A fuel level sensor detects the level of fuel in a fuel tank. A level signal detected by a float does not change in a full dead zone and an empty dead zone. During normal fuel consumption, the level signal changes according to the consumption amount. Thus when an electronic control unit, or ECU, detects that the fuel level sensor is operating normally, the ECU resets a fuel consumption amount. However, when a small quantity of fuel is supplied, the fuel consumption amount is not reset, and a measurement error may occur during failure detection. Accordingly, the ECU corrects a failure threshold value to avoid misdiagnosing a failure.
