MID187 Vehicle Control Unit PID96 Fuel Level Sensor (187 PID96)

The document provides diagnostic information for a fault with the vehicle control unit and fuel level sensor in a Volvo EC290B LC vehicle. It describes three fault modes detected by the vehicle control unit, including the detection conditions, symptoms, possible causes, and recommended actions for each fault mode. The first fault mode occurs when the fuel level is below the warning level, the second when the sensor voltage is below 0.5V, and the third when the voltage is above 4.5V. The recommended actions include checking the fuel level, sensor condition, and signal connections.
