How Does the Fuel Gauge Work?
1 Answers
The working principle of the fuel gauge is based on the magnetic field principle. The fuel gauge on the engine can display the fuel level, which can be either a pointer-type or a digital display. The fuel gauge is one of the instrument devices in the motorcycle's signal system, used to display and monitor the fuel reserve and consumption in the fuel tank. This allows the rider to have a clear view of the fuel level and consumption during the ride, enabling timely refueling and accurate fuel measurement. Pointer-type fuel gauges are divided into combined and standalone types. Combined gauges are more common in scooters, consisting of a fuel gauge along with a tachometer, odometer, water temperature gauge, and charging ammeter, forming a large instrument cluster. Standalone fuel gauges are composed of a single fuel gauge and are more commonly found in retro-style and cruiser motorcycles.
