Genuine VOLVO Fuel Level Sensor Assembly — Diesel Tank Fuel Sender Monitoring Solution
The Genuine VOLVO Premium Heavy‑Duty Fuel Level Sensor Assembly (Part Numbers: 14559246 / VOE 14559246 / 14546518), also known as Diesel Tank Fuel Sender Unit, measures real‑time diesel volume via float‑operated variable resistance. It transmits linear ohm signal to V‑ECU (11381435) for cabin display (14390065) and telematics system (14561391). Replacing corroded or stuck sensors eliminates false fuel gauge readings and prevents engine fuel starvation.
Core Technical Advantages
Chemical‑Resistant Nitrile Float: Resists degradation from ultra‑low‑sulfur diesel and biodiesel.
Hermetically Sealed Ceramic Resistor: Prevents contact wear from fuel contaminants, moisture and sulfur deposits.
Zinc‑Plated Corrosion‑Proof Flange: Provides leak‑proof mounting on fuel tanks with precision bolt holes.
Vibration‑Damped Guide Rod: Reduces float shaking under rough‑terrain operation.

Critical B2B Procurement & Maintenance Guidelines
B2B Procurement Strategy
Fuel sensors fail from condensation, fuel acidity and float damage, leading to engine starvation and high‑cost fuel system bleeding. Stock 14559246/14546518 for fleet maintenance. Cross‑sell with fuel filters and engine wiring harness (14597767) for full fuel system upgrade.
Common Failure Symptoms
Fuel gauge permanently stuck on Empty or Full due to open‑circuit resistor damage
Erratic jumping fuel level readings caused by worn conductive resistor coating
Diesel leakage from tank top due to degraded flange sealing gasket
Disconnect main battery and ensure no open flames near fuel tank before replacement. Clean tank top thoroughly to avoid debris entering fuel system. Install new Viton gasket, torque bolts in star pattern evenly, secure waterproof connector and test fuel gauge accuracy.
