Why is the fuel gauge not displaying in the new Santana?
1 Answers
Abnormal fuel gauge display in cars is usually caused by a faulty fuel level sensor (fuel float). The fuel gauge detects the fuel level through the float, and if the detection signal is distorted, such issues can occur. Some fuel level displays are computer-controlled, and if the computer signal malfunctions, it may also lead to inaccurate display, although this probability is very low. How to read the car fuel gauge: Generally, there are two English letters on the fuel gauge: 'E' stands for empty, and 'F' stands for full. The fuel gauge contains two coils, located on the 'F' and 'E' sides respectively. The sensor is a variable resistor controlled by the float height. The change in resistance determines the strength of the magnetic field in the two coils, which in turn determines the direction of the pointer's deflection. Principle of the car fuel gauge: The fuel gauge mainly consists of two parts: a measurement unit and a display unit. The measurement unit measures the fuel level in the tank, while the display unit shows the fuel level on the gauge.
