DTC P1416: Fuel Tank Level Low

Connect TECH 2 scan tool to DLC. Check for stored DTCs. If DTC P0300, P0171, P0172, P1171 or P1172 were stored, problem is most likely caused by low fuel level. Put at least 2-3 gallons of fuel in tank. Turn ignition on. Clear all system DTCs. Drive vehicle at varying engine loads and RPM for 5 minutes. Recheck scan tool for any stored DTCs. If DTC P1416 is present, substitute known good ECM and retest system. See ENGINE CONTROL MODULE (ECM) under COMPUTERIZED ENGINE CONTROLS in REMOVAL, OVERHAUL & INSTALLATION article.
