P0462 Fuel level sensor circuit low input

In most case when P0462 is set it does not prevent the engine from starting, But in come case this can cause a no start, in very rare case the capacitor would short and in doing so you set a fuel level sensor circuit low and a fuel pump that is non operation, but this is a rare

 The location of the fuel pump is under the rear seat

 In this wire diagram you can see how the capacitor is in line with the fuel pump and the fuel level sensor, If the fuel sensor open this would send a high voltage to the ECM and P0462 would set and in some cases the fuel pump does not operate

 The capacitor is located in the wiring harness of the fuel pump / level sensor
