- Located in the gas tank
- Provides fuel level readings
- Can provide inaccurate fuel level readings when damaged
Your Nissan's Fuel Level Sensor is found inside your gas tank. It's designed to give an exact fuel level reading so that you know when you have a full tank and when you need to fill up.
A failing or non-functioning Fuel Level Sensor can cause one big issue, impacting the readings on your fuel gauge. When this takes place, you'll be unable to tell if your gas tank is nearing empty. And guessing how much fuel you have can put you, your passengers, and your Nissan Maxima at risk of getting stranded along the side of the road.
If your Fuel Level Sensor fails, the fuel gauge on your dashboard may be all over the place — full one moment and empty the next. Sometimes, it may even show that your tank is always full or always empty. These issues can be caused by a bad Fuel Level Sensor. The Fuel Level Sensor may send incorrect signals or completely fail to communicate with the components that regulate the gauge.
If your fuel gauge is giving you wrong or erratic readings, it may be time to replace your Fuel Level Sensor. When getting a new one, it's crucial that you select one specifically for your Nissan Maxima. Or else, you could continue to have similar problems if the new Fuel Level Sensor can't send the correct signals to the gauge.
