On Board Diagnosis Logic

NOTE:
  • If DTC P0461 is displayed with DTC UXXXX, first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC UXXXX.
  • If DTC P0461 is displayed with DTC P0607, first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC P0607. Refer to DTC P0607 ECM .

This diagnosis detects the fuel gauge malfunction of the gauge not moving even after a long distance has been driven. Driving long distances naturally affect fuel gauge level.
