    Fuel gauge reads low or drops to empty in Park / Neutral (normal characteristic)

    Why it happens:The VCM/PCM is the buffer for the fuel gauge.

    • What it does not lead to:On an automatic transmission no buffering takes place in park or neutral; this is a normal characteristic and no repairs are necessary.

    Fuel module reservoir assembly: fuel pump wire connectors may overheat - recall 05V-155

    Why it happens:The fuel module reservoir assemblies contain fuel pump wire connectors that may overheat under certain operating conditions.

    • If left:If the ignition circuit wire is exposed, the fuel pump fuse blows, disabling the pump and causing a stall or no-start.
    • If left:Enough heat at the pass-through connector may make a hole in it, which may light the 'Service Engine Soon' light during the emission system diagnostic routine.
    • If left:Fuel vapor and in some cases liquid fuel may leak from the tank through the hole in the connector body.
    • If left:Fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source could result in a fire.
    • If left:If the ignition circuit or ground wire is exposed and shorts to the fuel level sender card wires, fuel level readings may be inaccurate.
    • If left:Engine stall can occur if bare wire exposed by melted insulation shorts against a ground or ground wire and the fuel pump relay fuse blows, or if the vehicle runs out of fuel because a short between the fuel pump wiring and the level sensor wiring makes the fuel gauge read inaccurately.

    Caution:After removing the connector, be sure the O-ring does not remain in the cover.

3 records that touch this generation only at its boundary (model year 2000); not counted for this vehicle

In model year 2000 the previous generation was also sold under the same name. These records state no other model year of this generation, and either state years outside it or call the vehicle the old style: they do not say which generation they mean, so they are not counted among the causes or under the cards. The ground for the shared year:

01-03-08-001; Revised Fastener Tightening Specifications; 2000 Chevrolet and GMC C/K Pickup and Utility Models (Classic), 2000 Cadillac Escalade
