ABSTRACT:
A method for determining a malfunction of a pressure sensor determines that a stick malfunction occurs in the pressure sensor by an ECU calculating a difference between a maximum value and a minimum value of a voltage value output from the pressure sensor mounted in a fuel tank and determining that a malfunction has occurred in a case that the difference is less than a predetermined value.
