Diagnostic Method
Calculate the Max. value (delflmax) and cumulative value (sumfl) of output voltage variation of fuel level sensor during 12.8 seconds. Judge it normal when both max. and cumulative values are not over the threshold value. Otherwise, when either of them is over the threshold value, count the diagnosis counter up. And judge NG if the counter indicated 4 counts.
- Abnormality Judgment
Judge NG when the malfunction criteria below are completed.
Judgment Value
| Malfunction Criteria | Threshold Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated times of the condition reaching follows, DELFLMAX >/= 0.2 V or SUMFL >/= 15 V where, DELFLMAX is Max. deviation of sensor output during 12.8 seconds. | >/= 4 times |
| SUMFL is integrated value of sensor output deviation during 12.8 seconds. |
Do not count the diagnosis counter up when the following conditions are completed during 12.8 seconds.
| Max - Min of tank pressure during 12.8 seconds | >/= 0.05 kPa (0.375 mmHg, 0.01 inHg) |
| Max - Min of battery voltage during 12.8 seconds | >/= 0.4V |
Time Needed for Diagnosis: 12.8 seconds x 4 times
Malfunction Indicator Light Illumination: Illuminates when malfunction occurs in 2 continuous driving cycles.
- Normality Judgment
Judge OK and clear the NG when the malfunction criteria below are completed.
Judgment Value
| Malfunction Criteria | Threshold Value |
|---|---|
| DELFLMAX | <0.2V |
| SUMFL Where DELFLMAX is Max. deviation of sensor output during 12.8 seconds. SUMFL is integrated value of sensor output deviation during 12.8 seconds. | <15V |
