitsubishi Lancer. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Remove the fuel pump module (Refer to FUEL TANK ).
  2. When float of the fuel level sensor is in stopper positions F and E, ensure that resistance between the fuel level sensor terminal and ground terminal is within the standard value.

    Standard value: 

    FLOAT POSITION CHART

    Float position Gauge resistance value (ohms)
    Main Sub
    Stopper position "F" 6.5 ± 1.0 6.5 ± 1.0
    Stopper position "E" 41.9 ± 1.0 78.1 ± 1.0
  3. When the float is moved slowly between stopper positions "F" and "E", ensure that the resistance is smoothly changing.
