Some Nissan TITAN XD owners report experiencing challenges when replacing the fuel level sensor, particularly with a full tank of fuel. These issues often stem from the need to ensure safety by parking on a level surface, engaging the parking brake, and turning off the engine before beginning the process. Additionally, owners may encounter difficulties if they do not properly release fuel line pressure by pulling the fuel pump fuse while the engine runs, which can lead to complications if the fuse is replaced prematurely. Disconnecting the battery and securing the vehicle with chocks are also critical steps that some owners overlook, potentially leading to unsafe working conditions. Accessing the fuel tank can be cumbersome, especially if the vehicle is not jacked up correctly, and failure to follow the Electronic Service Manual (ESM) for removing the fuel level sensor can complicate the replacement process further.
