Check the 'Possible Causes' listed above. Visually inspect the related wiring harness and connectors. Check for damaged components and look for broken, bent, pushed out, or corroded connector pins.
The cost to diagnose the P0460 Mercedes-Benz code is 1.0 hour of labor. The diagnosis time and labor rates at auto repair shops vary depending on the location, make and model of the vehicle, and even the engine type. Most auto repair shops charge between $75 and $150 per hour.
Even though the vehicle is parked, a signal being varied is sent from the fuel level sensor to Engine Control Module (ECM).
The fuel level sensor is mounted in the fuel level sensor unit. The sensor detects a fuel level in the fuel tank and transmits a signal to the Engine Control Module (ECM). The fuel level sensor consists of two parts, one is mechanical float and the other side is variable resistor. The fuel level sensor output voltage changes depending on the movement of the fuel mechanical float. The fuel level is monitored during vehicle operation to ensure conditions are meet for the misfire detection monitors to run. The level sensor output can be tested with an oscilloscope when removed from the fuel tank.
