DTC P0464 FUEL LEVEL SENSOR CIRCUIT
Diagnostic Procedure
EC-415

Possible CauseNBEC0514IHarness or connector
(The vehicle speed sensor circuit is open or shorted.)
IVehicle speed sensor
DTC Confirmation ProcedureNBEC0245CAUTION:
Always drive vehicle at a safe speed.
NOTE:
If ªDTC Confirmation Procedureº has been previously conducted,
always turn ignition switch ªOFFº and wait at least 10 seconds
before conducting the next test.
TESTING CONDITION:
Steps 1 and 2 may be conducted with the drive wheels lifted
in the shop or by driving the vehicle. If a road test is expected
to be easier, it is unnecessary to lift the vehicle.
SEF196Y
WITH CONSULT-IINBEC0245S011) Start engine (TCS switch ªOFFº).
2) Read ªVHCL SPEED SEº in ªDATA MONITORº mode with
CONSULT-II. The vehicle speed on CONSULT-II should
exceed 10 km/h (6 MPH) when rotating wheels with suitable
gear position.
If NG, go to ªDiagnostic Procedureº, EC-421.
If OK, go to following step.
3) Select ªDATA MONITORº mode with CONSULT-II.
4) Warm engine up to normal operating temperature.
