Hello ,
Earlier today I went to start my car up engine light came on and gas gauge went to empty with gas light turning on (mind you I had alittle over half tank) . I went straight to advance auto to get the code read CODE P0463.
I checked the fuse box under hood removed the fuse and put it back in gauge seems to be working but engine light still on should I have the engine light reset and see if it does it again ? See if the gas and gauge work properly?
