Fuel pump:
- Difficulty starting the engine or intermittent stalling.
- Reduced fuel pressure, leading to performance issues.
- Unusual noises coming from the fuel tank area, such as a whining or buzzing sound.
- Check engine light illumination due to a trouble code related to the fuel system.
Fuel pump sensor:
- Incorrect fuel level readings on the instrument cluster.
- Fuel gauge fluctuating or showing inaccurate levels.
- The fuel gauge may read empty even when there's fuel in the tank.
- Check engine light on due to a sensor-related fault code.
To accurately identify the faulty component, it's best to have a professional mechanic inspect and diagnose the vehicle. They can perform tests and measurements to confirm if the fuel pump or fuel pump sensor is the root cause of the issue and needs replacement.
