Trouble diagnosis name

(Trouble diagnosis content)

DTC detecting condition

Possible cause

P0462

FUEL LEVL SEN/CIRC
(Fuel level sensor circuit low 
input)

An excessively low voltage from the 
sensor is sent to ECM.

• Harness or connectors

(The CAN communication line is open or shorted)

• Harness or connectors

(The sensor circuit is open or shorted)

• Combination meter
• Fuel level sensor

P0463

FUEL LEVL SEN/CIRC
(Fuel level sensor circuit high 
input)

An excessively high voltage from 
the sensor is sent to ECM.

EC-356

< DTC/CIRCUIT DIAGNOSIS >

[VK56VD]

P0500 VSS

P0500 VSS

Description

INFOID:0000000006217857

The vehicle speed signal is sent to the “combination meter” from the “ABS actuator and electric unit (control
unit)” by CAN communication line. The “combination meter” then sends a signal to the ECM by CAN commu-
nication line.

DTC Logic

INFOID:0000000006217858

DTC DETECTION LOGIC

NOTE:
• If DTC P0500 is displayed with DTC UXXXX, first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC UXXXX.
• If DTC P0500 is displayed with DTC P0607, first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC P0607. Refer

to 

EC-378, "DTC Logic"

.

DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE

1.

INSPECTION START

1.

Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.

2.

Turn ignition switch ON.

3.

Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.

Will CONSULT-III be used?

YES

>> GO TO 2.

NO

>> GO TO 4.

2.

CHECK VEHICLE SPEED SIGNAL

NOTE:
This procedure 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.

 WITH CONSULT-III

1.

Start engine (VDC switch OFF).

2.

Read “VHCL SPEED SE” in “DATA MONITOR” mode with CONSULT-III.
The vehicle speed on CONSULT-III should exceed 10 km/h (6 MPH) when rotating wheels with suitable
gear position.

Is the inspection result normal?

YES

>> GO TO 3.

NO

>> Go to 

EC-357, "Diagnosis Procedure"

.

3.

PERFORM DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE

1.

Select “DATA MONITOR” mode with CONSULT-III.

2.

Warm engine up to normal operating temperature.

3.

Maintain the following conditions for at least 50 consecutive seconds.

CAUTION:

Always drive vehicle at a safe speed.

DTC No.
