Code P0462

Possible Causes:
1. Faulty Fuel Level Sensor
2. Fuel Level Sensor Harness is open or shorted
3. Fuel Level Sensor Circuit poor electrical connection

This thread is more so pointed toward any of you who have experienced getting this code, and actually had to take action on it because the code kept coming back. I'm interested to hear what steps you guys took, and in what order, to resolve the problem.

Today is Saturday, sometime around Tuesday I filled up my tank(91 octane), from a pretty low empty tank. I noticed the CEL, checked the code with my OFT, saw the P0462, erased it and went on with life. The next morning, cold start, I start the car and notice the code again. This morning, cold start, before heading into work, I notice the code again.

Starting to feel I might need to start looking at what needs to be replaced, and it's pretty annoying when I erase the code with my tablet, turn off, turn back on, and my car gets that "dead gas pedal", weak RPM, roll to a stop, go into neutral and the car turns off sensation. Those symptoms of having wiped a code and re-setting the ECU.

Any help is appreciated,

Thanks in advance.

Shaun
