A method and system (500) are described for detecting a fault of a fluid level sensing device (106) associated with an aircraft engine (10), the fluid level sensing device (106) arranged to measure a variance in a fluid level (402). The method comprises triggering a timer, while the timer is running, receiving a measurement indicative of the fluid level from the fluid level sensing device (106), resetting the timer when at least one timer-reset condition has been met, and outputting a fault signal when the timer reaches a timer threshold.
