What causes fuel sensor failure?

The most common problem that causes the fuel gauge to read incorrectly is a bad fuel sending unit. The fuel sending unit is used to measure the amount of fuel in the fuel tank and communicate the fuel level to the fuel gauge on the vehicle dashboard.

How do I reset my fuel level sensor?

Can you reset your fuel gauge?

Turn your car's ignition to the "on" position to turn its power on without turning the engine on.

From there, press the odometer or trip meter button until the odometer is in "ODO" mode.

Turn off the ignition.

After that, press and then hold the odometer or trip button.

Release the button.


Please respond to my effort to provide you with the best possible solution by using the "Acceptable Solution" and/or the "Helpful" buttons when the answer has proven to be helpful.
