Circuit/System Description
The primary fuel level sensor and the secondary fuel level sensor change resistance in response to fuel level. The engine control module (ECM) monitors the signal circuit of the primary fuel level sensor and the secondary fuel level sensor in order to determine the fuel level. When the fuel tanks are full, the resistances of both fuel level sensors are low, and the ECM senses a low signal voltage on both the signal circuit of the primary fuel level sensor and the signal circuit of the secondary fuel level sensor. When the fuel tanks are empty, the resistances of the fuel level sensors are high, and the ECM senses a high signal voltage. The ECM uses the signal circuits of the primary fuel level sensor and the secondary fuel level sensor in order to calculate the percentage of remaining fuel in the tanks. The ECM sends the fuel level percentage via the GMLAN serial data circuit to the instrument cluster in order to control the fuel gage. The fuel information is also used for misfire, evaporative emission (EVAP), and other on-board diagnostics.
Conditions for Running the DTC
| • | The engine keeps running. |
| • | The system voltage is between 10.5-18 volts. |
| • | The DTC P2067 runs continuously once the above condition is present. |
Conditions for Setting the DTC
| • | The secondary sensor output is less than 0.25 volt. |
| • | The above condition is present for about 4 seconds. |
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
| • | The fuel gage defaults to empty. |
| • | The driver information center (DIC) illuminates the FUEL LEVEL LOW message. |
| • | The control module illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) on the second consecutive ignition cycle that the diagnosis runs and fails. |
| • | The control module records the operating conditions a the time of the failure. The first time the diagnosis fails, the control module stores this information into the Failure Records. If the diagnosis reports a failure on the second consecutive ignition cycle, the control module records the operating conditions a the time of the failure. The control module writes the operating conditions into the Freeze Frame and updates the Failure Records. |
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
| • | The control module turns OFF the MIL after 4 consecutive ignition cycles that the diagnosis runs but does not fail. |
| • | A current DTC, Last Test Failed, clears when the diagnosis runs and passes. |
| • | A history DTC is cleared after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles, if no failures are reported by this or any other emission related diagnosis. |
| • | Clear the MIL and the DTC with a scan tool. |

Circuit/System Verification
With the scan tool installed and the ignition ON, verify that the Fuel Tank Level Remaining parameter in the ECM EVAP Data List indicates a value at or greater than 4.9 volts.
Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the secondary fuel level sensor.
- Ignition ON, use a scan tool to verify that the Fuel Tank Level Remaining parameter is less than 0.2 volt.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the secondary fuel level sensor.
| ⇒ | If the parameter is greater than 0.2 volt, test the secondary signal circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM. |
Repair Instructions
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
