Was a fault detected?

Yes - Verification

No - Replacing the component

-------------------------------------------------

Replacing the component
The central electronic module (CEM) has registered that the fuel level sensor on the right-hand side is faulty.
If the fault is intermittent, it has been registered previously but is no longer present. Intermittent faults can be caused by interference at start up of the central electronic module (CEM) or may be a different type of fault which occurs on different occasions. The fault is evaluated depending on how it occurs. Replace the fuel level sensor on the right-hand side if the fault recurs.
Replace the fuel level sensor on the right-hand side if there is a permanent fault.
Remedy as necessary.
