The engine is running.
DTC P0463 runs continuously once the above conditions are met.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The fuel level signal voltage is more than 4.25 volts.
The above condition is present for more than 10 seconds.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The control module illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) when the diagnostic runs and fails.
The control module records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. The control module
stores this information in the Freeze Frame/Failure Records.
The fuel gage defaults to empty.
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
The control module turns OFF the MIL after 3 consecutive ignition cycles that the diagnostic runs and
does not fail.
A current DTC, Last Test Failed, clears when the diagnostic runs and passes.
A history DTC clears after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles, if no failures are reported by this or any other
emission related diagnostic.
Clear the MIL and the DTC with a scan tool.
Diagnostic Aids
Use the Freeze Frame and/or Failure Records data in order to locate an intermittent condition. If you
cannot duplicate the DTC, the information included in the Freeze Frame and/or Failure Records data may
aid in determining the number of miles since the DTC set. The Fail Counter and Pass Counter can also aid
in determining the number of ignition cycles that the diagnostic reported a pass and/or fail. Operate the
vehicle within the same freeze frame conditions (RPM, load, vehicle speed, temperature, etc.). This will
isolate when the DTC failed.
Refer to the following:

DTC P0464
Circuit Description
The fuel level sensor changes resistance based on fuel level. The fuel level sensor has a signal circuit and a
ground circuit. The engine control module (ECM) applies 5 volts on the signal circuit to the sensor. The ECM
monitors the changes in this voltage caused by changes in the resistance of the sensor in order to determine fuel
level.
When the fuel tank is full, the sensor resistance is low, and the ECM signal voltage is high. When the fuel tank
is empty, the sensor resistance is high, and the signal voltage is low.
The ECM uses inputs from the fuel level sensor in order to calculate the total fuel percentage remaining in the
fuel tank. The ECM uses the fuel level information for the evaporative emission (EVAP) and misfire
diagnostics. The fuel level information is sent to the instrument panel cluster (IPC).
If the ECM detects that the fuel level sensor signal changes more than a calibrated amount within a certain time,
this DTC sets.
DTC Descriptor
This diagnostic procedure supports the following DTC:
DTC P0464 Fuel Level Circuit Intermittent
Conditions for Running the DTC

This diagnostic will be delayed for 5 seconds if one or more of the following occurs:
The change in manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor is more than 10 kPa.
The change in engine speed is more than 50 RPM.
The change in throttle position (TP) sensor is less than 2 percent.
The intake air temperature (IAT) sensor is more than -10°C (50°F).
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The ECM detects that the fuel level changes more than 3.9 percent for 7.5 seconds.

an instrument cluster gage connected to the VSS on the transaxle output shaft. The trip odometer can be reset to
zero at any time so that the driver can record the distance traveled from any starting point.
Fuel Gage
The fuel gage consists of an instrument cluster gage connected to a sending unit in the fuel tank.
The fuel gage indicates the quantity of fuel in the tank only when the ignition switch is turned to ON or ACC.
When the ignition is turned to LOCK or START, the pointer may come to rest at any position.
Temperature Gage
The temperature gage consists of an instrument cluster gage connected to a temperature sensor that is in contact
with the circulating engine coolant.
The temperature gage indicates the temperature of the coolant. Prolonged driving or idling in very hot weather
may cause the pointer to move beyond the center of the gage. The engine is overheating if the pointer moves
into the red zone at the upper limit of the gage.
Instrument Cluster Indicator Lamps
The instrument cluster contains indicator lamps that indicate the function of certain systems or the existence of
potential problems with the operation of the vehicle. The indicator lamps are replaceable. For replacement of
the indicator lamps contained in the instrument cluster, refer to Bulb Usage Specifications
and Instrument
Cluster Lamp Replacement .
Chime Module
The chime module is located above the instrument panel fuse block and will sound in order to bring attention to
one or more of the following conditions:
The lamps are ON, the door is ajar, and the ignition switch is not in ACC, ON, or START.
The seat belt is unbuckled when the ignition switch is in ON or START.
The door is open when the ignition switch is in ON or START.
The key is left in the ignition switch when the ignition is in LOCK and the door is open.
