Fuel Gauge: Description and Operation
FUEL GAGE
The instrument panel cluster (IPC) displays the fuel level as determined by the engine control module (ECM). The IPC receives a GMLAN message
from the ECM indicating the fuel level percent. The fuel gage defaults to empty if:
-
The ECM detects a malfunction in the fuel level sensor circuit.
-
The IPC detects a loss of GMLAN communications with the ECM.
When the fuel level is less than a pre-determined value, the low fuel indicator illuminates in the IPC.
