| Description of the problem | Nissan 2006 frontier, bad fuel level sensor, as per trouble code p0463. I have researched this online and have found hundreds of complaints for all different types of nissans having the same problem as myself. Basically service engine light comes on and gas gauge works intermittently, gives false reading of amount of fuel in tank. I personally have run out of gas on several occasions as a result. This problem started at approx 55k miles, this is consistent with other peoples complaints as well. |
