FUEL SETUP

The control box can read eight common fuel level sender resistance values. If your sender

is not shown in the table below, the system can be programmed to read a custom sender. If

“BUS” is selected for the sender type, the fuel level should be coming into the AUX I/O port

through the use of a BIM module. The table below shows the eight pre-programmed senders and

their respective empty and full resistance values.
