Fuel gauge help
Posted: Tue Mar 19, 2019 2:44 pm
Hi guys trying to sort out my fuel gauge.
So long story short I had a configuration only just got the car and in going through it. One thing I noticed the coolant temp was 20degree out. I've now sorted that. I'm trying to work out the fuel gauge bearing in mind before I started it showed 1.10.
I looked in the tank and it looks half way?. Anyway I updated the config and lost all what was on there before so ivd had to start again from scratch.
Now my problem is at the unit thrre is a 5v ref into gauge sender unit and I assume the other is an earth so it's a 2 wire circuit.
The resistance from full to empty is 12 ohms to 132 ohms
How would I input this data into the dash2pro?
Does the gauge work in volts? Percentage ? Litreage it doesn't say?
I've measured the volts from full to empty and it's 1.9v empty and 0.28v full. Does this sound right?
Everything I try and input has no effect on the reading on the d2p.
Many thanks
Luke
